Overview
The 7 Days To Die Auger is one of the best tools to use if you’re going to be doing mining but it can also be used to destroy things much faster with the exception of wooden items. It can be used also as a melee weapon but it deals very little damage.
The auger can be both looted and crafted. You can usually find augers inside of working stiff crates or garage storage crates if you’re lucky. In order to use an auger, you will need to fuel it with gas. There are also an assortment of mods that can be attached to improve performace and increase resources yields which you can find below.

Heat Map
Using an auger will generate heat on the Heat Map, meaning you will attract screamers which will in turn bring more zombies to your location if the heat map gets hot enough.
