While having it equipped in the chest slot, it allows the player to automatically pick up inventory items that lie on the ground, without having to interact with them. The items will disappear from the ground with a puff of smoke and then appear in the inventory. The Lazy Forager has a limited amount of uses and after it has collected 225 items it will break. It will also provide the player with a passive +2 per minute. The Lazy Forager can be refueled with Nightmare Fuel, restoring 22% Durability.
Orange Gems are renewable by killing the Ancient Fuelweaver to reset the Ruins and are dropped by Dragonfly. Thus, the Lazy Forager is reliably renewable.
Tips
The Lazy Forager can be used to pick up the rare items from Cave Holes. New treasures spawn in the Cave Holes every time the Ruins are reset.
The Lazy Forager can be used to collect Salt Crystals that drop out of pickup range near mined Salt Formations. This can make it less tedious to manoeuver around the mined Salt Formations each time the player wants to collect the Salt Crystals.
Similarly, any items floating in the ocean out of the players reach can be retrieved with The Lazy Forager.
Despite being refuellable, The Lazy Forager will still break at 0%, so care must be taken.
The Lazy Forager will not count full stacks as one item when reducing durability - instead, it will pull one piece out of the stack at a time. It will also pick up any Traps, Tooth Traps, or Bee Mines nearby (except Bramble Trap).
The Lazy Forager can be used to aid in clearing out landspace to expand the player's base. It will automatically pick up any Turfs, Logs, Saplings, Rocks and other resources that are dropped when clearing out various naturally spawned obstacles.
