[[File:GTManasteelTools.png|thumb|right|[[NEI]] page for Manasteel tools]]'''Gregtech Tools''' are a class of items that can be crafted with any Gregtech compatible material, each having different durability, speed and possibly secondary enchantment effects such as Fortune, Sharpness or Silk Touch. GT tools cannot be repaired by combining nor with the [[Thaumic Restorer]]. Some GT tools include batteries in their crafting recipes and will have both durability and require EU power charge, or have multiple modes that allow them to substitute for several simpler tools.
This page explains the usage of the Gregtech tools and their interactions with various blocks and machines. If a tool is not listed here, then it is only used in crafting recipes.
 
* If a tool or part is not listed here, then it is only used for crafting.
* There is a [[:Category:Tutorials|tutorial]] covering [[Tutorials: Making Your First Tools|how to craft your first tools]] if you need it.
* ''This page covers Gregtech tools only - you may be looking for [[Tinkers Tools]] instead.''
 
== Branch Cutter ==
 
* Left click
** Guarantees sapling drop from mostvanilla treeor leaves.[[Tree_Breeding|Forestry trees]], similar to a Grafter.
** Does not work on Silverwoods nor other modded trees.
** Fortune increases the odds of secondary drops, but only one item per leaf block is dropped.
** Silk Touch drops leaf blocks instead of saplings/standard drops, like Shears.
 
== Butchery Knife ==
Line 12 ⟶ 17:
* Left click
** When used as a weapon, guarantees mobs and creatures do not explode when dealing the killing blow.
** Has some level of Looting for increased drops, dependent on material.
 
== Crowbar ==
Line 45 ⟶ 51:
 
* Right click
** Voids 1,000L of liquid or gas from a GT machine or block. or pipe.
** Removes items stuck in item pipes
 
== Saw ==
Line 83 ⟶ 90:
** Toggles "Input allowed on output side" of most GT machines. Useful for placing ME Interfaces on machines so they can auto output back into the Interface when crafting is finished.
** Increases the amperage of the 512V Creative Energy Buffer.
** Toggles settings on [[:Category:GT Covers|covers]] such as pumps, conveyersconveyors, and robot arms. Still better to use the GUI.
** Toggles Sorting and Limiting modes on input buses.
** Toggles the working radius for World Accelerators (does not work in TileEntity mode).
Line 97 ⟶ 104:
 
== Soldering Iron ==
Requires [[Electricity]]. Must be [[Charging|charged]] in order to work.
 
* Held
** Makes GT cables, wires, and pipes appear tiny so you can see around them.
** Causes decorative covers (plates, foils, AE2 facades) attached to pipes and wires to stop rendering visually, allowing you to see the wire or pipe underneath.
* Right click
** Toggles strong/weak redstone output on a GT machine side. A strong redstone signal will pierce through a block, allowing the signal to be picked up on the other side. Useful for putting howler alarms or lights adjacent to multiblock controllers.
Line 113 ⟶ 121:
*Right click
** Connects/disconnects cables and wires to each other and to machines.
** Toggles input seperationseparation on [[Alloy blastBlast smelterSmelter]]
* Shift right click
** Enables batch mode
Line 147 ⟶ 155:
* Alumite (higher durability than steel, but expensive; better once you hit LV and get a mixer)
* Firestone (higher durability than Alumite; technically doable, but highly discouraged)
* [[Nether Star]] (insane durability; technically doable at this [[tier]], but you'd be insane to do this)
 
=== LV (pre-EBF) ===
 
* Amber (bad durability but has silk touch, if you really want to put silk touch on an axe or shovel or something)
* Manasteel - (same as nether star durability; definitely worth the effort to make tools from it; also butchery knife has looting III modifier. This however requires twilight and a little bit botania gameplay to actually get manasteel) - this is literally mvp of all materials (in manufacturing difficulty and useful properties comparison for a long period)
 
=== LV (post-EBF) ===
Line 157 ⟶ 166:
* Ardite
* Damascus Steel (higher durability than Ardite; also has Sharpness V)
* Vanadiumsteel (highest durability you can get at this tier, not counting nether star and manasteel)
* Sterling Silver (poor durability but has Disjunction IV, if you want to do enderman hunting)
 
=== MV ===
 
* Not really any good choices here; stick with Vanadiumsteel or Manasteel for the durability
 
=== HV ===
Line 168 ⟶ 177:
* Manyullyn (slightly higher durability than Vanadiumsteel, and you weren't doing anything with all that ardite anyway, were you)
* Galgadorian (more than double the durability of Vanadiumsteel but requires ender eyes and diamonds; probably not worth it)
* Ademic SteelManasteel (requiresstill implosiongood compressor and vacuum freezeroption, but insanelyalmost highthe durabilitybest forin this tier)
* Ademic Steel (has more durability than manasteel but requires implosion compressor and vacuum freezer)
 
* Shadow (even higher durability than Ademic Steel but requires Thaumcraft and a decent amount of warp; super fast mining speed)
Line 186 ⟶ 196:
** A Trinium wrench will more or less break anything instantly, but has the side effect of breaking multiple blocks at once if you're not careful. Be careful with one.
* Tritanium has the second most durability of any material (after Infinity), but at this point, your tools aren't really being used for anything except crafting.
