Description
Brush is crafted from a feather, copper ingot, and stick in a vertical recipe. Its purpose is archaeology: using it on suspicious sand or suspicious gravel slowly clears the block and releases the hidden item inside. Breaking those fragile blocks normally destroys the contents, so the tool is required for proper excavation.
Players search desert temples, desert wells, trail ruins, ocean ruins, and other structures for brushable blocks. Loot can include pottery sherds, armor trim templates, emeralds, dyes, and location-specific rewards. The slow animation makes digging feel deliberate rather than instant mining. It also gives copper a practical early-game use beyond decoration and spyglasses.
