Overview
Dark Oak Button is one of the 13 variants of this shape in the game. What changes between them is the material, and with it the hardness, the drops, the durability and the recipe — so every figure on this page is this variant's own. Oak Button is the same shape in a different material.
Dark Oak Button counts as a redstone block in Minecraft 1.21.4. Dark Oak Button has a crafting recipe, so it is renewable as long as you can source its ingredients. With a hardness of 0.5 it gives way immediately under almost any tool.
Any tool works, and so do bare hands. Mining it returns the block itself, so it is safe to relocate. It is transparent, which matters when you are managing light levels.
With a blast resistance of only 0.5 it will not survive an explosion. Sixty-four fit in one inventory slot. The recipe calls for Dark Oak Planks.
It is not used in any crafting recipe.
About the dark oak set
How long it takes to break
Hardness 0.5 puts Dark Oak Button at 0.75 seconds a block bare-handed, or 0.1 seconds with the right tool at netherite tier.
Iron takes 0.15 seconds against diamond's 0.1, so the upgrade worth making for this block is the one to diamond.
There is no tier requirement to worry about. Any tool, or none, returns the drop; the numbers below just say how fast.
Efficiency contributes its level squared plus one to tool speed, which makes Efficiency V roughly 2 times faster than the plain tool.
| Tool | No enchantment | Efficiency III | Efficiency V |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hand | 0.75 s | 0.75 s | 0.75 s |
| Wooden | 0.4 s | 0.1 s | instant |
| Stone | 0.2 s | 0.1 s | instant |
| Iron | 0.15 s | instant | instant |
| Diamond | 0.1 s | instant | instant |
| Netherite | 0.1 s | instant | instant |
| Golden | 0.1 s | instant | instant |
Properties
With 0.5 blast resistance Dark Oak Button goes down to any nearby explosion. It is transparent to light and produces no light. One inventory slot holds 64, the normal full stack. The block is tagged for axes, and only that class gets the speed bonus; everything else mines at bare-hand rate. As furnace fuel it burns for 15 seconds — one and a half smelting operations.
