Usage

Charging

A flux-infused excavator can hold up to 320,000 RF. It can be charged using an energetic infuser, a flux capacitor or similar. It can also be charged by touching a fluxed electrum block or flux crystal block while holding it. It can be charged at rates up to 4,000 RF/t.

An uncharged flux-infused excavator is still usable and will not break when used, but it is much less powerful.

Empowering

A charged flux-infused excavator can be empowered, increasing its power. This can be toggled by pressing “Cycle Item Mode” (V by default).

Mining

An uncharged flux-infused excavator has a very low digging speed (even slower than a wooden shovel) and can only break one block at a time. When charged, it has the same digging speed as a diamond excavator, breaks up to 9 blocks at a time in a 3x3 area, and consumes 200 RF per use. When empowered, it is 1.5 times as fast as a diamond excavator, breaks up to 25 blocks at a time in a 5x5 area, and consumes 1,600 RF per use.

When sneaking, a flux-infused excavator breaks only one block at a time.

Weapon

An uncharged flux-infused excavator has an attack speed of 1, and deals 2 damage. When charged, it deals 5 damage as well as 1 flux damage (a special type of damage that bypasses armor). When empowered, its attack speed is raised to 1.4 and its flux damage is raised to 4.

Enchantments

A flux-infused excavator has an enchantability of 25, which is slightly higher than that of a golden excavator. It can receive all the enchantments that other excavators can receive.

When enchanted with Unbreaking, a flux-infused excavator has a chance to not consume Redstone Flux when used.

A flux-infused excavator can also be enchanted with Holding to increase its energy capacity.
