So how do you get Clay blocks in Minecraft? Clay is one of the most common blocks in Minecraft. It has a high chance of spawning and often spawns in small bodies of water like swamps, lakes, and mountain rivers. The clay itself is useless, but using you can create Clay Block, Terracotta, and bricks. You can do all of this using the clay balls that you get by breaking the Clay Block. But how do you get a whole Clay Block? You can combine four balls of clay in a workbench to get a clay block, but this is just one of many ways.
How to get Clay Blocks in Minecraft
Clay is a common resource in the Minecraft world. Passing through swamps and lakes, you can find the clay more than once.
Often, clay deposits look like an image of a large gray crystal, but it happens differently. For example, clay in the ocean is most often shapeless, and deposits are large and rare.
You will get four balls of clay breaking one block of clay. Let’s clarify that it doesn’t matter what tools you extract clay with. Breaking the clay with a diamond pickaxe or hand will still give you four clay balls, the only difference being mining speed. Using tools with a luck enchantment will also not help increase the number of balls you receive.
Combine four balls of clay in a workbench to get a clay block. And after can be smelted to make terracotta.
