Template:For Template:In development Template:Infobox block Sulfur spikes are Minecraft:blocks found in Minecraft:sulfur caves that form stalactites and stalagmites.

Stalactites (which point downward) grow over time when attached from underneath Minecraft:sulfur and can serve as falling projectiles, similar to dripstone.

Stalagmites (which point upward) do not deal extra fall damage, unlike Minecraft:pointed dripstone.

Obtaining

Breaking

Sulfur spikes drop when mined by any Minecraft:tool or hand, but Minecraft:pickaxes are the quickest. Sulfur spikes break instantly when hit by a thrown Minecraft:trident. However, it cannot be broken with any other Minecraft:projectile.

Template:Breaking row

Natural generation

Sulfur spikes generate in Minecraft:sulfur caves in cluster formations.

Trading

Minecraft:Wandering traders may sell 2 sulfur spikes for 1 Minecraft:emerald.

Post-generation

Sulfur spikes slowly grow when placed on the underside of Minecraft:sulfur.Template:More info

Usage

Sulfur spikes can be found in two different forms, stalactites and stalagmites. Placing a sulfur spike between a stalagmite and stalactite without sneaking connects them. Sulfur spikes can also be Minecraft:waterlogged. They behave similarly to Minecraft:pointed dripstone.

Stalactites

File:Sulfur Spike Stalactite JE1.png
A stalactite

Stalactites are created when sulfur spikes are placed on the bottom of a block.

If the block supporting a stalactite or any block of the stalactite is broken, all of the unsupported sulfur spike below the broken block drops, causing damage to any player and mobs standing beneath it, similar to a falling Minecraft:anvil. When a player dies by a stalactite falling on them, the Minecraft:death message "<player> was skewered by a falling stalactite" appears.

Stalagmites

File:Sulfur Spike Stalagmite JE1.png
A stalagmite

Stalagmites are created when sulfur spikes are placed on the ground.

Unlike pointed dripstone, falling on a sulfur stalagmite does not affect the amount of fall damage taken.<ref>Template:Bug</ref> Dying by falling onto a sulfur spike stalagmite treats the death as standard fall damage, meaning the death message "<player> was impaled on a stalagmite" is not displayed.

It is possible to climb up portions of stalagmites entirely composed of differently sized parts because of the different collision box sizes of the sulfur spikes that it composes of.

Columns

File:Sulfur Spike Column.png
A naturally generated sulfur spike column

Sulfur spike columns can be found naturally in sulfur caves, and are formed when stalactites and stalagmites join together in mid-air. When grown, they stop where they join (unlike in real life).

Columns can be created manually by stacking sulfur spikes on either the stalactite or the stalagmite or both until they join together, the last sulfur spikes placed being the most slender part of the whole column. Based on the direction of the last block placed, the shape of the column's slender part can vary.
