Usage

Scaffolding building

A stack of scaffolding created by only tapping on the top face of the bottom scaffolding block.

When the bottom block of scaffolding is destroyed all scaffolding blocks above it will break, which makes it easier for players to make temporary structures. Pressing use on the top face of a scaffolding block will place another scaffolding block on top of the stack.

Scaffolding has no collision detection. The player can climb up or down by jumping or sneaking respectively.

Scaffolding can only be placed 1 block out from another scaffolding block; any further scaffolding placed will fall down to the ground.

Issues

Issues relating to "Scaffolding" are maintained on the bug tracker. Report issues there.

==== Anvil ====
Boots can be repaired in an [[Anvil mechanics#Unit repair|anvil]] by adding units of the [[armor material]]'s repair material, with each repair material restoring 25% of the boots' maximum durability, rounded down. Chainmail boots may also be repaired in this way using iron ingots.

They can also be [[Anvil mechanics#Combining items|combined]] with other boots. When doing this, the item's enchantments are not lost, and can even be raised.

==== Crafting ====
You can craft two sets of boots together using a crafting table, but enchantments are removed.

=== Mob loot ===

If a [[zombie]], [[husk]], [[stray]], [[piglin]], or [[skeleton]] is wearing armor, there is a 8.5% chance (9.5% with Looting I, 10.5% with Looting II and 11.5% with Looting III) for the mob to drop boots upon death. The boots are usually badly damaged, and may be enchanted.
[[File:Zombie With Boots.png|alt=Zombie is shown wearing boots|thumb|Zombie is shown wearing full iron armor set, including boots.]]

{{IN|bedrock}}, [[vindicator]]s and [[pillager]]s that spawn in [[raid]]s have a chance to drop iron boots, which are usually badly damaged and have a 50% chance to be enchanted.

=== Chest loot ===

=== Trading ===
{{IN|java}}, novice-level armorer [[villager]]s have 40% chance to sell iron boots for 4 [[emerald]]s. Apprentice-level armorers have a 50% chance to sell chainmail boots for an [[emerald]]. Expert-level armorers always sell enchanted<ref group="note" name="enchantment" /> diamond boots for 11–27 [[emerald]]s. Apprentice-level leatherworker [[villager]]s have {{frac|2|3}} chance to sell leather boots for 4 [[emerald]]s.

Armorer [[villager]]s may give the players with the [[Hero of the Village]] effect chainmail boots.{{only|java}}

=== Bartering ===
[[Piglin]]s may [[bartering|barter]] iron boots with [[Soul Speed]] when given a [[gold ingot]].

=== Fishing ===

Leather boots can be caught as a "junk" item when [[fishing]].

== Usage ==

Boots can be placed in the fourth armor slot of a player's [[inventory]] for activation.

=== Defense points ===

Defense points are each signified by half of a chestplate in the armor bar above the health bar. Each defense point reduces any damage dealt to the player that is absorbed by armor by 4%, increasing additively with the number of defense points. Different materials and combinations of armor provide different levels of defense.

The following table shows the amount of defense points added by boots.

{| class="wikitable" data-description="Boots defense points"

|}

=== Knockback resistance ===
Netherite boots provide 10% knockback resistance.

=== Durability ===

The following table shows the amount of damage each piece of armor can absorb before being destroyed.

Any "hit" from a damage source that can be blocked by armor removes one point of durability from each piece of armor worn for every {{hp|4}} of incoming damage (rounded down, but never below 1). Damage taken that armor doesn't protect (such as [[Damage#Fall damage|falling]] or [[Damage#Drowning|drowning]]) does not damage the armor, even if it is enchanted to protect against that type of damage. The following chart displays how many hits boots can endure.

Netherite armor is not damaged by [[lava]] or [[fire]] when worn.

=== Enchantments ===
Boots can receive the following [[enchantment]]s:

=== Smelting usage ===

{{Smelting|showname=1|Iron Boots;Chainmail Boots;Golden Boots|Iron Nugget;Iron Nugget;Gold Nugget|0,1}}
=== Piglins ===
{{EntityLink|Piglin|Piglins}} are attracted to ''golden'' boots and pick them up, examining them for 6 to 8 seconds. Other boots do not attract piglins but can be worn by them. They prefer stronger boots over weaker boots, with one major exception: They always prefer golden boots over all other boots, throwing out stronger boots to equip them. Enchanted boots are preferred over unenchanted boots.

=== Powder snow===

Leather boots can be used to safely cross [[powder snow]] without sinking in it. The block behaves similar to [[scaffolding]], allowing the player to sink in by pressing {{control|crouch}} and move up by pressing {{control|jump}}. The boots also prevent the wearer from taking freezing damage.

===Decoration===
It is possible to upgrade armor with trims. This requires a [[Smithing Template#Gallery|Smithing Template]], an armor piece, and an ingot or crystal ({{ItemSprite|iron-ingot}}iron ingot/{{ItemSprite|copper-ingot}}copper ingot/{{ItemSprite|gold-ingot}}gold ingot/{{ItemSprite|netherite-ingot}}netherite ingot/{{ItemSprite|emerald}}emerald/{{ItemSprite|redstone-dust}}redstone dust/{{ItemSprite|lapis-lazuli}}lapis lazuli/{{ItemSprite|amethyst-shard}}amethyst shard/{{ItemSprite|nether-quartz}}nether quartz/{{ItemSprite|diamond}}diamond).

These trims have no effect on the gameplay or strength of the armor.

An '''arrow''' serves as ammunition for [[bow]]s, [[crossbow]]s, and [[dispenser]]s. Arrows can be modified to give [[status effects]] to [[player]]s and [[mob]]s.

== Obtaining ==

=== Picking up arrows ===

Arrows shot by players can always be [[#Retrieving|picked up]] in Creative mode.

An arrow ''cannot'' be picked up by a player in [[Survival]] or [[Adventure]] mode if:
* It is shot by a player in [[Creative]] mode.
* It is shot by any [[mob]] able to shoot arrows, such as [[skeleton]]s, [[stray]]s, [[pillager]]s, or [[piglin]]s. This includes mobs that do not shoot arrows in normal gameplay, such as [[illusioner]]s and bow-wielding [[wither skeleton]]s.
** This is the case even in Creative mode.<ref>{{bug|MC-128845|||WAI}}</ref>
* It is shot with an [[Infinity]]-enchanted [[bow]].
* It is one of the two extra arrows shot with a [[Multishot]]-enchanted [[crossbow]].

=== Mob loot ===

[[Skeleton]]s and [[stray]]s drop 0-2 arrows upon death. The maximum drop is increased by 1 per level of [[Looting]], for a maximum of 0–5 arrows with Looting III.

Strays have a 50% chance of dropping 1 arrow of [[Slowness]] when killed by a player. Each level of Looting increases the chance of this drop by 50% of the previous chance. This results in a maximum of 93.75% with Looting III.

{{IN|bedrock}}, [[pillager]]s also drop 0–2 arrows upon death. The maximum drop is increased by 1 per level of Looting, for a maximum of 0-5 arrows with Looting III.

=== Trading ===

Novice-level fletcher [[villager]]s have a 50% chance {{in|bedrock}}, or a {{frac|2|3}} chance {{in|java}}, to sell 16 arrows for one [[emerald]] as part of their trades.

{{IN|bedrock}}, master-level fletcher villagers have a {{frac|1|2}} chance to sell 5 tipped arrows for 2 emeralds and 5 arrows. {{IN|java}}, they have a {{frac|2|3}} chance to sell 5 tipped arrows for 2 emeralds and 5 arrows.  Trades {{in|java}} can be the base effect, level II, or extended; {{in|bedrock}}, only the arrow of decay is level II.<!-- A check should be made if it chooses randomly from the whole of the list of possible arrows variants, or it it chooses a base arrow potion effect, then randomly choose from that arrow's options. The first one would make arrow's without a level II, like Fire Resistance for example, slightly less likely than ones with all three options like Swiftness.  -->

<!-- None are extended duration, but villagers can trade level 2 arrows. -->
* Arrow of [[Fire Resistance]]
* Arrow of [[Harming]]
* Arrow of [[Healing]]
* Arrow of [[Invisibility]]
* Arrow of [[Leaping]]
* Arrow of [[Night Vision]]
* Arrow of [[Poison]]
* Arrow of [[Regeneration]]
* Arrow of [[Slowness]]
* Arrow of [[Strength]]
* Arrow of [[Swiftness]]
* Arrow of the [[Potion of the Turtle Master|Turtle Master]]
* Arrow of [[Water Breathing]]
* Arrow of [[Weakness]]
* Arrow of [[Slow Falling]]{{only|java}}<!-- bedrock fletchers never sell arrows of slow falling -->
* Arrow of [[Decay]]{{only|bedrock}}

These are all potion effects except Slow Falling {{in|bedrock}} and [[Luck]] {{in|java}}. Trading is the only legitimate way to obtain arrows of Decay in [[Survival]] mode.

=== Bartering ===

Spectral arrows{{only|java}}/normal arrows{{only|bedrock}} can be obtained through [[bartering]] with [[piglin]]s, and have a ~8.71% chance to give the [[player]] 6-12 arrows.

=== Villager gifts ===
{{IN|java}}, any regular or tipped arrow (except for [[luck]] and [[Bad Luck]] arrows) can be obtained as a reward item from [[fletcher]] [[villager]]s when the player has the [[Hero of the Village]] status effect.

=== Retrieving ===

Arrows stuck in a block that were originally shot by dispensers or by players in [[Survival]] without the [[Infinity]] enchantment may be collected. Arrows originally shot by [[skeleton]]s, [[stray]]s, [[illusioner]]s, [[pillager]]s, [[piglin]]s, players in [[Creative]], players using the [[Infinity]] enchantment, or duplicate arrows created by [[Crossbow]]s with the [[Multishot]] enchantment cannot be collected. Arrows cannot be retrieved when they are stuck in a player or mob, and players or mobs do not drop them when killed. Retrievable arrows have a despawn timer of 60 seconds.

=== Cauldrons ===
{{main|Cauldron#Potions}}

{{IN|bedrock}}, tipped arrows can also be obtained by using arrows on [[Cauldron#Potions|cauldrons]] that contain [[potion]]s. The number of tipped arrows created depends on the potion inside the cauldron. When the cauldron is {{frac|1|3}} full, 16 arrows can be tipped. When the cauldron is {{frac|2|3}} full, up to 32 arrows can be tipped and when the cauldron is full, an entire stack of 64 arrows can be tipped. This is more efficient than using lingering potions as up to 21.33 arrows can be tipped per potion.

== Usage ==
{{see also|Bow}}

When fired, arrows fly in a [[wikipedia:Trajectory of a projectile|ballistic trajectory]] affected by gravity and drag in [[air]], [[water]], and [[lava]]. The arrow's velocity is multiplied by 0.99 every game tick, and it also experiences 20 block/s<sup>2</sup> of downward acceleration induced by gravity.

Arrows travel approximately 3 [[block]]s when fired parallel to a flat plane with no charge, 15 blocks average with medium charge, and 24 blocks average with maximum charge. When fired from a fully charged bow, arrows can travel 120 blocks if fired from an optimal angle. The maximum height an arrow fired by a bow can reach is around 66 blocks.

An arrow fired in water experiences much more drag than in air: it moves less than 8 blocks before completely losing horizontal speed and falling straight down, although the knockback of the arrow remains unaffected. It also leaves a trail of bubbles in its wake.

There is a random variable to the trajectory of an arrow, given by <code>this.rand.nextGaussian() * 0.0075 * (double)inaccuracy</code> for the x, y and z coordinate. The inaccuracy is relatively small, becoming noticeable over larger distances. The inaccuracy of different arrow delivery devices may differ. Dispensers fire with an inaccuracy of 6, while bows fire with an inaccuracy of 1.

An arrow's speed determine the damage it inflicts. The damage inflicted is calculated by multiplying the arrow's [[#Entity data|damage value]] with its velocity in blocks per [[Tick#Game tick|game tick]]. When fired from a fully-charged unenchanted bow, arrows do {{hp|6}} of damage, with a smaller chance to damage for up to {{hp|11}} via critical hits. They inflict up to {{hp|5}} damage from a medium-charged bow, and {{hp|1}} from a bow with no charge. Arrows fired from dispensers always do {{hp|3}} of damage unless their velocity is modified by an external source. Arrows fired from [[crossbow]]s do {{hp|6}} to {{hp|11}} of damage.

Arrows trigger [[Damage#Immunity|damage immunity]] on hit. However, unlike other methods of damage that may bypass invulnerability under certain conditions, arrows hitting the mob while it is invulnerable lose all speed and drop to the ground, dealing no damage unless they contact another mob.

[[File:ArrowShotInTree.png|thumb|An arrow shot into a [[tree]].]]
Arrows also stick into objects they come in contact with and remain there for one minute before disappearing; the distance from the object and the angle determine how far into the target the arrow penetrates. Such arrows may be [[#Retrieving|retrieved]].

If the arrow has any custom potion effects (NBT tag <code>CustomPotionEffects</code>), all potion effects, including vanilla potion effects (NBT tag <code>Potion</code>) are removed 30 seconds after the arrow stops moving.

If an arrow is stuck in a block, and that block is broken or disappears (e.g., [[leaves]] upon decay), then the arrow falls straight down and damages entities below, but never deals a critical hit. The 1-minute despawn timer is then refreshed, meaning it will take another minute for the arrow to despawn.

Arrows bounce off players and mobs immune to damage, like a player in Creative mode, a [[wither]] under the "wither armor" effect, and a perching [[ender dragon]].

Arrows shot through [[lava]] or (if there's at least a 2 block gap) [[fire]] catch on fire and show an appropriate animation until they pass through water. Like arrows shot from a bow with the Flame enchantment, they can set other entities they hit on fire for 5 seconds as well as ignite TNT and campfires.

An arrow shot at any kind of boat{{only|java|short=1}} or minecart causes the vehicle to break, dropping any components (including container contents).

Arrows can get visually stuck in players {{in|java}}, although not any mobs. They appear as regular arrows regardless of type.<ref>{{bug|MC-83933|||WAI}}</ref>

=== Redstone circuits ===

An arrow can activate a wooden [[button]], wooden [[pressure plate]], a [[tripwire]], or a [[target]]. An arrow will continue to power these blocks until it is removed, either due to despawning, or being picked up. Target blocks emit a redstone pulse for one second, as opposed to the static depressed state of the other switches. Non-wooden switches are not affected by arrows.

When arrows are fired into the sides of blocks, they change their orientation to point more downward than their original flight path might indicate. This can cause them to intersect and thus trigger switches above them that they didn't actually hit, or block rails above them.

=== Explosions ===

Arrows are affected by explosions while they are in flight. Since explosions can increase the speed of an arrow, they can also increase the damage dealt by them. {{only|Java}}

== Variants ==

=== Tipped arrows ===
{{See also|#Crafting}}

Tipped arrows are arrows that imbue a potion effect when hitting a mob or player. The duration of the effect is {{frac|1|8}} that of the corresponding potion, if applicable, and is not affected by the power of the arrow. The status effect is the same as the regular power effect for the potion. If a bow is enchanted with [[Infinity]], tipped arrows are still consumed. 

The types of arrows are:

<div class="list-style-none" style="-moz-column-width:19em;-webkit-column-width:19em;column-width:19em">
* {{ItemLink|link=none|Arrow of Regeneration}}
* {{ItemLink|link=none|Arrow of Swiftness}}
* {{ItemLink|link=none|Arrow of Fire Resistance}}
* {{ItemLink|link=none|Arrow of Healing}}

* {{ItemLink|link=none|Arrow of Decay}}{{only|bedrock|short=1}}
* {{ItemLink|link=none|Arrow of the Turtle Master}}
* {{ItemLink|link=none|Arrow of Slow Falling}}
</div>

Arrows of Harming (and arrows of Healing when used against undead mobs) do not add a static amount of damage to the arrow.<ref>{{bug|MC-107856||Arrows of harming/healing do not stack with bow damage}}</ref> Instead, the arrow's damage is first calculated, then checked to see if it is below {{Health|12}}. If the arrow's damage is less than 12, the Harming effect of the arrow makes up the difference, to ensure the arrow does exactly {{Health|12}}. Therefore, an unenchanted bow cannot deal more than 12 damage using Harming (or Healing) arrows, as it can deal a maximum of {{Health|11}} damage on level ground. However, if the arrow would deal more than 12 damage, the harming effect is entirely neutralized. This means that bows enchanted with Power I through Power III has a chance to not utilize the arrow at full charge, and any Power level above III never utilizes Arrows of Harming effectively at full charge when against unarmored mobs/players. 

==== No-effect tipped arrows ====

It is possible to craft tipped arrows using [[Lingering Potion#Lingering water bottle|Lingering Water Bottles]] as well as Awkward, Thick, and Mundane [[Lingering Potion|Lingering potions]]. If crafted with a water bottle, the arrow is called an arrow of Splashing. If crafted with Mundane, Awkward, or Thick potions, it is called a tipped arrow.<ref>{{bug|MC-158539}}</ref> Tipped arrows crafted from different potions do not stack, as resultant tipped arrows all have different potion tags.

In Bedrock Edition, all four kinds as well as the long mundane tipped arrow aren't obtainable either in creative, by cauldrons, by crafting, or by commands.

All four kinds generate blue particles in flight and upon landing, but otherwise behave like regular arrows. In particular, arrow of Splashing has no effect on fire and campfires and when shot from a bow with the Flame enchantment, can light campfires and TNT just like regular arrows on fire.

==== Uncraftable tipped arrows ====

{{IN|java}}, the uncraftable tipped arrow is a tipped arrow with no effect that is unobtainable in regular gameplay. It is available in two variants that don't stack together:

* {{cmd|/give @s minecraft:tipped_arrow{Potion:"minecraft:empty"} }} - arrow assigned an effect placeholder "empty" 
* {{cmd|/give @s minecraft:tipped_arrow }} - arrow not assigned any effect.

The uncraftable arrow doesn't differ from regular arrows in behavior when used as a projectile.

=== Spectral arrows ===
{{exclusive|java}}
A spectral arrow confers the [[Glowing]] status effect for 10 seconds. The Glowing effect creates an outline of the target, which is visible through blocks, and colored based on the target's [[team]] (white by default). Even if a bow is enchanted with [[Infinity]], spectral arrows are still consumed. Spectral arrows can be acquired through [[bartering]] or crafted by combining 4 [[Glowstone Dust#Crafting ingredient|glowstone dust]] with one arrow, yielding 2 spectral arrows.

== Trivia ==
* By default, arrows fly slightly offset to the right. If the player stands close to a wall and fires several arrows without moving the crosshair, the arrows cluster around a point slightly to the right of the crosshair. If the player switches their main hand to be the left hand in options, the arrows instead cluster to the left.
* Arrows fired at [[Nether Portal]]s often skip through the portal block completely and fail to collide, thus continuing through to the opposite side of the block.
* Arrows stuck in blocks vibrate upon a world reload.<ref>{{bug|MC-93992}} – "Arrow shakes when world loads" resolved as "Won't Fix"</ref>
* Although [[enderman|endermen]] teleport when hit by any tipped arrow, they are still given the said effects while avoiding arrow damage.
* {{IN|bedrock}}, even if a tipped arrow is blocked with a shield, while the direct damage from the arrows is negated, the player still gets the effect from the tipped arrow.<ref>{{bug|MCPE-52904}}</ref>

'''Shulker shells''' are [[item]]s dropped by [[shulker]]s that are used solely to craft [[shulker box]]es.

== Obtaining ==
=== Mob loot ===
{{IN|bedrock}}, [[shulker]]s drop 0-1 shulker shells. The maximum can be increased by 1 per level of [[Looting]], which is 0-4 shells with Looting III.

{{IN|java}}, shulkers have a 50% chance of dropping a shulker shell when killed. This is increased by 6.25% per level of [[Looting]], for a maximum of 68.75% with Looting III.

'''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.

=== Crafting ===

{{Crafting
|Block of Emerald
|Output= Emerald,9
|type= Material
}}

=== Smelting ===

{{Smelting
|Emerald Ore; Deepslate Emerald Ore
|Emerald
|1
}}

=== Natural generation ===
{{see also|Emerald Ore#Natural generation}}

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

{{needs update|inaccurate=1|section=1}}
{{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.
