Silver and gold...

[D.T.]

I've noticed some tools in the game have both silver and gold versions...so far, the shovel and the ax.

What tools have silver and gold versions, and could someone explain the difference between the silver and the gold? Like I think the silver ax never breaks, and the gold ax never breaks AND swings faster.

gold axe doesnt break, silver is what it starts with isnt it?? anyway golden axe wont break golden shovel wont break either and its cool looking i donno what else it does also the golden net is easier to catch bugs and golden fishing rod i donno..

Silver? isnt that the normal version of all the tools..

There is a normal version of each tool, a silver version which is slightly better, and a gold version which is the best.

Have a look for the silver shovel thread, I posted what each tool does and how to get them in that thread.

I can't find that thread...could you link me to it or just copy and paste what you wrote?

Axe: 400 bells from Nook's shop
Silver Axe: Serena (after throwing an axe into the town fountain)
Golden Axe: Serena (after throwing an axe into the town fountain)
The difference: Silver axes will never break. Golden axes will also never break, and cut trees down much faster.

Net: 500 bells from Nook's shop
Silver Net: 500 bells from Nook's shop (after level 2 upgrade)
Golden Net: From Tortimer after catching every bug.
The difference: the Silver net is a bit bigger than the normal net, while the golden net makes catching bugs 'a breeze'

Shovel: 500 bells from Nook's shop
Silver Shovel: Resetti Surveillance Center
Golden Shovel: Bury a Shovel for four days.
The difference: a Silver shovel gives you a 10% chance for more bells when you're smacking rocks. The Golden Shovel allows you to plant Bell trees.

Fishing Rod: 500 bells from Nook's shop
Silver Rod: 500 bells from Nook's shop (after level 2 upgrade)
Golden Rod: From Tortimer after catching every fish.
The difference: Silver rods have better lures than normal rods, making fishing a bit easier. Golden Rods 'is a real fish magnet!'

Slingshot: 500 bells from Nook's Shop
Silver Slingshot: 500 bells from Nook's Shop (after level 2 upgrade)
Golden Slingshot: Balloon (after shooting at least eight balloons)
The difference: The silver slingshot fires two bullets instead of one, while the Golden slingshot fires three.

Watering Can: 500 bells from Nook's shop
Silver Watering Can: From Nook's Shop after buying 50 bags of seeds
Golden Watering Can: From Town Hall after maintaining a perfect town for 15 days straight.
The difference: The silver watering can has a wider radius for sprinkling water. The Golden can.. well it doesn't say the perks, but I'm pretty sure it severely helps the success rate of plants growing.

Town Fountain? I know there is a city fountain, do we have town fountains?

You have to donate a certain amount and then you get one.

Do you know how to choose between the gold and silver axe? in the old (korean?) fable, a man threw his axe into a river and a spirit pulled out a silver axe, asked him if it was his, he said no, then a gold one, and he said no, she rewarded his honesty with both axes. Then a dishonest man heard the tale and went to replicate the act, claiming the golden axe was his, he was of course rewarded with nothing.

thats how the story goes in a nutshell anyway, I wonder if it works like that within the game.


Edit: PS, dont just assume this is how it goes, I dont want to be responsible for anyone not getting their shiny tools =P

I believe you're right, although it's somewhat different, I think.

If you're honest you get a golden axe and if you're not honest you get a silver one.

Ah that works, you sure thats how it goes?

I dont want to mess up, though its kinda disappointing you cant get both, unless you can do it twice...?

Silver and gold decorations, on ev'ry Christmas tree...sorry, the title put it in my head. XD

Cool, I like old fables.

I miss Farley from the ACGCN well.

I'm pretty sure, you can get all the tools, so does that mean you can do the well stuff twice?

I'm not entirely sure that's how it works, you'll just have to try it out. I believe you can get both the silver and gold axes.

So once you throw the tools in the town fountain, what happens next? Do you wait and then get it back from serena? Who is Serena?

the golden shovel actually only takes one day
