will that work

please say yes because I murdered my hand with a hammer and cold
chisel last time lol.

SDS drill and chisel bit

On plasterboard, a 4" scraper and a claw hammer.

used how?

Bolsters and chisels
are too thick to get behind tiles cleanly

Pretty obvious that a thinner blade is going to get behind the tile
easier than a big fat one. Only problem is the flexibility of the
scraper, but a sharp tap at the right angle usually does it for me. A
different approach required on solid walls of course.
