I think it’d be a great addition to just have a little notification, whether in the chat box or on-screen somewhere, that lets us know that we are almost out of logging axes, sickles, or mining picks so that we can buy a new stack before getting caught out in the wilderness, in front of a rich ore vein, with no more picks.

Obviously this is just a very minor change and I’m not holding my breath on getting a response any time soon, but maybe just something to keep in mind down the road once things calm down a little bit?

Yeah. A warning at 10-15% remaining would be great.

Think stacking and skipping trash is cheap?

I think a better solution would be to allow us to carry more harvesting tools at once. Letting us equip up to two stacks of each tool would be useful. That way you could just “top them up” without wasting space in your inventory carrying around extra harvesting tools.

That’s an even better improvement, I think. Great suggestion!

That or just have 3 harvesting slots for whatever harvesting item you want to put in, so you could have 3x mining picks or whatever order you want

Yes, please. Let us “stack” up to 250 uses, maybe as a feature for L70 characters.

What if they made it so you could repair them. They could use the same indication that your armor is broke. Just don’t make them take damage on death.

Maybe put a signal down wear it notifies you about broken armour and downed status at the health. Just add a red crafting signal if you have 10 or fewer on one of your tools. Would love that!
