Overview
Mossy Cobblestone is one of the 3 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. Cobblestone is the same shape in a different material.
Mossy Cobblestone is a stone-family block in Minecraft Java Edition 1.21.4. Mossy Cobblestone is made at a crafting table. Hardness 2 puts it in the middle of the pack for mining speed.
Mine it with a wooden pickaxe or better, or you get no drop at all. Broken correctly, it drops itself. Sixty-four fit in one inventory slot.
The recipe calls for Cobblestone and Moss Block. It is an ingredient in 4 recipes, among them Mossy Cobblestone Slab, Mossy Cobblestone Stairs, Mossy Cobblestone Wall and 1 more.
About the cobblestone set
How long it takes to break
At a hardness of 2, Mossy Cobblestone takes 10 seconds to punch out and 0.35 seconds with a netherite-tier tool of the correct class.
Iron takes 0.5 seconds against diamond's 0.4, so the upgrade worth making for this block is the one to iron.
Below wooden the block breaks and simply vanishes. Bring the right tier or leave it in the ground.
The Efficiency formula is level² + 1 added to tool speed — at V that is about 3.5 times the unenchanted rate.
| Tool | No enchantment | Efficiency III | Efficiency V |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hand * | 10 s | 10 s | 10 s |
| Wooden | 1.5 s | 0.25 s | 0.15 s |
| Stone | 0.75 s | 0.25 s | 0.1 s |
| Iron | 0.5 s | 0.2 s | 0.1 s |
| Diamond | 0.4 s | 0.2 s | 0.1 s |
| Netherite | 0.35 s | 0.2 s | 0.1 s |
| Golden | 0.25 s | 0.15 s | 0.1 s |
Properties
Mossy Cobblestone has a blast resistance of 6, so a nearby explosion will usually destroy it. It blocks light completely and emits no light of its own. 64 fit in a slot — a full stack. It is renewable, so one world can supply as much of it as you want. 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.
