This equipment is given to you at the start of the game for free by each of the corresponding NPCs (also known as Friendly Faces) in a tutorial format. The tier of Tool you start with is a Makeshift Tool. Progressing through each Skill, using the Tools needed to get the job done, you can unlock higher tier Tools. These higher tier Tools in Palia require maintenance to ensure they do not break, but allow you to harvest higher quality resources. If your Tool breaks, it reverts to the Tier below the current Tier of the Tool. Below we’ll explain all the Tools available and how to use them.
