Whats the upgrade most worth getting?

[depresso]

I acquired some bars of iridium, what tool should I upgrade first? I have every tool upgraded to gold (except hoe, probably gonna upgrade it to gold soon) I only have enough bars for one upgrade
EDIT: now i have enough for 2 upgrades

Depends on your priorities. Are you focused on farming? Upgrade the watering can and hoe. Are you trying to get some more iridium? Upgrade your pickaxe. Crafting kegs? Upgrade your axe.

If you have sprinklers and Greenhouse, farming equipment matters a lot less.

I would recommend upgrading the pickaxe, personally.

have you already delievered the 1 bar to the wizard? if not, keep that in mind.

I think the pickaxe offers the biggest benefit.
You can mine faster for more iridum and it's the tool you use most often because mining will take up a large portion of the game. Like, yeah watering can also seems like a decent choice, though I'd rather go directly to iridum sprinklers unless I got a REALLY huge farming-area.

Hoe and axe are just nice to have, but nothing major.

personally i went with the pick-axe first because i had sprinklers by the time i reached iridium therefore farming equipment wasn't as important but its up to preference

Depends where you are ..

If you have access to Iridium however then the Axe. Mining is mostly explosive ammo and bombs unless you are doing it the hard way lol. And wood is a highly in demand resource.

Pickaxe, then iridium band, then 5 to repair Willy's boat, then the rest is up to you.

I accidentally gifted it to him, he threw it in the fire. I don't know how I was supposed to give it to him to fulfill that request and now I wonder if I have to restart the save.

I would do the same :
Upgrade the pickaxe and build 1-2 iridium bands since it allows you to aquire more iridium faster ... even if fast skull cavern runs are mostly bombing runs, you sometimes have to break single rocks or go for single iridium nodes or you have to fight ...

If you don't enjoy to go to skull caverns, there are peaceful ways to get iridium :
- The statue of perfection after the end of year 2 provides some free iridium ore every day.
- The statue of endless fortune from the casino has a chance to give free iridium bars.
- Crobus sells one iridium sprinkler per week on friday.

I normally save all the jade I get and duplicate as much as I can using the Crystalarium.
Buy loads of stairs from the desert trader on Sundays and dive to floor 140+ using stairs then use bombs, max luck, luck enhancing food, and triplet shot espresso's. Can easily get 100 iridum bars in one dive and at least 2-10 prismatic shards... craft any iridum stuff you need then build more Crystalariums and repeat. P.S this is a great way to get auto-petters as you don't miss any floors.
