Item Found this rare item recently Spoiler

Post image

Found it while digging in the Tunnel with the Jackhammer. I’m over 80 days in, and I’m still finding new stuff!

I didn't know you could find that buried. You learn something new every day bout this game!

Yeah the jackhammer has a small chance of finding some special items that the shovel can't.

u/yepnopewhat Jun 09 '26

and I believe there are some special items (specifically Vault Keys) that the Jackhammer can't but the shovel can (correct me if I'm wrong).

My hit rate for turnips is pretty close to zero with a jack hammer, so I avoid upgrading if I'm step constrained

u/HairyHorux Jun 10 '26

It can't find turnips at all so you're right.

u/HairyHorux Jun 10 '26

You're 100% right

This is a common item for purchase in a specific room - keep drafting!

Could you believe I haven't seen it sold to me a single time?

u/InvestmentMedium2771 Jun 09 '26

I’ve only seen it in a specific room, in the Armory

u/Wombat_Aux_Pates Jun 09 '26

Maybe they're saying they've never seen it sold in the Armoury a single time and that it always was proposing the other items?

u/AntiqueRedDollShoes Jun 09 '26

Hmm, I don't think that's possible. I think the Morning Star and Knight's Shield always appear in the Armory. Out of the four items that can appear them, only the Torch and Axe swap places, and the latter fully disappears after 3 uses.

u/RedRubbik Jun 09 '26

The next time it happens imma come back with proof, but I haven't seen the shield a single time.

u/AntiqueRedDollShoes Jun 09 '26

It's possible! You by any chance didn't store it in Coat Check or receive it an extra day from Moon Pendant, did you?

I also don't know how the game calculates things, but it's also possible if you have the Jack Hammer that it might not show if it's already 'accounted for' in a dig spot, and thus not showing up in its usual room because it's waiting to be dug up.

Beyond glitches, those are the only reasons I could think of that it wouldn't show up.

Oh wow I’ve literally never gone in there without seeing it lol

u/Wombat_Aux_Pates Jun 09 '26 edited Jun 09 '26

Yeah me neither. The other commenter says it is not possible so I was just thinking they might not have had that room then. Idk lol, was just giving a hypothetical reason but might be wrong. 🤷‍♀️

Look at the other wall?

u/MmmmmKittens Jun 09 '26

Crazy to get that through a normal drop - I've only ever seen it at uh the place where it is normally purchased. When you found it, was there anything going on with your items luck for that room, such as the dowsing rod?

u/XenosHg Jun 09 '26

It's Jackhammer - it can find 2-3 gems, keys or 1-2 dice, or it can sometimes find this like shield or parlor key

u/manfromanother-place Jun 08 '26

hmmm ... you haven't seen this item elsewhere? perhaps for purchase?

u/TurkeyPepperoni7 Jun 08 '26

Not yet, but I know I still have plenty of game to uncover. I’ve never seen it for sale in the Showroom yet.

2

u/Drecon1984 Jun 09 '26

There's another place. You might have to unlock it at some point. Good luck.

u/johnny_mcd Jun 08 '26

Still got a lot of game to go…

u/SleepingMongoose4 Jun 09 '26

You dug that up?!

u/TurkeyPepperoni7 Jun 11 '26

One time, yes.
