Dripstone block is a rock block that allows pointed dripstone to grow beneath it if there is water on top of it.
A dripstone block requires a pickaxe to be mined, in which case it drops itself. When mined without a pickaxe, it drops nothing.
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.

Dripstone blocks are used primarily for decoration.
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.
