The Orichalcum Drill is a Hardmode drill. It is the alternative to the Orichalcum Pickaxe, having a faster mining speed but shorter range and lacking the ability to benefit from mining speed bonuses. It can mine blocks up to Adamantite and Titanium Ore.

Its alternate ore counterpart is the Mythril Drill. The Orichalcum Drill has slightly more pickaxe power, damage, and mining speed.

Its best modifier is Godly or Demonic. Both modifiers increase the average damage output by the same amount. However, Ruthless might be preferred if the player already has very high critical strike chance.
