Talk:Amethyst Shard

Block of Amethyst
The crafting table currently shows the Block of Amethyst recipe twice. I can't remove the duplicate myself. 02:58, 5 November 2020 (UTC)

Possibly not Java Esition exclusive
Why is this marked as JE exclusive when i think it will be added to Bedrock before the full release?--Soulkeeper (Talk | contribs) 17:16, 2 January 2021 (UTC)


 * That's typical. I think that the protocol is that we're not supposed to create a page for a feature until it appears in a development version, and it is supposed to say it is exclusive to one edition until it is added to the development versions of both.

Description
I have noticed that there is little description about amethyst shards being related to amethyst apart form a miniscule mention. I would like to see a mention of budding amethyst in the first paragraph please. 2.26.132.149 16:30, 2 May 2021 (UTC)
 * It definitely seems worth mentioning that they naturally generate on budding amethyst inside geodes. When I have time, I'll check a few other pages to find consistent wording. I'm a little curious about whether crops or spawners will be closer. PegasusDust (talk) 04:09, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

Renewability
Can someone explain amethyst shard/cluster renewability to me please? I feel like I'm missing something obvious here. Can they grow on other blocks? I want to learn, not troll. --80.189.149.84 13:03, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
 * It's because budding amethyst blocks have a chance to spawn a new amethyst bud, which eventually grows into a cluster that can be broken into shards. Amatulic (talk) 14:23, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
 * This is the bit that's confusing me. The renewability of buds and clusters depends on the availability of budding amethyst blocks. If one were to destroy all of these blocks (which admittedly would take an obscenely long time) the supply of shards will eventually run out, right? --80.189.149.84 18:20, 23 May 2022 (UTC)
