My idea was a digging claw, but this could work too. Any chance we could reference a tool that actually exists? Like scythe and sledgehammer for botany and miner.

Edit: hmmm, a sifting spade, lol.

Not sure if that fits the mood for the job, but would appreciate feedback.

Some other ideas that could be "dated" to be appropriate for the steampunk-ness of FFXIV:

Yeah I was thinking of almost that sifting spade exactly. Animal feeding grounds are really, *really* nasty and I know I wouldn't want to kneel down in that gunk and try to hack away at the dirt and rotting muscles to get something out of there.

But if we're thinking like, long-dead animals where it's nothing but bones then yeah the little hammers would work better.

well its more of a shovel turned sideways , but yeah.

I am all for it under one condition...

Do we get a cattle dog pet?

The question would be what kind of nodes would you find out in the world?

Flocks of animals (not normal monsters).

For offhand? don't we want offhand to be more static and somewhat differing mainhand gathering?

Thats where I thought the scavenging of an old pile of bones could fit the bill.

Cattle Dog

I think you are considering it for the more traditional term of Shepherd, lol.

And man, those puppies ARE cute.
