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

Template:Hatnote Template:Infobox item A diamond sword is a variant of Minecraft:sword that is crafted from Minecraft:diamonds. It is the second-highest tier of sword, dealing more damage than an iron sword and having higher durability. It can be upgraded into a netherite sword using a netherite ingot and netherite upgrade at a smithing table.

Usage

Breaking

{{#vardefine:params|0 }}Template:Hatnote 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 the sword destroys drop the cobwebs themselves instead of the usual string. This is due to the sword being 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 diamond sword is used to deal damage to mobs and entities by {{#vardefine: control | left click on mouse or right trigger on gamepad }}attacking them. The diamond sword has Template:Hp base damage in Template:Editions and Template:Hp base damage in Template:Editions, and can be enchanted to deal more damage.

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

Trivia

  • The diamond sword's original texture is a blue version of the sword from Notch's abandoned RPG, Legend of the Chambered, in which the sword looks like the old iron sword texture.

However, they can no longer be purchased.<ref>https://shop.minecraft.net/products/minecraft-sword?_pos=1&_psq=sword&_ss=e&_v=1.0</ref><ref>https://shop.minecraft.net/products/minecraft-enchanted-purple-sword?_pos=4&_psq=sword&_ss=e&_v=1.0</ref>
