Emberforge Pickaxe

Quickstart

Craft the pickaxe at a crafting table using three iron ingots, one blaze powder, and one stick. Equip it, then mine ores as you normally would. Iron, copper, and gold ores drop ingots, while ancient debris drops netherite scrap. Pick up these items where the block was mined.

Overview

The Emberforge Pickaxe is a mining tool that breaks stone and ores quickly and produces smelted drops from select blocks. It requires no special activation: hold it and mine with your usual controls.

What It Adds

One pickaxe with a mining speed of 8 for listed stone blocks, ores, obsidian, and ancient debris. It has 1,561 durability and deals 5 attack damage.

How To Use

Mine a block with the pickaxe. For supported ores, a smelted item appears at the mined block; collect it by walking over it. Other blocks keep their usual drops.

Crafting And Obtaining

Craft the Emberforge Pickaxe at a crafting table with three iron ingots across the top row, blaze powder in the center, and a stick beneath it. The recipe is also shown above.

Abilities And Mechanics

The pickaxe produces one of the following extra drops when mining the listed blocks:

Other ores—including coal, redstone, lapis, diamond, emerald, and nether quartz ores—do not have a smelted drop from this pickaxe.

Progression And Strategy

Use it when you want ingots directly from iron, copper, and gold ore, or netherite scrap from ancient debris. Remember that it only smelts the blocks listed above; bring a furnace if you want to process other materials.
