A '''sulfur cube''' is a [[Minecraft:bucket of mob|bucketable]] jumping passive mob found in sulfur caves. It can absorb a full-sized [[Minecraft:block]] into itself, which immobilizes it and makes it receive higher knockback from most attacks instead of damage. The block type a sulfur cube absorbs affects its physical properties, and some blocks cannot be absorbed. Blocks can be extracted using [[Minecraft:shears]], or by killing the sulfur cube.

If a sulfur cube pathfinds into a block which can be climbed, such as [[Minecraft:ladder]]s or [[Minecraft:vines]], the sulfur cube will climb the block. Sulfur cubes with absorbed blocks which are launched are also capable of climbing.{{Only|java}}

=== Splitting ===
=== Splitting ===
Sulfur cubes come in two sizes: small and large. When a large sulfur cube dies, it splits into two small cubes. If a small sulfur cube dies, it does not split and drops nothing. When a named large sulfur cube is killed and splits, both small cubes retain the name.

Small sulfur cubes grow into large ones after 20 minutes, similarly to baby mobs. [[Minecraft:Slimeball]]s can be used to tempt and feed small sulfur cubes, which will decrease their remaining growth time. They can also be fed a golden dandelion to prevent them from growing.

=== Absorbing blocks ===
=== Absorbing blocks ===
Large sulfur cubes have the ability to absorb some [[Minecraft:block]]s, mostly full-sized ones. It can absorb a block [[Minecraft:Item (entity)|dropped]] on the ground, and also can be fed a block by {{MC/Control|interacting}} with it. Sulfur cubes move toward absorbable blocks dropped on the ground, and also follow players holding an applicable block in their hand. Small sulfur cubes cannot absorb blocks. A [[Minecraft:dispenser]] can also be used to make a sulfur cube absorb a block.

Any method of feeding a block to a sulfur cube can also be done on a sulfur cube that has already absorbed a block, which changes the block inside it and drops its previously-absorbed block as an item.

Sulfur cubes in [[Minecraft:boat]]s and [[Minecraft:minecart]]s can still absorb blocks dropped on the ground. Shears in a [[Minecraft:dispenser]] can be used to remove the block from the sulfur cube while it is still in the boat or minecart.

Absorbed blocks in sulfur cubes have the same visual properties as when placed down, including MERS textures with [[Minecraft:Vibrant Visuals]]. Froglights, for example, glow inside the sulfur cube, but they do not actually light the environment gameplay-wise. Throwing a splash potion of Invisibility on a sulfur cube will show only the absorbed block.

Some hostile mobs will attack the sulfur cube even while it has absorbed a block, such as zoglins, the [[Minecraft:wither]] and [[Minecraft:warden]]s. Although the sulfur cube is immune to the warden's melee damage, they can be killed by its sonic boom. Additionally, tamed wolves will attack a sulfur cube which their owner attacks.

=== Launching ===
=== Launching ===
When affected by knockback, the sulfur cube is launched and may bounce like a ball. The direction and trajectory in which a sulfur cube is launched are dependent on where on its body it is hit.{{MC/Needs testing|May not be implemented yet in Bedrock Edition.}}

The force at which a sulfur cube is launched is based on the amount of damage the attack does. For example, hitting it with a diamond sword ({{hp|7}} {{MC/In|Java}} or {{hp|8}} {{MC/In|Bedrock}}) launches it farther than punching it without an item ({{hp|1}}).

Revision as of 11:18, 10 April 2026

Template:In development Template:Infobox entity

A sulfur cube is a bucketable jumping Minecraft:passive mob that is only found in Minecraft:sulfur caves. It can absorb a full-sized Minecraft:block into itself, which immobilizes it and makes it receive higher knockback from most attacks instead of damage. The block type a sulfur cube absorbs affects its physical properties, and some blocks cannot be absorbed. Blocks can be extracted using Minecraft:shears, or by killing the sulfur cube.

Small sulfur cubes spawn in groups of two when a large sulfur cube dies. They grow up over time similarly to Minecraft:babies and cannot absorb blocks.

Spawning

Large sulfur cubes spawn naturally in Minecraft:sulfur caves at light level 0.

Two small sulfur cubes spawn when a large sulfur cube dies, which can then grow up into large sulfur cubes; see Template:Section link below.

Despite being passive mobs, sulfur cubes cannot spawn in Minecraft:Peaceful difficulty,Template:Only<ref>Template:Bug</ref> as they count as Minecraft:monsters.

Template:Mob spawn table

Drops

Upon death, large sulfur cubes drop the block they absorbed and 1-2 Minecraft:experience, while small cubes drop no experience.

Behavior

Sulfur cubes are passive mobs that, by default, jump around aimlessly. In this state, they are susceptible to all sources of damage.

If a sulfur cube Minecraft:pathfinds into a block which can be Minecraft:climbed, such as Minecraft:ladders or Minecraft:vines, the sulfur cube climbs the block. Sulfur cubes with absorbed blocks which are launched are also capable of climbing.Template:Only

Splitting

Sulfur cubes come in two sizes: small and large. When a large sulfur cube dies, it splits into two small cubes. If a small sulfur cube dies, it does not split and drops nothing. When a named large sulfur cube is killed and splits, both small cubes retain the name.

Small sulfur cubes grow into large ones after 20 minutes, similarly to Minecraft:baby mobs. Minecraft:Slimeballs can be used to tempt and feed small sulfur cubes, which decreases their remaining growth time. They can also be fed a Minecraft:golden dandelion to prevent them from growing.

Absorbing blocks

Large sulfur cubes have the ability to absorb some Minecraft:blocks, mostly full-sized ones. It can absorb a block dropped on the ground, and also can be fed a block by Template:Control with it. Sulfur cubes move toward absorbable blocks dropped on the ground, and also follow players holding an applicable block in their hand. Small sulfur cubes cannot absorb blocks. A Minecraft:dispenser can also be used to make a sulfur cube absorb a block.

Any method of feeding a block to a sulfur cube can also be done on a sulfur cube that has already absorbed a block, which changes the block inside it and drops its previously-absorbed block as an item.

When a sulfur cube has absorbed a block, it stops moving and its absorbed block is visible inside of it. The absorbed block can be removed from a sulfur cube by using Minecraft:shears on it, which drops the block as an item.

Sulfur cubes in Minecraft:boats and Minecraft:minecarts can still absorb blocks dropped on the ground. Shears in a Minecraft:dispenser can be used to remove the block from the sulfur cube while it is still in the boat or minecart.

Absorbed blocks in sulfur cubes have the same visual properties as when placed down, including MERS textures with Minecraft:Vibrant Visuals. Froglights, for example, glow inside the sulfur cube, but they do not actually light the environment gameplay-wise. Throwing a Minecraft:splash potion of Invisibility on a sulfur cube causes it to show only the absorbed block.

Sulfur cubes can absorb named blocks; the block remains named if removed, but the name of the block is not displayed above the sulfur cube.

Sulfur cubes can only absorb the specific blocks listed in the Template:Section link section.

Item interactions

A large sulfur cube can be picked up by using an empty Minecraft:bucket on it to create a Minecraft:bucket of sulfur cube. If a named sulfur cube is bucketed, the name of the item becomes "Bucket of <name>" (the sulfur cube's name)Template:Only or only the cube's nameTemplate:Only.

If the bucketed sulfur cube has an absorbed block, the bucket of sulfur cube item tooltip displays the name of the absorbed block, unless the sulfur cube is also named.

Damage resistance

A sulfur cube that has absorbed a block is resistant to the following forms of damage:

Other sources of damage, such as Minecraft:fire, Minecraft:suffocation, Minecraft:cramming or Minecraft:poison, can damage or kill the sulfur cube as normal.

Some hostile mobs attack the sulfur cube even while it has absorbed a block, such as Minecraft:zoglins, the Minecraft:wither and Minecraft:wardens. Although the sulfur cube is immune to the warden's melee damage, they can be killed by its Minecraft:sonic boom. Additionally, tamed Minecraft:wolves attack a sulfur cube which their owner attacks.

Launching

When affected by knockback, the sulfur cube is launched and may bounce like a ball. The direction and trajectory in which a sulfur cube is launched are dependent on where on its body it is hit.Template:Needs testing

The force at which a sulfur cube is launched is based on the amount of damage the attack does. For example, hitting it with a Minecraft:diamond sword (Template:Hp Template:In or Template:Hp Template:In) launches it farther than punching it without an item (Template:Hp).

Depending on the absorbed block, the sulfur cube exhibits different properties when hit.
