In Animal Crossing: New Horizons something that is essential is the fact that from time to time we will have to make or buy tools to carry out our tasks on the island. One of those cases is that of the shovel, with which we can dig up fossils, plant trees, hit rocks and other series of functions.
After a few uses it is likely to shatter you, so we have put together a guide to tell you how you can make its most resistant version, that is, the gold shovel.
How to get the gold shovel
For the manufacture of the gold shovel you will need to have the following materials:
Gold Nugget x1
Shovel x1
However, this tool is the one that will probably take the longest to obtain, not because of difficulty, but because of the amount of time it will take for you to get hold of the plans for its corresponding manufacture to buy Animal Crossing bells. More than anything because you will need Gulliver to visit your town.
As we already told you at the time, this seagull will sometimes appear on the beach of our town and will entrust us with the mission of recovering five pieces of its communicator that remain buried everywhere in the sand of our island. This is easy to do and it will only take you a few minutes to do it, which will allow you to get a succulent reward in the process.
The point is, to get the blueprints for the golden shovel you will need to help Gulliver a total of 30 times. Even if he came every week, it would take you about seven months to reach this amount. That is why you will need to be patient and in a few months you may be pleasantly surprised, unless you change the date of your console to speed up the process even more.
