The Tannerkivi (listen 
) (previously known as Earth Stone) is a rare inventory item.
The only way to obtain it is by sacrificing an Essence of Earth through an Essence Eater.
Usage
When the Tannerkivi is held in hand, any materials tagged with [earth] will transform into Soil in a ring around you.
Additionally, when carried at all, performing a kick will cause a small Earthquake earthquake around you. This effect is indicated by a cloud of red sparkles around the carrier. Kicking the Tannerkivi itself will also cause the same result.
Tips
- This item can be extremely helpful for digging, as it can turn most solid materials into soil; a soft material. Personal Plasma Beam, a Paha Silmä or the Dissolve Powders perk are all efficient early methods.
- Explosive props will explode when turned into soil.
- Turning a Holy Mountain's Brickwork into Soil will anger the Gods.
- Kicking becomes exceedingly dangerous, as the earthquake happens even if it's not being held.
- This can be advantageously used in areas with large groups of enemies or enemies with higher health, though still ill-advised due to the mass of what is loosened being entirely random, and may result in your death if the mass is shaped and/or positioned incorrectly.
- The falling rigid body debris from any caused earthquake can be safely converted into loose soil if the item is held and the debris contacts the conversion ring, making kicks relatively safe for you, though debris within the ring will not be converted. This can speed up digging efforts and reduce the danger from debris. You can however inadvertently bury yourself in the falling soil.
Trivia
- The symbol carved in the Tannerkivi is an alchemical rune for earth.
- The name comes from the words tanner, meaning earth or field, and kivi meaning stone. "Tanner tömisee" is a somewhat common saying for "earth shakes" which might be the inspiration for the name of the item, seeing how it can cause small earthquakes when kicking. "Taistelutanner" or battlefield is another common word where tanner is used.
- In Noita's files, the item is referred to as a "stone stone".
- In earlier versions of Noita, it was occasionally possible to find a Tannerkivi on item pedestals.
