Thread: Shellfish tool destroys!!!
Ane,
It finds shellfish and harvests them. I've not heard of them breaking before, so I'm not sure if this is a problem or not. I didn't mess around with them on TC, since this really wasn't a Scout thing, more of a Chef/BE thing.

it is probably related to the Tool's rating. Experimentation will decrease the chances of it breaking...or it could just be a bug.
Which is what is so darn frustrating about so much of this game. Things just break, and the devs dismiss questions with "working as intended."
Then three weeks later, it turns out that a hotfix changes the previous behavior that was dismissed as "working as intended."
I think I've figured out at least one reason these things get destroyed. (If the original poster means some kind of breakage that doesn't delete the item, then this is a different issue to look out for.)
I have a macro I use to run this tool while I fish. I've found that if you open the radial menu of an item, THEN your macro activates the tool, THEN you click delete, the tool will be deleted instead of the item. I lost a tool or two this way.
Hope this helps, or at least reminds you to make sure your tool isn't going to activate before trying to delete an empty fish.
