Minecraft:Golden Pickaxe

A golden pickaxe is a variant of Minecraft:pickaxe that is crafted from Minecraft:gold ingots. It is the sixth-highest Minecraft:tier of pickaxe, having the lowest durability, and having the lowest attack damage alongside Minecraft:wooden pickaxes, despite having the highest Minecraft:mining efficiency. It has a Minecraft:mining level of 0, the same as a wooden pickaxe, allowing it to mine Minecraft:stone and Minecraft:coal ore. It can be admired by piglins, and has the highest Minecraft:enchantability.

Obtaining

Usage

Mining

A golden pickaxe is used to break stone and metal-based materials faster. Breaking a block with a golden pickaxe consumes one use (one durability point). No durability is consumed for blocks that have a hardness value of 0, such as Minecraft:torches and Minecraft:flowers.

Weapon

Template:JE

All pickaxes have an attack speed modifier of -2.8, meaning they take about 0.85 seconds to Minecraft:recover. Golden pickaxes do Template:Hp damage per attack, or 2.4 damage per second, the same as a Minecraft:wooden pickaxe.

Template:BE

All pickaxes attack instantly, with golden pickaxes doing Template:Hp damage per attack, the same as a wooden pickaxe.

Repairing

Anvil repair

Template:Main Template:Repairing A golden pickaxe can be repaired in an Minecraft:anvil by adding Minecraft:gold ingots, with each ingot restoring 25% of the pickaxe's maximum durability, rounded down. Two golden pickaxes can also be combined in an anvil. Both methods preserve the pickaxe's Minecraft:enchantments.
