So we currently have a Sword named "Sword of Souls" and this swords gives better chance at rarer loot drops when using it and yet nothing for Mining / Woodcutting / Farming.
In the same Ikit that gives this "Sword of Souls" gives an armour set to improve Slaying too; Fairy set gives chance at openables dropping.
Now this is not the worst thing except all the openables pretty much suck. Only good thing to get is Immortal Stones (Currently) and I'm not even sure if they drop them!

There are a few openables I think need a improvement. Bird Nests are pretty terrible when you compare them to Bird Houses.
In my opinion, A slight buff to the Nests is a good idea.

Mining openables are perfect in my opinion.

The tier 1 farming openables is awful, like really bad. Please buff those.
The tier 2 openable for farming are great. (I think it's called Ant Colony, they're red). No where close to as bad as tier 1's.

Now my idea here is.

#1 : Give slaying a openable drop. Slaying is pretty terrible and there isnt an enjoyable part of it (Who doesnt like opening rng loot table items!!)
Not to mention EVERYTHING has a openable drop. Farming, Mining and Woodcutting.

#2 : I like to idea of Ikits or just plain Kits that give sets for bonuses to Mining / Woodcutting / Farming, but at the same time it's hard to balance what set passives you give. If Fairy is the only thing behind a closed door that gives bonuses to grinding for stars then it should be better than the other ways.
In reality Fairy set sucks and it's behind a closed door!

#3 : It can easily be done to make "Sword of Souls" not the only one of it's kind! You can definitely make the same exact thing for Axes / Pickaxes (Farming is too strong unless you can think of another way of balancing it) Just FYI, I'm assuming this wording of "Better chance at Rare drops" just means the loot is rolled twice and the better outcome is chose.
Give the same bonus to a Pickaxe / Axe (Can be on new Ikits or Kits)

You cant make these Diamond though because then they'll be broken for insta-breaking ores or wood!
So Iron would be good? (Not sure if Eff 5 Haste 2-3 on Iron also is a insta-break on Skystone/Bookcases)

If you do this you'll also need to make sure these tools are different to the upgrading tools so maybe give them their own title (Miners pickaxe or Lumberjacks Axe type name) This would make them not be upgraded to higher too so that players would use them for insta-breaking.

This is also great for improving Warzone Crates. They are too rare in my opinion.
But you're thinking "Warzone Crates are strong why make them easier to get?"
You can easily balance them by adding more loot to their rng loot pool. This will lower the chance of good items dropping and probably make their good loot just as rare as it is currently.

For Woodcutting and Farming, I think they just need another openable to be honest.
Comparing them both having 2 openables to Mining having 4 is odd?
And yet slaying has 0 compared to that 4...

Now if another openable is too much then add 2 more for slaying so it's 2 / 2 / 2 / 4

Also for clarification, I've barely Fished so I have no take on that way of making currency.

#

If you cant think of openables then I can also think of little games that could be a good minigame for openables (I miss mystic timbers lol)

Plinko minigame, Gold-fish type of minigame (Flip 2 cards and hope they match) 6 cards total as in two 4's, two 8's and two Kings.
There are plenty of other small minigames that could be implemented into minecraft's blocky ways.

#

I'll also randomly throw this on here.

Schematic are terrible.
Please either A. Buff them and make them go into more recipes for money (More stars then what they are atm)
Or B. Dont make schematic extractors 250mil! This 150star oil or 30 star ice cream is not going to make me that money back!!
If my math is right then a Oil Schematic would take 13,888 hours to make me back that 250mil
