Template:Infobox block Packed ice, also known as compressed ice in British English is a variant of Minecraft:ice that functions almost identically, but does not melt and is Minecraft:opaque instead of transparent. Like other types of ice, it can only be obtained using a Minecraft:Silk Touch tool. It can also be used to Minecraft:craft Minecraft:packed ice bricks.

Obtaining

Breaking

Packed ice can be obtained using any Minecraft:tool enchanted with Minecraft:Silk Touch, though a Minecraft:pickaxe is the fastest. Without Silk Touch, breaking it drops nothing. Unlike normal Minecraft:ice, packed ice never turns into Minecraft:water when broken.

Template:Breaking row

Natural generation

Packed ice is found in the rare Minecraft:ice spikes biome, as well as Minecraft:frozen peaks, and Minecraft:ice caves.Template:Upcoming It also forms Minecraft:icebergs found in Minecraft:frozen oceans.

Packed ice generates as windows in Minecraft:igloos.Template:Only

Packed ice generates as Minecraft:piles (and in some houses or meeting points) in Minecraft:villages in Minecraft:snowy plains biome.

Packed ice also generates in Minecraft:ancient cities and in Minecraft:trial chambers surrounding Minecraft:stray spawners.

Speed

Packed ice is slippery, causing most Minecraft:entities to slide, including Minecraft:items. This also allows for increased speed of items in water currents by placing the packed ice under the water current. Minecraft:Mobs do not travel faster in water currents on packed ice.

Template:IN, when a non-full block of half-block or less in height is placed on top of packed ice, the block inherits the same 'slipperiness' as the ice below it for most entities, not including Minecraft:boats due to a bug.<ref>Template:Bug</ref> Additionally, any non-full block inherits the 'slipperiness' for items.

Boats can travel on packed ice with a top speed of 40 m/s. Ice tracks built from Minecraft:blue ice, packed ice, or a combination are useful for long-range travel in all three dimensions. Boats travel on almost double speed on blue ice, compared to packed ice.

Mobs can spawn on packed ice. This can allow for compact mob farms that rely on the tendency of pushed mobs to slide off the ice in some way.

Packed ice is a completely solid block, and allows placement of any objects on top.

Unlike normal Minecraft:ice, packed ice does not melt if placed near light sources.

Packed ice is not a storage block, as it cannot be Minecraft:crafted back into Minecraft:ice.
