Collect resources, build bases, find secrets, and defend yourself against the strange creatures and traps that inhabit these worlds. Tame these Shattered Wilds, and shape them to your whims.

Wow, amazing game. Finished classic mode - with TONS of deaths - now going for the ironman achievement on hard maps!
A few questions:
1. What the hell does the Mage Hand do, actually? I haven't tried anything with it outside of attempting to fail to trigger some of the late game workshops.
2. Can any paintings be found in any water source, or by the second boss? Or are certain paintings tied to specific levels, and to specific bosses? Trying to grind the 100% logbook achievement and it is... rough.
3. Any point to dusk blocks outside of aesthetics?
Thanks!
Glad to hear you're enjoying the game! Sorry I made some of those achievements quite brutal.
1.) Mage Hand lets you interact with blocks at a distance, and you set it up with runes to target a block the same way you would set up a teleporter. You can use it to interact with a chest at a distance, for example. I'm not sure it's that useful but I figured it might be used if someone got around to making a custom map, since it would let you hide exactly what the player is interacting with.
2.) Anything that drops a painting can drop any painting, they're not set to any specific map or boss. If you're going the fishing method I recommend getting an eyepatch from lava fishing first, otherwise just farm the boss that takes you the least amount of time to kill.
3.) Nope, just aesthetics! Tabi redid my art for bricks/obsidian bricks and while I liked it it felt more metallic than stone, so I added them as iron/dusk brick variants for decoration.
Are there any non-secret items that can't be duplicated if destroyed?
In the third world, at the front gate to a massive structure, I tried to collect a floating device when my inventory was already full, and unfortunately I destroyed it without harvesting it.
Am I softlocked out of collecting that item for my logbook, or can I build it later?
Trying to be vague on purpose to avoid spoilers. I know there is at least one other secret item in the game that needs high level gear to harvest, I worry that someone grabbing that rare, non-reproducible item could destroy it like I did with the floating thing. Haven't tested that, though.
If the item you're talking about is the one I'm thinking of, it should be craftable. Technically though, every item in the game is renewable in some way (at the very least with the use of an item you unlock in the final workbench, but usually there's another way as well). Even that other item you're thinking of re-spawns, although it takes a very long time to do so.
Also, even if you lose an item due to a full inventory it should count in the logbook.
Thank you!!! Good to know about the respawn solution, though that does call into question regal legitimacy xD
I didn't think to cross reference my logbook after harvesting the item, but I am 95% sure I figured out what it was. Granted, I haven't figured out what it DOES, but I am sure I will, with enough experimentation.
