Sets of 3 large bombs placed together can destroy mold walls. Extremely slow but it's the best consistent method available right now that I'm aware of

What is the mining damage on the nerfed ancient pickaxe?
Shut Mar 18, 2022 @ 6:12pm 
80-120 melee dmg
2.5 aspd
302 mining dmg (Scarlet was 282)
+9 mining spd
durability is the same at 800 with scarlet

hmm with ring combo (+49) and necklace (+41) and ancient pickaxe (302) and +10% mining damage from skills - I wonder if 431 is enough mining damage to break through mold walls?

You can add the helmet and chest larva pieces which also give mining.

You can also break them with a drill

i see, i'm only trying with ancient pickaxe + azeos necklace(+41) but not yet try with mining ring combo and drill or other + mining dmg may be i should try, thank you

584 mining damage can't break it. What other items can I use to increase mining damage?
Using Beak, Rings, Bronze Helm, Larva Chest, Ancient Pickaxe

Orange cave guppy food is +8 but other than that you have to level mining skill

I was able to break the mold wall still. Currently sitting at 687 mining:
Bronze Helm 5% mining damage
Azeos Beak Necklace 41 mining damage
Ancient Gem Ring 62 mining damage x2
Food: +10 mining

Now this isn't the best setup running around just to be able to mine the walls. I feel like they should maybe take 3-4 hits. With this setup they take 27 hits with max mining which is a little bonkers but they are still breakable.

Last notes I have is that without the food buff it is still doable, but it takes 48 hits instead. If there is any other gear to push it higher it may be more feasible. Also I still use the pickaxe after the nerf as my main weapon hitting for 600's and crits hit for like 1500. To be fair, before it was doing 2k+ white hits and 5-6k crits which was out of control but I feel like it's still strong if spec'd right.

In stead of using full mining set, me would prefer bring some drills and gen which is workfast and not take too many inventory slots

Drills work great. I setup 3 in a row to make roads. takes i think 13 hits so best done while watching a movie or something.

This is a nasty joke, but I have about 400 walls of mold for some reason (I don't know why either)

If the destruction of the mold wall becomes difficult, I would like to bring 400 contaminants with me to visit everyone's World.

Aezo's (?) soul effect makes a pillar of energy strike 10% of the time on crit. This energy pillar creates permanent light and can destroy mold walls. Might be an option once you're inside the biome since critting is easy and the drop rate on the pillars isn't bad.
