'''Gargoyle Tools''' are three rare specialty tools — the '''Gargoyle's Knife''', '''Gargoyle's Pickaxe''', and '''Gargoyle's Axe''' — that drop from various gargoyle creatures. Each tool upgrades the resource it gathers by '''one tier''' above what the creature or vein would normally yield. All three tools have limited uses and are consumed when depleted.

==Overview==

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Tool !! Resource Type !! Upgrade Effect !! Uses !! Elemental Chance
|-
| Gargoyle's Knife || Leather || Upgrades hide one tier when carving a corpse || 45–125 || 20%
|-
| Gargoyle's Pickaxe || Ore || Upgrades ore vein one tier when mining || 101–125 || 15%
|-
| Gargoyle's Axe || Wood || Upgrades wood vein one tier when lumberjacking || 45–125 || 15%
|}

If the resource is already at the highest tier, it remains at that tier. Every use has a chance to spawn a hostile '''Elemental''' matching the upgraded resource type, adding a risk-versus-reward element to using these tools.

==Gargoyle's Knife==

The Gargoyle's Knife is used by double-clicking it and targeting a creature's corpse. Instead of yielding the creature's normal hide type, the knife produces hides '''one tier higher'''. The knife consumes one use per carve and is destroyed when its last use is spent. In Felucca, the hide amount is doubled as usual.

===Leather Upgrade Ladder===

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Creature's Hide Type !! Knife Produces
|-
| Regular || Spined
|-
| Spined || Horned
|-
| Horned || Barbed
|-
| Barbed || Polar
|-
| Polar || Synthetic
|-
| Synthetic || Blaze
|-
| Blaze || Daemonic
|-
| Shadow || Frost
|-
| Frost || Ethereal
|-
| Ethereal || Ethereal ''(stays at top tier)''
|}

There is a '''20% chance''' per carve that a Leather Elemental will spawn and attack you. If no elemental appears, a message indicates nothing unusual happened.

==Gargoyle's Pickaxe==

The Gargoyle's Pickaxe functions as a normal mining tool but automatically upgrades the ore vein by one tier. When you mine with this pickaxe, Iron veins yield Dull Copper ore, Dull Copper veins yield Shadow Iron ore, and so on up the ladder. Platinum veins remain Platinum. The pickaxe consumes one use per swing like any mining tool.

===Ore Upgrade Ladder===

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Vein Type !! Pickaxe Produces
|-
| Iron || Dull Copper
|-
| Dull Copper || Shadow Iron
|-
| Shadow Iron || Copper
|-
| Copper || Bronze
|-
| Bronze || Gold
|-
| Gold || Agapite
|-
| Agapite || Verite
|-
| Verite || Valorite
|-
| Valorite || Blaze
|-
| Blaze || Ice
|-
| Ice || Toxic
|-
| Toxic || Electrum
|-
| Electrum || Platinum
|-
| Platinum || Platinum ''(stays at top tier)''
|}

There is a '''15% chance''' per swing that an Ore Elemental matching the upgraded ore type will spawn and attack you. No elemental spawns when mining Iron veins (upgraded to Dull Copper).

==Gargoyle's Axe==

The Gargoyle's Axe functions as a normal lumberjacking axe but automatically upgrades the wood vein by one tier. When you chop with this axe, Regular trees yield Oak logs, Oak trees yield Ash logs, and so on. Petrified veins remain Petrified. The axe consumes one use per chop like any lumberjacking tool.

===Wood Upgrade Ladder===

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Vein Type !! Axe Produces
|-
| Regular || Oak
|-
| Oak || Ash
|-
| Ash || Yew
|-
| Yew || Heartwood
|-
| Heartwood || Bloodwood
|-
| Bloodwood || Frostwood
|-
| Frostwood || Ebony
|-
| Ebony || Bamboo
|-
| Bamboo || Purple Heart
|-
| Purple Heart || Redwood
|-
| Redwood || Petrified
|-
| Petrified || Petrified ''(stays at top tier)''
|}

There is a '''15% chance''' per chop that a Wood Elemental matching the upgraded wood type will spawn and attack you. No elemental spawns when chopping Regular trees (upgraded to Oak).

==Where to Find Gargoyle Tools==

Gargoyle Tools are rare drops from gargoyle creatures found throughout the world. Each tool has a '''15% chance''' to drop from the creatures listed below.

===Gargoyle's Knife===

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Creature !! Drop Rate
|-
| [[Gargoyle Shade]] || 15%
|-
| [[Fire Gargoyle]] || 15%
|}

===Gargoyle's Pickaxe===

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Creature !! Drop Rate
|-
| [[Gargoyle]] || 15%
|-
| [[Gargoyle Enforcer]] || 15%
|-
| [[Gargoyle Destroyer]] || 15%
|}

===Gargoyle's Axe===

{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Creature !! Drop Rate
|-
| [[Gargoyle]] || 15%
|-
| [[Gargoyle Guardian]] (Abyss Guardian) || 15%
|}

==Tips==

* Gargoyle Tools are best saved for harvesting higher-tier resources. Using a Gargoyle's Pickaxe on a Valorite vein produces Blaze ore, which would otherwise require 100.0+ Mining skill and a Power Scroll to harvest naturally.
* The elemental spawn chance means you should be prepared for a fight, especially when harvesting in remote areas alone.
* In Felucca, the Gargoyle's Knife produces double hides as normal, making it especially valuable for leather farming there.
* The Gargoyle's Pickaxe and Gargoyle's Axe still require sufficient skill to find the base vein — the tool upgrades the result, not your ability to locate the vein.
* The regular [[Gargoyle]] is the only creature that can drop both the pickaxe and the axe, making it a versatile farming target.
* All gargoyle tool drops share a uniform 15% rate, so stronger gargoyles are not more likely to drop tools — but they do carry better general loot.
