Now, once you’ll reach the Native Shrine, combine all the parts with the Jade Amulet you’ve picked up at the beginning of the game in Estero Park and voila – you’ve crafted your first shovel!
Pirate Shovel and Swift Shovel
There are two more optional shovels you can make. Swift Shovel will allow you to farm talismans faster, while the Pirate Shovel works the same, only better.
The Swift shovel requires a Carbon Shovel Shaft, found in the Full Mast Bar, Alloy Shovel Head which can be bought at the store, and the Ultra Shovel Handle, which will appear in the Estero Park where the scorpions used to be. Combine these with a Silver Talisman, which can be crafted by using three stone talismans and one silver ore.
The Pirate Shovel needs a cursed shovel, found in the church in Madalyn’s room, the Pirate’s Medallion, lying in the part of the island you can teleport to from the Lighthouse, Jade Talisman, and finally, the Gold Talisman.
