Stone is a tier of tool in Survival 303.

Overview
Stone tools are the entryway into the stone age and the beginning of the long road ahead. They can be easily crafted and are just as disposable since it is likely players will have mined iron in just a short time making their tools terribly obsolete. It is usually best to only craft a stone pickaxe, and only stone weaponry should the need arise to hunt or defend from raiders since iron weaponry is vastly superior and just over the horizon. It is however, a good investment to craft a stone knife since there is no difference between the various knifes except for the damage they deal and thus does not improve the quality of cutting welds into wood.

Damage
Tools and weapons serve to deter foreign raids and crime. Some tools are better than others at dealing damage, particularly weapons, as gathering tools are meant to harvest resources and it is strictly the nature of a weapon to serve a militaristic role.

Ability & Efficiency
A gathering tool is defined by its efficiency or chance to successfully harvest a given material and what materials it can harvest.
