Usage
Lightning rods can be oriented in different directions. Lightning rods redirect lightning strikes within an area of 32×4×32 [Java Edition only] / 64×64×64 [Bedrock Edition only] blocks to the top of the rod, which can prevent flammable structures from catching on fire during thunderstorms. Lightning rods divert the lightning created by a trident enchanted with Channeling thrown at an entity during a thunderstorm, or the lightning summoned by commands.[1][Bedrock Edition only]
A lightning rod emits a redstone signal when struck by lightning. A trident with Channeling can be thrown at a lightning rod to create lightning, but no redstone signal is emitted this way.[2][Java Edition only]

A '''golden apple''' is a [[food]] item that bestows beneficial effects when consumed, and is also used to cure a [[Zombie Villager|zombie villager]] under the [[Weakness]] effect into a normal [[villager]].

|Output= Golden Apple

}}
=== Chest loot ===
On the base of <code>ancient_city/city_center/city_center_2</code>, a single golden apple is contained in the [[chest]]. Eating it at that location unlocks the [[piston]] doors to the [[redstone]] labs beneath.
{{LootChestItem|golden-apple}}
== Usage ==
{{see also|Tutorials/Hunger management|title1=Hunger management}}
To eat a golden apple, press and hold {{control|use}} while it is selected in the hotbar. It restores {{hunger|4}} points of hunger and 9.6 hunger [[Hunger#Mechanics|saturation]].
Unlike most foods, golden apples can be eaten when the hunger bar is full.
The golden apple provides:
*[[Absorption]] I for 2 minutes (providing {{hp|4|absorption=1}} points of absorption health)
*[[Regeneration]] II ({{hp|1}} every 25 ticks, {{hp|2|notag=1}} × 0.4 per second) for 5 seconds (long enough to heal {{hp|4}} points of damage)
=== Curing zombie villagers ===
{{main|Zombie Villager#Curing}}
A golden apple and a [[potion of weakness]] can be used to convert a [[zombie villager]] into a regular [[villager]].
=== Horses ===
Golden apples can be used for improving the chances of taming a [[horse]] by 10%, for [[breeding]] and leading horses, and for speeding up the growth of baby horses by 4 minutes.
===Piglins===
{{EntityLink|Piglin|Piglins}} are attracted to golden apples. They run toward any golden apples on the ground, and inspect it for 6 to 8 seconds before putting it in their inventory. However, piglins do not eat golden apples (or any [[food]]).

== Trivia ==
Prior to [[Java Edition Beta 1.8]], the golden apple outwardly restored the player's full {{hp|20}} health points; Internally however, it is set to restore over double that, at {{hp|42}} health points. This is most likely a reference to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hitchhiker's_Guide_to_the_Galaxy The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy], making it restore (the meaning of) life, 42 (health points). This is far before either the [[Absorption]] or [[Health Boost]] effects, causing this reference go unnoticed.

'''Emeralds''' are rare minerals that are used primarily as the currency for [[trading]] with [[villager]]s and [[wandering trader]]s. Naturally-occurring emeralds are rarer than [[diamond]]s.
== Obtaining ==
=== Trading (how emerald is renewable) ===
{{main|Trading}}
Emeralds can be obtained by trading with [[villager]]s, since they are the currency that villagers use for trading. Villagers either buy or sell specific goods for emeralds. Some villagers trade stuff that is renewable with emerald.
=== Mining ===
[[Emerald ore]] drops one emerald when mined using an iron or better [[pickaxe]]. If the pickaxe is enchanted with [[Fortune]], it may drop an extra emerald per level of Fortune, up to a maximum of 4 emeralds with Fortune III. If the ore is mined using a pickaxe enchanted with [[Silk Touch]], it drops itself in ore form instead of an emerald.

Emeralds can generate in [[chest]]s in some [[village]] houses or other generated [[Generated structures|structures]].

{{LootChestItem|emerald}}
=== Drops ===
[[Vindicator]]s and [[evoker]]s drop 0–1 emeralds upon death. [[Looting]] increases the maximum emerald drop by one per level, for a maximum of 4 emeralds with Looting III.
[[Fox]]es that are holding emeralds also have a chance of 100% to drop the emerald they are holding upon death. Alternatively, the player can drop a food item to entice the fox to drop the emerald without killing it.
{{IN|bedrock}}, vindicators and [[pillager]]s spawned from [[raids]] can drop 0–1 emeralds. Depending on difficulty, vindicators and pillagers spawned from raids also have a chance of dropping additional emeralds. There is a 65% chance of dropping on easy and normal, and an 80% chance of dropping on hard. If this additional drop condition is met, different emerald counts can drop with different chances. There is a {{frac|10|39}} chance to drop an additional 0–1 emeralds, a {{frac|5|39}} chance to drop an additional 2–3, and a {{frac|2|39}} chance to drop an additional 4–5.
{{IN|bedrock}}, with Looting III, it is possible for a vindicator in a raid to drop up to 16 emeralds upon death (vindicator drops + raid drops + an additional drop<!-- emerald from 2/39 chance-->).
== Usage ==
=== Trading ===
{{main|Trading}}
Emeralds are primarily used as currency for [[trading]] with villagers and wandering traders. Trading is typically a faster way to obtain emeralds than by mining, as an emerald ore is rarer than a diamond ore.
=== Crafting ingredient ===
{{crafting usage}}
===Beacons===
Emeralds can be used to select powers from a [[beacon]]. The player must select one of the available powers and then insert an emerald into the item slot.
An emerald can be substituted for an [[iron ingot]], a [[gold ingot]], a [[diamond]] or a [[netherite ingot]] in a beacon.

A '''pickaxe''' is a [[tools|tool]] required to mine [[ore]]s, [[rock|rocks]], rock-based blocks and metal-based [[block]]s quickly and obtain them as items. A pickaxe mines faster and can obtain more block types as items depending on the material it is made from.
== Obtaining ==
=== Crafting ===
Pickaxes are crafted using 2 [[stick]]s and 3 identical units of tool material.

}}
==== Unit repair ====
{{main|Anvil mechanics#Unit repair}}
Pickaxes can be repaired in an [[anvil]] by adding units of the [[tiers|tier's]] repair material, with each repair material restoring 25% of the pickaxe's maximum durability, rounded down.
=== Natural generation ===
{{LootChestItem|wooden-pickaxe,stone-pickaxe,iron-pickaxe,level-enchanted-iron-pickaxe,random-enchanted-golden-pickaxe,level-enchanted-diamond-pickaxe,random-enchanted-diamond-pickaxe,damaged-random-enchanted-diamond-pickaxe}}
=== Trading ===
{{IN|bedrock}}, novice-level toolsmith [[Villager|villagers]] have a 25% chance to sell stone pickaxes for one [[emerald]], Journeyman-level toolsmith villagers have a 25% chance to sell enchanted iron pickaxes for 3 emeralds, and master-level toolsmith villagers always sell enchanted diamond pickaxes for 13 emeralds.
{{IN|java}}, novice-level toolsmith villagers have a 40% chance to sell a stone pickaxe for one emerald, journeyman-level toolsmith villagers have a 40% chance to sell an enchanted iron pickaxe for 7–22 emeralds, and a master-level toolsmith always sells an enchanted diamond pickaxe for 18–35 emeralds.
The enchantments are the same as the ones obtained from an [[enchantment table]] at levels 5–19.
=== Villager gifts ===
{{IN|JE}}, toolsmith [[villager]]s throw stone pickaxes at players under the [[Hero of the Village]] effect.
=== Mob loot ===
{{IN|BE}}, [[pillager]]s and [[vindicator]]s have a chance of dropping a damaged iron pickaxe when killed during a [[raid]]. The pickaxe has a 50% chance of being enchanted with random enchantment(s).
== Usage ==
=== Mining ===
A pickaxe is used to break stone and metal-based materials faster. Breaking a block with a pickaxe consumes one use (one durability point). No durability is consumed for blocks that break instantly. Pickaxes have different amounts of uses based on the type:
* Wooden: 60
* Stone: 132
* Iron: 251
* Golden: 33
* Diamond: 1562
* Netherite: 2032
Different qualities of pickaxe are required to successfully harvest certain ores and blocks. For example, while [[stone]] can be mined with any pickaxe, [[gold ore]] must be mined with an [[iron]], [[diamond]], or [[netherite]] pickaxe, or else the player harvests no ore. Different pickaxes also mine many materials at different speeds:
==== Speed ====
The following table shows the time it takes to break each type of block.
* A <span style="background-color:#FFC7CE;color:#9C0006;">red</span> background indicates that the block cannot be harvested with that type of pickaxe.
* A <span style="background-color:#FFFFDD;color:#8A7600;">yellow</span> background indicates that the block cannot be harvested with that type of pickaxe, but still drops something.
* A <span style="background-color:#C6EFCE;color:#006100;">green</span> background indicates that the block can be harvested with that type of pickaxe.

=== Weapon ===
Hitting a mob with a pickaxe is a stronger attack than using fists. Pickaxes lose 2 durability when used as a weapon.
==== Java Edition ====
Pickaxes have an attack speed modifier of −2.8, meaning they take about 0.83 seconds to [[Damage#Attack cooldown|recover]]. All pickaxes have an attack speed of 1.2 hits per second. They deal different damage based on the type:
