Deepslate Tile Wall — Minecraft block

Overview

Minecraft classifies Deepslate Tile Wall as a stone-family block. Deepslate Tile Wall has a crafting recipe, so it is renewable as long as you can source its ingredients. At hardness 3.5 this is one of the tougher blocks in the game.

It needs at least a wooden pickaxe to drop anything; a weaker tool destroys it for nothing. Mining it returns the block itself, so it is safe to relocate. A full stack holds 64.

It is crafted from Deepslate Tiles. The stonecutter is the cheaper route: one Cobbled Deepslate gives one of these. No recipe takes it as an ingredient.

About the deepslate set

How long it takes to break

Deepslate Tile Wall has a hardness of 3.5. By hand that is 18 seconds per block; with the correct tool at netherite tier it is 0.6 seconds.

Iron takes 0.9 seconds against diamond's 0.7, so the upgrade worth making for this block is the one to iron.

It will break below wooden, and you will get nothing for it. That combination of time spent and drop lost is the classic mining mistake.

Efficiency adds its level squared plus one to the tool speed, so Efficiency V is about 4 times faster than the same tool unenchanted.

Properties

Blast resistance on Deepslate Tile Wall is 6, so an explosion nearby will usually take it out. It stops light entirely and gives off no light. One inventory slot holds 64, the normal full stack. A pickaxe is fastest here; any other class mines it at bare-hand speed, because the bonus only applies to the class the block is tagged for.
