Dripstone block is a rock block that allows pointed dripstone to grow beneath it if there is water on top of it.

Obtaining

[edit | edit source]

Breaking

[edit | edit source]

A dripstone block requires a pickaxe to be mined, in which case it drops itself. When mined without a pickaxe, it drops nothing.

  1. ↑ These durations ignore any other influential factors (e.g., Mining Fatigue) and are measured in seconds. For more information, see Breaking Β§ Speed.

Natural generation

[edit | edit source]
Main article: Dripstone (feature)

Dripstone blocks can be found in dripstone caves. They can generate on the floor, the ceiling, as stalactites, stalagmites, or stalagnates (joined stalactite and stalagmite). They can generate underwater.

Usage

[edit | edit source]

Dripstone blocks are used primarily for decoration.

Natural growth

[edit | edit source]

If a stalactite is hanging from a dripstone block with a water source above, it slowly grows both the stalactite from above and a stalagmite from below.
