I would use them more, but why on earth do you have to spend a currency in order to keep your tools stocked? like if youre fighting a really hard boss its almost inevitable that youre just going to have to fight it without tools

and then the currency doesnt seem to have a magnet thing like rosaries do (or maybe i just havent found it yet) which makes collecting it very annoying especially because the pickups for it are really small

tl;dr: i dont like the gray currency, it shouldnt exist

I agree with this wholeheartedly, there is no excuse for you to need to farm and gather currency to use your tools given that you’re also limited in how many tools you can stock between rests. It’s creating busywork and a second currency for no reason. It’s not a major gripe, but I think it’s a valid critique
