Well now that there's mining in the game I'm assuming one would have to equip the pickaxe to get ore, so that poses the question, can these equippable non weapon items be uses as weapons. There's a preview out there somewhere saying a farmer attacked the player with a pitchfork, if this is possible o.think it would greatly increase immersion being able to be a char that only uses picks or shovels etc. What do you guys think?

I hope I can beat up a stone atronach with 500% effective pickaxe dmg taken

I'd imagine a pick would be better against an ice atronach

would be kind of cool i guess.

im thinking because there is a "wood cutters axe" compared to a normal axe that items like that that are needed to do woodcutting mining farming etc are activity only items? idk <_<

Couldn't we use shovels in oblivion DLC,think it was mehrunes razor.?

I hope we can use that hook thing as a weapon; that tool we saw the guy moving logs with.
