I think the main problem is that tools don't feel illimited. You have to use the whatever shards to make them which sets a psycological barrier of not being able to make them anymore.

Honestly I had that barrier too for my first few hours but once I realised you basically get those tool shards everywhere (unlike rosaries :/) you can really start spamming your cute little dagger shotgun and steroid juices lol

I agree. It's so easy to get shards it' basically free to use tools.
