|}Modifiers are special abilities independent of material traits. They require Modifier Slots to be applied to tools, which are acquired either by sacrificing valuable materials for a once-per-tool extra slot, or by levelling up. All tools start with zero modifiers unless one of their materials gives modifier slots as its bonus. Up to three modifier slots can be added to any tool using the items below, by combining them with a tool in a Tool Station or Tool Forge. Some [[Enhanced Lootbags]] have a chance to drop a Creative Tool Modifier for an additional slot. Creative modifiers are unlimited in uses-per-tool but a non-renewable and chance based acquisition.

Once-per-tool Add Modifier Combos

There are only a few modifiers using early game - Redstone for faster mining, and optionally Diamond for upgrading a pick's mining level to mine Obsidian if the resources to upgrade to Steel or Alumite are elusive. Reinforced or Moss modifiers are generally not worth putting on basic tools, as they're easy to repair (typically 1-3 ingots to full durability). Save Ball of Moss for crossbow bolts and Reinforced for making unbreakable tools for [[Automated Farming]] later. Fortune can be considered for a pickaxe as it grants bonus drops for [[Ore Generation#Small Ores|small ores]]/vanilla ores only - nice for rare Nether smalls or Silver pre-Twilight Forest, but can clog up the inventory faster.
