It is the seventh-highest tier of pickaxe, having the lowest mining efficiency, and having the lowest attack damage alongside golden pickaxes. It has a mining level of 0, allowing it to mine stone and coal ore. It can be used as fuel in a furnace, smoker, or blast furnace.

Usage

[edit | edit source]
Main article: Pickaxe § Usage

Mining

[edit | edit source]

A wooden pickaxe is used to break stone-based and metal-based materials faster. Breaking a block with a wooden pickaxe consumes one use (one durability point). No durability is consumed for blocks that have a hardness value of 0, such as torches and flowers.

Weapon

[edit | edit source]

All pickaxes have an attack speed modifier of -2.8, meaning they take about 0.85 seconds to recover. Wooden pickaxes do 2HP👁 ❤️
 damage per attack, or 2.4 damage per second.

All pickaxes attack instantly, with wooden pickaxes doing 3HP👁 ❤️

A wooden pickaxe can be repaired in an anvil by adding wooden planks, with each plank restoring 25% of the pickaxe's maximum durability, rounded down. Two wooden pickaxes can also be combined in an anvil. Both methods preserve the pickaxe's enchantments.
