Minecraft:Golden Sword

From SAS Gaming Wiki
Revision as of 20:26, 9 April 2026 by SyncBot (talk | contribs) (Fix template calls: add MC/ prefix)

Template:Hatnote Template:Infobox item A golden sword is a variant of Minecraft:sword crafted from gold ingots. It is the seventh-highest tier of sword, dealing the same damage as a wooden sword but having less durability. It can be admired by piglins, and has the highest enchantability.

Obtaining

Mob loot

Minecraft:Piglins and zombified piglins have an 8.5% chance of dropping it when naturally held. The dropped sword has a random durability. Each level of Looting used to kill the piglin increases the drop chance by 1%.

Generated loot

Script error: No such module "lootChest".

Crafting

Template:Crafting

Usage

Breaking

A sword can also be used to destroy certain blocks 50% quicker, sometimes much quicker than with fists. Using a sword to destroy any block that doesn't break instantly by hand decreases its durability by 2; this includes bamboo, despite that the sword is the fastest tool for breaking it.<ref>Template:Bug</ref>

If a sword is enchanted with Minecraft:Silk Touch, either using Creative or Minecraft:commands, cobwebs hit by the sword drop the cobwebs themselves instead of the usual string, because a sword is classified as the proper tool for cobwebs.

Creative mode

In Creative mode, swords are unable to break blocks. However, they can still break placed entities such as Minecraft:minecarts, Minecraft:paintings, item frames,Template:Only and armor stands.<ref>Template:Bug</ref><ref>Template:Bug</ref>

Attacking

{{#vardefine:params|0 }}Template:Hatnote

A golden sword is used to deal damage to mobs and entities by {{#vardefine: control | left click on mouse or right trigger on gamepad }}attacking them. Golden swords have Template:Hp base damage in Template:Editions and Template:Hp base damage in Template:Editions, and can be enchanted to deal more damage.

Repairing

Combining

Template:Crafting Template:Grinding Two golden swords can be combined in an anvil. This preserves all enchantments on the sword, unlike using a crafting table or grindstone.

Anvil repair

{{#vardefine:params|0 }}Template:Hatnote Template:Repairing

A golden sword can be repaired in an Minecraft:anvil by adding gold ingots, with each repair material restoring 25% the sword's maximum durability, rounded down. Two golden swords can also be combined in an anvil. Both methods preserve the sword's enchantments.

Enchantments

A golden sword can receive the following enchantments:

Distracting piglins

Minecraft:Piglins are attracted to golden swords, run toward any golden swords on the ground, and inspect them for 6 to 8 seconds before putting them in their Minecraft:inventory slot. During this time, the piglin does not attack nearby players, even if they are not wearing gold armor.
