'''Echo gathering tools''' are three forms of one transforming tool: '''Echo pickaxe''', '''Echo axe''' and '''Echo harpoon'''. If you own one, carry the matching form in your inventory or weapon slot for its gathering benefits.

== Changing form ==
Use '''Toggle''' while the tool is in your inventory. The cycle is '''pickaxe → axe → harpoon → pickaxe'''. Toggling stops your current action and keeps the item's attached attributes.

You can gather with the tool in your inventory. Wielding it uses the corresponding dragon tool's equipment requirements. You still need the level for the rock, tree, fish or activity you choose.

== Gathering ==
Echo forms allow up to '''one gathering attempt per tick''' in their supported actions. The timer is shared across forms, so switching forms does not grant extra attempts. Success checks, inventory space, resource depletion and activity requirements still matter; an attempt does not guarantee a resource.

{| class="wikitable"
! Form !! Uses
|-
| Echo pickaxe || Ordinary mining with improved success, rune/pure essence, dark essence, Motherlode Mine pay-dirt and [[Shooting Stars]]. Motherlode veins still require 30 Mining.
|-
| Echo axe || Ordinary Woodcutting with improved success, chopping planted fruit trees, [[Wintertodt]] bruma roots and the Challenge Mode Muttadile meat tree in [[Chambers of Xeric]].
|-
| Echo harpoon || Ordinary fishing with improved success. It replaces the spot's normal tool and bait; the spot option and fish levels still determine catches. It also supports raid supply fishing and Lake Molch aerial fishing.
|}

== Other fishing uses ==
In '''Chambers of Xeric supply rooms''', the Echo harpoon replaces the rod and cave worms. Your Fishing level still determines the available raid fish, and catches still use a success check.

At '''Lake Molch''', aerial fishing still requires '''43 Fishing and 35 Hunter'''. With the Echo harpoon, you do not need the cormorant's glove or bait. Click a spot and remain still to repeat catches while the spot and inventory space remain available. Each catch grants Fishing and Hunter XP and has an additional Molch pearl roll.

== Obtaining ==
Acquisition source: '''Unknown'''.
