Field guide

Item details

How to obtain

Found submerged in rivers, swamps, shallow oceans, and abundantly inside lush cave pools. Source
Can be manufactured renewable by placing mud on top of a dripstone block with pointed dripstone dripping beneath it. Source

Practical uses

Smelted directly in a furnace to produce unglazed terracotta blocks. Source
Breaking clay without Silk Touch yields four clay balls, which can be smelted into bricks for masonry. Source

Mechanics

Mines fastest with a shovel; Silk Touch is required to collect the clay block itself rather than four clay balls. Source
