I didn't mean that all or even any of these items were meant to be used as greifing tools but that they are often USED for greifing. t=There are also other uses like you can quickly dig tunnels with the lens items and destruction catalysts you can build or quickly tear down with the mercurial eye. the nova explosives an be used for blast mining if people should feel that they want to but of course not everyone does. volcanic and evertide amulets as well as the philosopher's stone can each be used for crafting purposes the volcanite amulet can be used for making pools of lava for geothermal energy if needed evertide amulets can make a tank of water or an artificial lake or pond as well as a really tall fountain. The omni-tools are tools that act as a mix of other tools combining thier strengths covering weaknesses and also saving a few inventory slots as well. these tools can also be for terraforming, maybe you want a chasm to mine in or to build a house in and maybe you want a large pit dig out quickly.

They all can be used different ways by different people, and how people use them is up to the player.
