Pickaxes (2018)

This article is about the ThoH 2018 Event currency. For the Wild West 2016 Event currency, see Pickaxes.

Pickaxes were a limited-time currency that was released on October 3, 2018, for Treehouse of Horror XXIX Event. They were used to dig up sections at the Old Ruins.

How to Obtain[edit | edit source]

Pickaxes could have been obtained by the following ways:

Sending specific characters to perform Acquire Pickaxes jobs at the Holy Forge earns basically 2 Pickaxes per one finished job. New premium characters such as Nosferatu earn basically 3 Pickaxes per job.
Buying them with Donuts at the Old Ruins after all Pickaxes been spent.

Characters with Pickaxe jobs[edit | edit source]

The following table shows the characters with Pickaxes earning jobs. All jobs last for 4 hours. Already released premium characters and outfits earned at a higher rate compared to their freemium counterparts. Premium characters and outfits introduced with the event earned at even higher rates than all other characters (except for Witch, Frankenstein's Monster, Julienstein and Slick - they don't earn Pickaxes).
