Minecraft:Terracotta

Template:Infobox block Terracotta is a Minecraft:block that is found abundantly in Minecraft:badlands biomes, or can be obtained by smelting Minecraft:clay. It can be dyed to create Minecraft:stained terracotta.

Obtaining

Breaking

Terracotta can be mined using any Minecraft:pickaxe. If mined without a pickaxe, it drops nothing. Template:Breaking row

Natural generation

Badlands

Terracotta can be found naturally and abundantly in Minecraft:badlands biomes.

Villages

Terracotta can be found in Minecraft:desert villages, as a part of houses, lamps and meeting points.

Usage

Building

Terracotta has the same blast resistance as most other stone blocks, which is significantly higher than the block of clay before being smelted. A block of terracotta when one block away from a creeper or TNT Minecraft:explosion protects any blocks behind it, although the terracotta itself is destroyed.

Note blocks

Uncolored terracotta can be placed under Minecraft:note blocks to produce a "bass drum" sound.

Sulfur cube

Template:In development Minecraft:Sulfur cubes have the ability to absorb terracotta, either through picking it up or being interacted with it. This provides the regular/football effect to the mob when hitting it.
