Drillshafts are a type of Spear crafted by Goron artisans from recycled metal and a tip made from an old excavation bore.[1] They belong to the Goron Gear equipment archetype, which is a series of Weapons created by the Gorons.[3] They can break Ore Deposits with a single strike or destroy bombable rock piles without using explosives just like an Hammer, Cobble Crusher, Stone Smasher, and Boulder Breaker. However, unlike these Weapons, the Drillshaft does not receive boosted damage when used against a Stone Talus, but like them does have the ability to immediately destroy a Stone Pebblit. Additionally, the Drillshaft is the only Spear-type Weapon capable of destroying metal boxes, which are exempt from damage dealt by all other Spears and single-handed Weapons.

Drillshafts are commonly found in the Hebra Mountains and Eldin Canyon. They can be found in Treasure Chests or being wielded by Enemies, such as Lizalfos.

During the "Death Mountain's Secret" Side Quest, Dugby will challenge Link to find a treasure he hid near the Bridge of Eldin, but since he is speaking underwater, it is difficult to understand him.[4] However, if Link speaks to him at night, he will murmur in his sleep that he hid it over a Lava fall, which is east of the Goron Hot Springs.[5] This treasure is a Drillshaft, but Link must destroy a pile of rubble in order to obtain it. If he brings the Drillshaft back to Dugby, he will ask to see it to make sure it is the same one he hid.[6] Once he confirms this, he will allow Link to keep it, completing the Side Quest.[7][8]

Drillshafts are made of metal, so they are unable to burn when exposed to Fire or a Scorching Climate. They will also attract Lightning if they are equipped during a Thunderstorm and conduct Electricity. They sink if they are dropped in Water, but they can be picked up using the Magnesis Rune.
