RP never goes up, but increasing the level of your tools reduces RP consumption. So too does increasing your level with that tool (i.e. keep using it, and it'll get better). Strength means nothing: all that matters is the SP level of your tool.

Argh! Okay, so upgrading my tools at the forge will increase their SP level, right? Is that referring to their level when they're forged (I only have one level 2 tool and that's my Tomahawk) or the required skill for making it?

I have a battle plan - it occurs to me that the most important resource in the game is still money. I'm going to use the shortcut system in the Green Ruins to keep five constant plots of the most valuable spring crops growing constantly (I don't know what these are, yet, but potatoes are nice). I'll use my farm mostly for growing fodder, and then use my monsters to help me clear the field over time.

Just need to figure out which ones are best for what.

Also I think I saw a cow in the Green Ruins, what the Hell!?

It refers to the type of tool. Axes give the clearest example: the Cheap Axe has an SP level of 0, and can't break stumps (or do special attacks). The iron axe has an SP level of 1, and by holding B you can do a special attack that destroys a stump in 6 hits. The silver axe has an SP level of 2, and can destory a stump in three hits, etc.

Basically, you need the next axe.

Turnips are actually your best bet, especially at this stage: 10 GP for a bag of seeds, 270 or so GP per turnip, only five days turnaround time.

And yes, Bessie is on the lowest level of the Green Ruins. Had you recruited one, it would have destroyed the Cockatrice for you...the first time.
