How to Upgrade Tools, Use Stamina Up, and Improve Daily Stamina

What Does Stamina Up Do in Fields of Mistria?

Using a Stamina Up fully restores your current stamina and permanently increases your maximum stamina by 20. If you want more stamina each day, do not leave this item sitting in storage.

Tip: Use Stamina Up after spending most of your current stamina. This lets you benefit from its full refill as well as the permanent increase.

You receive Stamina Up from selected Town Rank rewards earned through Renown. Claim these rewards from the Renown reward chest beside the Request Board, and check the chest whenever your Town Rank increases so valuable items do not go unclaimed.

How to Upgrade and Charge Tools

You can forge higher-tier tools at the anvil outside the Blacksmith once you have the required materials and Blacksmithing level. You can also purchase unlocked tools inside the shop with Tesserae.

To cover a larger area, equip an applicable hoe, watering can, axe, pickaxe, or shovel and hold the charged-tool control. Higher-tier versions of these tools have larger charged areas.

A practical early upgrade order is:

Watering Can
Pickaxe
Axe
Hoe or Shovel

The Fishing Rod and Bug Net are often lower priorities. Upgrade the Watering Can if crop care is taking too long, then improve the Pickaxe for mining and collecting ore. Move the Axe higher in the order if a lack of wood is delaying buildings or other projects.

You do not need to forge every copper tool right away. March's early heart quest can reward a Copper Hoe, so consider waiting for it if you plan to build his friendship. Your copper may have a greater early impact when spent on a Watering Can, Pickaxe, or Axe.

Beginner-Friendly Daily Stamina Plan

Complete essential farm chores first. Before mining, fishing, or gathering wood, collect the free daily soup from the cauldron at The Sleeping Dragon Inn. The soup initially restores 20 health and 20 stamina. After the inn is repaired, it restores 40 of each.

If you need a full recovery, visit the Bathhouse. It restores both health and stamina for a fee.

You can also use Rejuvenating Fountains on the Eastern Road and at the Beach. Each fountain can be used once per day and restores 20 health and 20 stamina. Reaching the Eastern Road fountain requires a Copper Pickaxe or better. The Beach fountain becomes accessible after you complete the Repair the Beach Bridge story quest.

Use the free soup and fountains whenever they fit your route. Save carried food for areas where returning to town would cost too much time.
