Great pick

From Dwarf Fortress Wiki

This article is about the current version of DF.
Note that some content may still need to be updated.

A great pick is an alternative to picks sized for large creatures. Troll, ogre, and blind cave ogre miners from dark goblin pits can arrive in sieges wielding this weapon.

A great pick is eight times the size of a standard pick. It has the same internal attack properties, but hits with more force due to its size. A creature must be at least 225,000 cm³ to wield it, with some large species of animal people being the smallest creatures that can equip it in fortress mode.

When melted down, great picks produce roughly four bars of metal.
