Title: Notice - Silk touch
Post by: optical on January 15, 2012, 09:31:31 pm
Silktouch is enabled, but will not work on Diamond, Lapis, Redstone and Coal ores - These are used for protection, bar redstone, which is reserved in case we need it later.

Silktouch will work on all other blocks as expected.

Cheers,
Optical.

Out of interest, what happens if you try to destroy diamond/redstone/coal/lapis with silk touch?

I am guessing it gives you what you would get without this ability.

The block reappears saying it cannot be mined using silk touch.

Like say if you are using silk touch, and you destroy some grass, without silk touch, the grass would turn into dirt, but with silk touch, it is always grass. So it gives you EXACTLY what you mined

Silk Touch is when you can mine, lets say diamonds and you dont get a diamond, you get the ore.

The two purposes of silk touch for most people, is so you can mine mycilum and keep the mycilum. The other reason is so you don't have to bake your stone to turn it smooth.

You can also use it to mine spawners which turns them into pig spawners

Taken from http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Enchanting

-Silk Touch does not work on monster spawners nor ice (as of Minecraft 1.0.0).

-Items able to be obtained legitimately only through use of silk touch:

Grass Block
Coal Ore
Lapis Lazuli Ore
Diamond Ore
Redstone Ore
All huge mushroom blocks
Mycelium

*unable on our SMP

Dammit, i only wanted it for redstone, it's the only block that created a block update when you walk over it D:
i was gonna make a secret door with it :L :(

You cant from the market.
Title: Re: Notice - Silk touch
Post by: arsenic_shark on January 17, 2012, 07:07:15 pm
you can still get red stone ore to use for a door,

What you cant do is mine the redstone block with silk touch, as it might be used as a protection block later on.

Oh yeah... I read some but I didnt see explanation.
Another question. How do we find that? Is that a mod? a tool? what?
And whats the reason to dont get the actual outcome from a broken block?
Can this help you double the sources? no ah? so? whats the profit by using it?
Title: Re: Notice - Silk touch
Post by: Tobs on January 18, 2012, 03:38:56 pm
Silk touch is a tool enchantment, which can improve your ip, from the xp you collected
Title: Re: Notice - Silk touch
Post by: Spamarian on January 18, 2012, 03:42:20 pm
Ip? Sorry, But you really need to give a good explanation if you wanna help because now, you confused me more..
Title: Re: Notice - Silk touch

Sorry, stupid phone keyboard... ip was meant to be tool/weapon

Silk touch is an enchantment that allows you to pick up any block you destroyed as the block itself. So when you destroy diamond ore with it, you will get the ore block itself, not the diamond.
Title: Re: Notice - Silk touch
Post by: Spamarian on January 19, 2012, 12:36:41 pm
hm.. Is this any of the choices when you try to enchant tools/weapons? Does this require a minimum level?
Title: Re: Notice - Silk touch
Post by: arsenic_shark on January 19, 2012, 03:56:58 pm
It is one of the many choices (http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Enchanting on this page you will find more)

It is only available on the pickaxe and is only available at a high level, I believe (20+)
Title: Re: Notice - Silk touch

Oh.. So high? I have never reached 8 or 10. So, it is still far..

Probably, you didnt understand. I never laugh on others. If I do it, it will be obvious.
By saying that: I dont know where it is, I am saying you that it is completely unknown to me, and the way to go there, even if you did explained some things.
how will I go and actually now I have not wood: means that, I really dont know the way to go there. Probably it is not like nether that there are around to 2-3 known to the rest players, gates. By saying that I have no wood: I died couple of times, and I have no items. A didnt think to store some wood for future use. So, my "E" is empty, and I have no time to play and to go discuver fast the place and the way that I will go there. If you know the path to go there, probably tomorrow I will be online, and if you want, you can show me..

Ok, lets get this straight.  You don't have many items so you would be unable to search for it yourself. So you would like someone to show you where it lays. I predict about 20 max people know where one is but i heard there is two in the world. Also what your asking is that someone show you where it is, but if you have no items then the end is completely unimportant to you unless you are despite to get some endstone (which i will happily sell some to you).

So for you, you don't really have much need for the end world and if you went there would achieve not much apart from mining some endstone and maybe some obsidian.

I didnt say that, because I was in the stage to: learn what is END world.
The whole week, I didnt have internet, and on my last log in, I got killed and left with no items.
I was just curious about the place.Now, I know, and I did what ouch told. I just mined with a stone pix some blocks.

Also, the ender dragon drops a lot of Experience Points

You can easily get up to level 110 if you grab all the exp by yourself.

I am not sure if I am gonna try, because the gates to get there are too far from my house. If I get to END, that I have been once, its so confusing, and I am afraid to get there and to be killed.. Do you know how far it is? So wasting of my time..
