That’s the problem
After Chapter 2 release star metal can only be mined by a pick that’s at least tier 4 or higher.
Here are the current tiers:

Welcome to the Forum. @Xevyr is right it started a couple updates ago.

Could you link the source for that information? Tried Google and the list I’m seeing is obviously out of date. TIA.

The source of that information… is me… :joy:
That is from the current version of the game’s internal data.

However the change itself was in the Chapter 2 patch notes

  • Star Metal meteors are now again only harvestable by a tier 4 or higher pick, pick-axe or sorcery cull spell.

I saw that but all searches just turn up that the Acheronian pick is a higher tier than the Hardened Steel pick there is no mention of tools moving up and down tiers, I cleared my attributes, put my woolies on, harvested Obsidian with both and the Acheronian still gets more resources, as i am currently working towards Starmetal I will have to take both i suppose.

Yes, the harvest amount was not changed, only the internal item tier lowered by one secretly, previously it was also Tier 4, now it’s 3

Mass gather only gives you a fraction of what you’d get with a hardened steel pick.

How can they change something that is integral to a buggy, time consuming task without notifying the player base?

Nope, not even FUncom would be that stupid.
