A heavy core is a rare block that can only be obtained from ominous vaults found in trial chambers. It can be combined with a breeze rod to craft a mace.

Breaking

[edit | edit source]

A heavy core can be mined with any tool or by hand, but a pickaxe is the most effective. It always drops itself when mined.

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

Piston interactivity

[edit | edit source]

In Bedrock Edition, just like glazed terracotta, heavy cores can be pushed by pistons but can't be pulled by sticky pistons. They also don't stick to slime blocks and honey blocks. In Java Edition, they can be both pushed and pulled by pistons. They also stick to slime blocks and honey blocks.
