A siege. Note the two skeletons on the right.

Zombie sieges are in-game events that occur when many zombies spawn in a village. They occur regardless of how well lit or walled off a village is.

Usually, a whole mob of zombies will concentrate on one door or villager, and in Hard and Hardcore mode, will break wooden doors down, giving entrance to the building. This causes the villagers to flee their homes and get attacked by the zombies on their way out.

Defense

Villagers will commonly enter their houses and close the door before any zombies can get in, but they will not attack.

Iron Golems defend villagers from zombies and other mobs during such attacks and all other times, and can naturally spawn in a 16x16x16 area around the center of the larger villages.

Surrounding a village with a wall and lighting it are staple defenses against normal hostile mobs, especially Creepers. However, they are ineffective for sieges because the zombies can spawn inside even a well-lit village. Zombies may prefer to spawn outside of the village or in the dark when given an access route. If so, this allows players to defend villages by creating pressure plate drawbridges or "kill-channels" that limit zombie entrance.

It is impossible to completely avoid zombie sieges (unless you play on peaceful). If every block within the radius of the village has a half slab on top if it, the zombies will often spawn inside blocks, even solid blocks if there are no transparent blocks nearby, then walk towards the villagers through the wall (Confirmed in 1.3.2.) Zombie sieges also do not follow the 24-block rule, meaning they can spawn just a few blocks from the player.

Trapping a villager in a ring of fence posts will likely attract Zombies, giving the player/golem a chance to take the zombies down one by one.

Wolves and Snow Golems may also be stationed to keep the horde at bay, however Snow Golems will be useless in a desert village due to damage incurred from the biome and carry the risk of causing friendly fire with the Iron Golems. Wolves are easy to maintain due to the large quantity of rotten flesh that a horde will yield when defeated.

Hard mode: All doors should be one block above the ground. This still allows villagers to enter but prevents zombies from breaking in, unless they end up spawning inside houses.

Recovery

Villagers repopulate if there is open space in the NPC village. This means that villagers can recover from sieges by having children to repopulate the NPC village, provided there are at least two villagers and enough space in the NPC village. Player-made houses can also cause villagers to repopulate, as long as it is within the NPC village, has a wooden door, and has a 3x3 space inside. Iron Golems lost in the siege will eventually respawn if the NPC village has at least 10 villagers, or can be manually rebuilt by the player.

Unfortunately, these conditions are rarely sufficient to keep villages from being depopulated in short order without active defense by the player. As of snapshot 12w32a, there is an option, albeit a difficult one, to repopulate villages: Curing zombie villagers. Besides spawning as a fraction of ordinary zombies, some villagers attacked by zombies will be "infected" instead of killed. Zombie villagers can be turned into villagers by splashing them with a splash potion of weakness, then feeding them a golden apple, and waiting. However, the cure is not instant -- it will be necessary to confine the "patient" away from living villagers, and usually to protect them from the sun as well. They will emit red particles until they are cured.

An '''amethyst shard''' is a crystal obtained from mining a fully grown [[amethyst cluster]] or can be obtained from chests in [[Ancient City|ancient cities]].

== Obtaining ==

=== Mining ===
An [[amethyst cluster]] mined using a non-[[Silk Touch]], non-[[Fortune]] [[pickaxe]] drops 4 amethyst shards. When mined using any other tool, [[item]] or mechanism (such as [[explosion]]s or [[piston]]s) it drops 2 shards. The maximum amount of amethyst shards dropped can be increased with Fortune. Fortune I gives a {{frac|1|3}} chance for eight shards, averaging 5.33 shards; Fortune II gives a 25% chance (each) to give eight or 12 shards, averaging 7 shards, and Fortune III gives a 20% chance (each) to give 8, 12, or 16 shards, averaging 8.8 shards.

If the amethyst cluster in any of its growth stages is mined using a pickaxe enchanted with [[Silk Touch]], it drops itself rather than amethyst shards.

=== Allay duplication ===
If an amethyst shard is given to an [[allay]] that is currently dancing to an active [[jukebox]], the allay emits heart particles, consumes the amethyst shard and duplicates into another allay. After this, there is a 5 minute cool down until both allays can be duplicated like this again.

'''Clocks''' are [[Daylight cycle|time]]-telling devices that display the current in-game position of the sun and the moon. Clocks only function properly in the [[Overworld]].

== Obtaining ==

=== Crafting ===

{{Crafting

=== Natural generation ===

{{LootChestItem|clock}}

=== Trading ===

Expert-level [[Trading#Librarian|librarian villagers]] have a {{frac|1|3}} (roughly 33.3%) chance to sell a single clock for 4 [[emerald]]s as part of their trades.{{only|bedrock}}

Expert-level librarian villagers have a {{frac|1|2}} (50%) chance to sell a clock for 5 emeralds.{{only|java}}

== Usage ==

[[File:WatchCycle.gif|thumb|Clock animation]]
The clock dial consists of two halves, a day side and a night side. The dial spins clockwise slowly to indicate the time of day, corresponding to the sun or moon's actual position in the sky. The player is able to [[bed|sleep]] a few seconds after the clock shows exactly dusk.

The dial always shows the current in-game time when in the [[Overworld]], regardless of where it appears. This includes a player's hand, an inventory slot, a [[Crafting table|crafting grid]], an [[item frame]], or even as a dropped [[Item (entity)|item]]. For a clock to be mounted on a wall, an [[item frame]] is required.

Because there is no day/night cycle in [[the Nether]] or [[the End]], clocks do not work properly in these dimensions. Instead, the dial rotates rapidly and randomly, making them useless.

=== Piglins ===
{{EntityLink|Piglin|Piglins}} are attracted to clocks and run toward any clock on the ground, and inspect it for 6 to 8 seconds before putting it in their inventory.

* {{IN|java}}, the default resource pack for the clock contains 64 individual frames, each frame lasting about 18.75 seconds in real time (375 ticks) (1350 seconds (22 minutes, 30 seconds) in Minecraft time).
* When the time of day changes suddenly, such as after sleeping or when {{cmd|time}} is used, the clock dial spins rapidly to catch up.

'''minecraft:dupe_hack''' is a joke item from [[Java Edition 23w13a_or_b]].

==Obtaining==

Once the <code>dupe_hack_occurrence_chance</code> vote is approved the '''dupe hack''' item has a random chance of dropping whenever an entity with chests is killed by a player, e.g. when destroying a [[Minecart with Chest|minecart with chest]] with a [[sword]].

It doesn't appear in the [[creative]] menu, not even when the [[Options#Controls|option]] "Operator Items Tab" is enabled, but can be given to the player with [[Commands/give|<code>/give</code>]] and other commands.

==Usage==
The dupe hack item can be used to create a limited amount of duplicate items by placing it on a [[crafting table]] with any other item. It has a random chance of breaking, controlled by the <code>dupe_hack_break_chance</code> vote. This limitation can be mostly bypassed by putting the items in an [[Ender Chest|ender chest]] first and duplicating the chest.

'''Sugar cane''' is a block found as 1–4-block-tall. It plants near water in the [[Overworld]]. As an item, it is an important crafting ingredient.

== Obtaining ==
Sugar cane can be mined instantly with anything.

When the spot a sugar cane block is placed in becomes unsuitable, such as when the supporting block is removed, the sugar cane block uproots and drops as an item. {{IN|be}}, sugar cane uproots immediately after all adjacent water is removed. {{IN|je}}, sugar cane uproots on the next block update or [[Tick#Random tick|random tick]].

A sugar cane block drops itself as an item if a piston tries to push it (trying to pull it does nothing) or moves a block into its space.

=== Natural generation ===
[[File:Sugar Canez.png|thumb|250px|Naturally-occurring sugar cane near a river.]]
Sugar cane can generate naturally near [[water]], as two ({{frac|11|18}} chance), three ({{frac|5|18}} chance), or four ({{frac|2|18}} chance) blocks tall. Rare taller sugar canes can be found if the world generator places two smaller canes on top of each other. It generates in approximately 0.8 sugar cane per chunk seeing as how they only generate near bodies of water.

Sugar canes attempt to generate 10 times in any Overworld biome, which requires water. An extra 10 attempts are made in [[swamp]] biomes, and 50 in [[desert]] biomes, which makes sugar cane twice as frequent in swamps and six times as frequent in desert biomes, making the banks of [[river]]s that cut through deserts lined with sugar canes.

Sugar cane cannot generate in caves {{in|je}}.<ref>{{bug|MC-214959||Sugar cane generated in cave|Fixed}}</ref>

=== Trading ===
[[Wandering trader]]s can sell sugar cane for an [[emerald]].

== Usage ==
Due to its water-displacing properties, sugar cane can interestingly be used to create underwater paths, allowing [[player]]s to move at normal speed and breathe if it is two blocks in height.{{only|java}}<ref>{{bug|MC-929||Sugar cane can be placed underwater|WAI}}</ref>

Sugar cane takes on a different shade of green depending on the biome in which it is placed.

=== Crafting ingredient ===
{{crafting usage}}

=== Farming ===
{{main|Tutorials/Sugar cane farming}}
[[File:Underground Sugar Farm.png|200px|thumb|An underground sugar cane farm.]]

Sugar cane can generate naturally up to any number of blocks tall, but ''grow'' only to a height of three blocks, adding a block of height when the top sugar cane block has received 16 random [[Tick#Block tick|block tick]]s (i.e. on average every 18 minutes on ''Java Edition''<!-- Average 68.27 seconds/tick * 16 ticks/growth = 18.2 minutes --> or 54 minutes on Bedrock Edition, but the actual rate can vary widely). 
Sugar cane must be planted on a [[grass block]], [[dirt]], [[coarse dirt]], [[rooted dirt]], [[podzol]], [[mycelium]], [[sand]], [[red sand]], [[suspicious sand]], [[moss block]], or [[mud]] that is directly adjacent to [[water]], [[waterlogged]] block, or [[frosted ice]] (not merely above or diagonal to water), or on top of another sugar cane block. The adjacent water block can be covered with another block, whether [[opacity|opaque or transparent]], and sugar cane can still be placed and grow next to it. Sugar cane grows regardless of light level, even in complete darkness.
[[File:4blockcane.png|thumb|A natural 4-block-high sugar cane plant.]]
{{IN|bedrock}}, [[bone meal]] can be used to instantly grow sugar cane to three blocks. Only one bone meal is consumed. {{IN|java}}, bone meal cannot be used on sugar cane.<ref>{{bug|MC-73963||Can't use bonemeal on cacti or sugar cane|WAI}}</ref>

On average, it takes [[Tutorials/Sugar_cane_farming#Mechanics|18 minutes]] for a single block of sugar cane to grow 3 blocks tall.

=== Composting ===
Placing sugar cane into a [[composter]] has a 50% chance of raising the compost level by 1.

{{:Technical blocks/Sugar Cane}}

== Issues ==
{{Issue list}}

== Trivia ==
*When a sugar cane is broken at the second level, the time resets (for example, if a two-block high sugar cane is broken, but is just about to grow to the third stage, it would reset that time).
*By placing more sugar canes on top of a sugar cane plant, it is possible to create tall sugar canes (up to y=319, the maximum height for building), although they do not naturally grow this high.
*Before sugar cane received an official name, they were sometimes referred to as [[bamboo]], a block added 9 years later. Other names were "reeds" and "papyrus".

Iron Golems were added specifically to protect Villagers against attacks such as zombie sieges.

Trivia

  • When a zombie is attacking a villager or door, it will usually ignore the player unless the player attacks it.
  • Zombies also attack villager children.
  • Sieges cannot occur when it's raining in another biome during the day because the Zombies will burn when attempting to attack the villagers. However, when it's raining in another biome during night, sieges can still occur.
  • Although zombies are the only mob that attacks villagers, Iron Golems still attack other hostile or neutral mobs. This is probably because they can be created by the player for self-defense, not for defending a village; it could also mean that other mobs may lead sieges against villages.
  • If the player spawns a lot of zombies, they will eventually start a siege and all crowd one door.
  • Sieges can occur in player-made villages and mushroom biomes, despite zombies not spawning in mushroom biomes naturally. This is further evidence that sieges are different from standard mob spawning.
  • As of 12w32a, if the player turns mob spawning off with the cheat /gamerule, sieges can still occur.
  • Early in development, Notch considered adding a gamemode Zombie Siege. It would be you fighting waves of monsters (likely Zombies). This gamemode was, however, never implemented, and has since been abandoned.
  • The chance of trying to start a siege is 10% for each night, but the start may still fail due to other reason. If it does start one, no other sieges will be started that night.
  • The siege consists of up to 20 extra zombies, all spawning randomly near a single spot chosen randomly inside a square centered with village center and edges twice the village radius (a bug is related to this, though).

Issues

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