Minecraft: Find Glowstone - the best tips and tricks
Glowstones illuminate every dark room in Minecraft. In this practical tip you can read how you can find and best dismantle the most luminous element in this game.
Minecraft: Find Glowstone - the best tips and tricks
- Glowstones can only be found in the Nether. Here they generate in clusters with approx. 40 Glowstone blocks each on the ceiling.
- These clusters are generally very common. However, they are often located directly under lava lakes. Therefore, build a platform under the Glowstone deposit and secure yourself against a possible crash before you start mining.
- Branched cave systems are also generated in the Nether. Find Glowstone in these locations to farm safely.
- The light stone can be removed with all tools, even with the bare hand. When dismantling, the glowstone itself is not dropped, but 2 to 4 glowstone dust. To get an entire block again, 4 glowstone dust must be arranged in a square on a crafting surface.
Minecraft: mine Glowstone more efficiently
- Enchant a tool with which you can mine the Glowstone with luck. So you always get 4 glowstone dust, which in turn make up 1 glowstone block.
- You can also enchant the tool with care. This has the effect that the block as a whole drops when dismantled.
- Note that enchantments in Minecraft are very expensive. However, if you have plenty of experience points, this way is recommended.
- There is also a way to get Glowstone for those who prefer to avoid the Nether. Villagers with a purple cloak (clergymen) offer glowstone dust for exchange.
