Crying Obsidian

Crying obsidian is a variant of obsidian, currently obtained only via bartering.

From block loot
Crying obsidian can be harvested with any pickaxe at or above diamond tier.

From bartering
Piglins may barter 1–3 crying obsidian when given a gold ingot.

Info
Similarly to obsidian, crying obsidian is a very resilient building block. It has a blast resistance of 1,200. In addition, it cannot be pushed by pistons or destroyed by the ender dragon. It is used to make a Respawn anchor, which currently does not have any uses

When placed, crying obsidian occasionally produces purple dripping particles. These droplets are purely aesthetic.

Unlike obsidian, crying obsidian cannot be used as a portal frame.

Breaking
Crying obsidian can be harvested with any pickaxe at or above diamond tier.
