Bronze Shovel
The Bronze Shovel adds Farming mastery +2 while it is on your toolbar, one more than the Rusty Shovel. You forge it at the Wooden Anvil, with a Hardening Bucket built against it, from 2 Sticks, 2 Bronze Details and a Bronze Ingot. The recipe comes with Bronze Instruments (15 red, 5 green), together with the Bronze Hammer, and needs Smithing mastery 2.
Farming is the branch for garden beds, cooking and tree stumps, and early on it has no other source than your shovel. With the Bronze Shovel you can dig out ordinary stumps (Farming 2), knead Dough and bake Bread.

Notes
- It replaces the Rusty Shovel on the toolbar, which holds one shovel at a time. With the Basic Rod beside it you have Farming 3; Berry Pie and the Vegetable salad need 4, one Farming node on the talent tree more.
- The town Vegetable Stand sells one at every tier. The Smithy only buys it.
