Over Ravine

A canyon in a plains biome.

A canyon[1] is a deep, long crack generating in the Overworld that can connect with caves. They often appear deep underground but can breach the surface.

Structure[]

Canyons are usually between 85 to 127 blocks in length, and typically less than 15 blocks wide. In Java Edition canyons are usually 27 to 62 blocks in depth. Canyons in Bedrock Edition can sometimes go all the way down to bedrock, causing canyons spawning in mountain biomes to appear deeper.

A canyon extending down to bedrock causes lava to generate at the bottom. Obsidian often forms at the bottom as water sources flow down into the lava.

Canyons can have small ledges along the top. They can be found at levels 10 to 72, sometimes appearing on the world surface or underwater, forming canyons. They can go deep underground, sometimes spawning slimes or exposing diamond ore. If they reach deep enough, they may also be floored by the lava lakes at level -55. Canyons can cut from surface level all the way down to bedrock, especially noticeable in the Amplified world type.

Water-filled can also be found in any ocean biome.

Canyons can connect to caves, dungeons, abandoned mineshafts, and any other generated structures. Due to the large surface area of their walls, canyons often have water and/or lava flowing down them (from springs in the walls, aquifers, or openings to the sea). A canyon that intersects a river, frozen river, or swamp is filled with stone under the body of water.

Lava oceans[]

Lava Ravine

A lava ocean inside of a canyon.

Similarly to how water oceans replace all air blocks below a certain altitude on the surface, when deep enough in a canyon, all blocks that would generate as air instead generate as lava.

'''Raw iron''' is a raw metal resource obtained from mining [[iron ore]].

== Obtaining ==
=== Mining ===
[[Iron ore]] and [[deepslate iron ore]] mined with a [[stone pickaxe]] or higher drops 1 unit of raw iron. If the pickaxe is enchanted with [[Fortune]], it can drop an extra unit per level of Fortune, allowing for a maximum of 4 with Fortune III. If the ore is mined using a pickaxe enchanted with [[Silk Touch]], it drops the ore block instead.

=== Crafting ===

A '''trident''' is a [[weapon]] used in both melee and ranged combat and is a rare drop from [[drowned]].

==Obtaining==
Tridents are not craftable. A trident can be obtained only when dropped by a [[drowned]], Converted drowned are never equipped with tridents. 

===Mob loot===

==== '''''Java Edition''''' ====
6.25% (or 1 in 16) of [[Drowned]] in Java Edition spawn with a trident of random durability as their natural weapon. They have an 8.5% chance to drop their trident when killed by a player. The chance is increased by 1% for each level of [[Looting]] up to a max of 11.5% with Looting III. This means the overall chance of obtaining a trident from any given drowned is 0.53125% (about 1 in 188) or 0.71875% (about 1 in 140) with looting III.

{{IN|Java}}, a trident held by a drowned has a chance to be enchanted, but the trident's enchantments have no effects for drowned.<ref>{{bug|MC-127321}}</ref>

==== '''''Bedrock Edition''''' ====
Only 15% (or 3 in 20) of [[Drowned]] in Bedrock Edition spawn with tridents. Of these, they have a 25% chance to drop their trident when killed by a player. This chance is increased by 4% for each level of looting up to a max of 37% with looting III. This means the overall chance of obtaining a trident from any given drowned is 3.75% (or 3 in 80) or 5.55% with looting III.

===Thrown tridents===
Tridents thrown onto the ground by a player can be picked up; however, tridents thrown by [[drowned]] cannot be picked up, similar to arrows shot by [[skeleton]]s, [[stray]]s, and [[pillager]]s. Only the owner of a trident thrown in Creative mode or enchanted with Loyalty can pick it up; other players in Creative and players in Survival mode including its own owner can't pick up the trident thrown in Creative.

===Trading===
Drowned who are holding tridents will sometimes drop their trident at full durability if given a nautilus shell when they aren't attacking anything.{{only|BE}}

==Usage==

===Drowned===
{{main|Drowned}}
15% of drowned {{in|bedrock}}, and 6.25% {{in|java}}, spawn with a trident as its natural weapon. It throws the trident at its opponent every 1.5 seconds, dealing {{hp|9}} [[damage]] in normal difficulty. A drowned can throw unlimited tridents, and these tridents cannot be picked up by the [[player]].

A [[villager]] can be turned into a [[zombie villager]] if it is killed by a trident thrown by a drowned: the chance of conversion is 0% on Easy [[difficulty]], 50% on Normal, and 100% on Hard and [[Hardcore]].

{{IN|bedrock}}, a drowned can use the trident's melee attack if its target is within three blocks. The melee attack deals {{hp|9}} damage.

===Melee attack===

Pressing {{control|attack}} while holding a trident deals damage to both [[mob]]s and players. Tridents deal {{hp|9}} melee damage. A successful hit consumes durability of the trident.

===Ranged attack===
[[File:Steve aiming with Trident.png|150px]] [[File:Alex aiming with Trident.png|150px]]

Pressing and holding {{control|use}} while holding a trident charges it. When released at full charge, the trident is thrown and deals damage to any [[entity]] it hits. It flies on a ballistic trajectory similar to that of an [[arrow]], but at 80% strength. If the trident hits a block, it sticks to the block. If it hits an entity, it bounces off the entity and lands nearby. It is also blocked by [[shield]]s and can be retrieved once it lands in the ground. Thrown tridents can trigger wooden [[button]]s, wooden [[pressure plate]]s, and [[target]] blocks. A trident can be thrown at a [[chorus flower]] or [[pointed dripstone]] to break it, which causes the block to be dropped as its respective item.

{{IN|bedrock}} and [[Java Edition Combat Test 4]], tridents can be shot by [[dispenser]]s regardless of enchantment.

Tridents [[Enchanting#Summary_of_enchantments_by_item|enchanted]] with [[Loyalty]] return to the thrower after hitting an entity{{only|java}}/hitting and bouncing off an entity then hitting a block{{only|bedrock}}<ref>{{bug|MCPE-51726}}</ref> or just a block. A Loyalty-enchanted trident fired from a [[dispenser]] just sticks to the block it strikes. Higher levels of enchantment result in shorter recovery times. {{IN|java}}, throwing a trident enchanted with Loyalty into the [[void]] destroys it,<ref>{{bug|MC-125755|||WAI}}</ref> while {{in|bedrock}} it automatically returns to the player. Tridents (if enchanted with Loyalty), can take [[fire]] damage but still return to the player if thrown in [[lava]]. This is especially helpful in [[the Nether]] should the [[player]] be using a trident instead of a [[bow]]. If a trident enchanted with Loyalty attempts to return to a player with no available inventory space, the trident floats near the player until inventory space becomes available.

Thrown tridents take 1 durability damage, regardless of whether it hit an entity or not. Tridents with 1 durability remaining cannot be thrown.

Tridents enchanted with [[Riptide]] launch the player a certain distance when thrown, with the distance increasing for higher enchantment levels. They can be thrown only if the player is standing in [[water]], or if it is raining on the block they are standing on. If the player charges it but walks into a nearby dry area, the charge is canceled. If the player throws a Riptide trident and collides with a mob, the mob takes melee damage (including critical damage if the player is falling). {{IN|java}} tridents enchanted with Riptide take one durability damage upon throwing, and lose an additional 1 durability if it collides with an entity on both editions. Each level of Riptide increases the distance traveled by six blocks. The enchantment at level one launches the player nine blocks, fifteen blocks at level two, and twenty-one blocks at level three.

Tridents enchanted with [[Channeling]] summon a lightning bolt if there is a thunderstorm, although only upon hitting a mob or player standing in the rain as well as a [[Lightning Rod|lightning rod]] placed in the rain.

Unlike other projectiles, the trident does not slow down when thrown through water or lava.

{{IN|java}}, the [[Impaling]] enchantment affects ''all water mobs''. {{IN|bedrock}}, it deals extra damage to [[player]]s and mobs in water or rain.

Unlike arrows, thrown tridents do not despawn.{{only|bedrock}} Tridents despawn after 60 seconds if they are not picked up.{{only|java}}<ref>{{bug|MC-125817}}</ref>

;Magical damage
Using [[Riptide]], nearby players or mobs are dealt [[Harming|splash damage]] within an 8.25×8.25×4.25 cubical area. It stacks with the [[Impaling]] enchantment and [[Strength]] effect. Critical hits do not increase splash damage, but affect the target. 

{{IN|bedrock}}, thrown tridents can damage the [[ender dragon]] while resting on the bedrock fountain. {{IN|java}}, they act just like arrows — deflected, but burn as if they had [[Flame]].

=== Damage===
Thrown tridents and splashes deal {{hp|8}} damage. The damage remains the same regardless of the trident's speed. It has a faster charging speed than a [[bow]] or [[crossbow]] (barring the [[Quick Charge]] enchantment.)

====Java Edition====

{{IN|java}}, tridents have an attack speed of 1.1 and take ~0.91 seconds to [[Damage#Attack cooldown|recover]].

===Elytra===
A trident with the [[Riptide]] enchantment can be used to propel a player with a pair of [[elytra]], but only in [[rain]]y weather, during snowy weather in certain biomes<ref>{{bug|MC-128169}}</ref> or while the [[player]] is in a body of water. A Riptide trident can boost the player to speeds as high as 125 blocks per second,<ref>{{bug|MC-147173||Using riptide tridents while elytra flying can boost the player to excessive speeds}}</ref> much faster than the 33.5 blocks-per-second speed achievable using [[firework rocket]]s.

===Impaling damage ===

{{IN|java}}, the [[Impaling]] enchantment deals extra damage to all water mobs. {{IN|bedrock}} and in [[Java Edition Combat Test 3]], it deals extra damage to all players and mobs in water or rain.

===Repairing ===
Tridents have the same [[durability]] as an [[sword|iron sword]]. Whenever a trident deals damage, its durability decreases by 1.

Tridents can be repaired by:
*combining two damaged tridents in a [[grindstone]], or on a [[crafting table]] or the 2×2 inventory grid, which removes any enchantments except for [[Curse of Vanishing]] and [[Curse of Binding]]
*combining a damaged trident with another trident on an [[anvil]], which preserves enchantments.
*applying the [[Mending]] enchantment.

==Trivia==
* If a player throws a Loyalty-enchanted trident and the player's inventory subsequently fills, the trident hovers around or through the player's skin until an inventory slot opens, which it fills immediately. Multiple tridents can be 'queued' to re-enter the player's inventory in this manner.
*{{IN|java}} in Creative mode, sword enchantments can be applied to tridents. This includes Sharpness, Fire Aspect, and Looting. Sharpness, Smite, and Bane of Arthropods increases their damage against their specific mobs, as well.{{more info needed|Does the damage also increase when the trident is thrown?}}
*Thrown tridents pass through [[Nether Portal (block)|nether portal block]]s without being transported to [[the Nether]] or the [[Overworld]].
*Using a trident enchanted with Riptide while riding an entity cancels the charge and does nothing.

A '''brush''' is a [[tool]] used in [[archaeology]] to excavate [[suspicious block]]s for different items.

|type=Tool
}}

==Usage==
{{Main|Suspicious Block}}
{{Control|Using}} the brush on any block displays a brushing animation, slowing down the player and creating breaking [[particles]], but not actually damaging the block or brush. When continuously brushing a [[suspicious block]], a random item slowly emerges from it until it drops out, and the block turns into regular [[sand]] or regular [[gravel]], depleting 1 [[durability]] point on the brush. It takes 96 [[game tick]]s (4.8 seconds) to brush a single suspicious block. 

=== Enchantments ===
A brush can receive the following [[enchantment]]s:

A '''sign''' is a non-solid [[block]] that displays text and can be placed on the top or side of other blocks. A '''hanging sign''' is a decorative block that also displays text, and can be placed underneath blocks or with a solid self-supporting bracket. The text of both types of signs can be customized with [[dye]]s and [[glow ink sac]]s.

== Obtaining ==
=== Breaking ===
Signs can be broken with any tool or without a tool, but an [[axe]] is fastest.
{{breaking row|horizontal=1|Sign|sprite=oak-sign|Axe|foot=1|item=1}}

A sign or a hanging sign also breaks and drops itself as an [[item]] if the block the sign is attached to is moved, removed or destroyed. However, a wall hanging sign will stay here if the block the hanging sign is attached to is removed.<ref>{{bug|MC-256501|||WAI}}</ref>

If a sign is broken while being edited, the player continues to edit the sign<ref>{{bug|MC-117815}}</ref>, although {{in|bedrock}} breaking the sign stops the editing operation.

=== Natural generation ===
An oak sign can be found in [[igloo]] basements. Spruce signs can be found in taiga [[village]] houses, as part of a chair.

=== Chest loot ===
{{LootChestItem|oak-sign,oak-hanging-sign,spruce-sign,spruce-hanging-sign}}

=== Crafting ===
[[The player]] can place six stripped [[log]] [[block]]s at the bottom half of the crafting table and place two [[chain]]s on the top-left and top-right slots to create hanging signs. This crafting recipe will create six hanging signs. Hanging signs can only be crafted with stripped logs or [[stem]]s; non-stripped wood cannot be used to craft hanging signs.

== Usage ==
Signs can be used to display text; they can be used to label storage, display information to other players or note areas of interest. Signs are also not destroyed by [[water]] or [[lava]] and therefore may be used to control the flow of these fluids.

=== Placement ===
==== Signs ====
Signs may be placed on the top or side of other [[block]]s (including semi-solid and non-solid blocks such as [[fence]]s, [[Trapdoor|trapdoors]] and other signs). To place a sign, {{control|use}} a sign [[item]] while pointing at the block the sign should be attached to, enter the desired text (or none), and click the "Done" button or press "escape" on a keyboard (or press × {{in|bedrock}}, {{xbtn|b}} on an Xbox controller, {{psbtn|o}} on a PlayStation controller, or {{nsbutton|B}} on a Nintendo Switch controller. Closing the virtual keyboard on a mobile device also exits the typing menu). To place a sign on a block that can be interacted with by the {{control|use}} control (for example, [[chest]]s, [[note block]]s, etc.), {{control|sneak}} while placing the sign.

Signs on the top of a block stand on a short post and face toward the player who placed it, in any of 16 different directions. Signs placed on the side of a block simply float there, even if the block doesn't make contact with the sign.

Even if placed on a vertical surface, a sign may not co-exist in the same block of air as any other item, despite not necessarily visibly obstructing eachother.

For more information about the blocks signs can be placed on, see [[Opacity/Placement]].

==== Hanging signs ====
Hanging signs can be placed in three different ways:
* Placing a hanging sign on the side of a block will result in it being placed with a self-supporting bracket, which allows it to float without any supporting block. This version can be placed in four different directions.
* Placing a hanging sign on the bottom of a block will result in the sign hanging below the block.
** If the block is wide enough, the chains holding the sign will be parallel. This version can be placed in four different directions.
** If the block is too narrow, the chains will meet together in a upwards arrow shape. This version is also placed if the player is {{control|sneaking}} when placing a hanging sign below a wide-enough block. This version can be placed in sixteen different directions.

=== Text ===
[[File:Oak Sign GUI.png|thumb|240px|Oak Sign editing.]]
Placing a sign opens an editor interface resembling a magnified view of the sign. Up to four lines of text can then be entered using a keyboard (hardware or on-screen). The editor supports limited editing, including moving the cursor and inserting and deleting characters. {{IN|bedrock}}, [[formatting codes]] can also be used to apply decorative effects such as color, bold, italic and underline to various bits of the text. Depending on the edition and platform in use, copy and paste operations may be supported and the editor may also support keyboard entry of Alt-codes for displaying Unicode characters.


Text can be added to the back side of a sign by interacting with the that side of the sign after placing it and editing the front.

Signs can be waxed by {{Control|use|text=using}} a [[honeycomb]] on it. Once waxed, a sign cannot be unwaxed or edited.

After placing and affixing text on a sign, a player can change the text color by {{control|using}} a [[dye]] on it. When colored with dye, the text color may differ from any color specified by formatting codes.{{Info needed|How does this work? Does the dye affect all the text? One line? One word? Does dye override all formatting codes, including font effects?}}

[[File:Glow Ink Sign with Orange Dye JE2.png|thumb|216px|Oak sign with glow ink and orange dye applied in {{JE}}.]]

A player can {{control|use}} a [[glow ink sac]] on a sign to make its text glow. The glowing text is not affected by lighting. The player can use a regular black [[ink sac]] on the sign to remove the glowing effect.

In [[Creative]] mode, the combination {{key|Ctrl}} + {{control|pick block}} on Windows/Linux, or {{key|cmd}} + {{control|pick block}} on macOS, can be used to copy an already-placed sign, including its text (with decorations), into the player's inventory.

A dyed sign facing east or west will have its text appear more saturated and bright than a sign facing north or south. However, it is actually the sign that is dimmer, because ''Minecraft'''s lighting engine uses side lighting to make the world appear less flat, but the text on signs is not affected by this.

{{IN|bedrock}}, inappropriate words or phrases in a sign's text are displayed as asterisks.

{{IN|java}}, signs can be created with [[Commands#Raw JSON Text|JSON text]], which allows complex formatting (colors, bold, italic, etc.), hover and click events, localized translation (for ''Minecraft'' technical terms, like "Redstone Repeater", otherwise translations must be provided in language files in resource packs), and the incorporation of scoreboard values into text. Use the {{cmd|data merge block}} command to create or alter JSON signs.

: Example: {{cmd|long=1|data merge block ~ ~1 ~ <nowiki>{front_text:{ color:"green", messages:[ '{"selector":"@p", "bold":false, "italic":false, "underlined":false, "strikethrough":false, "obfuscated":false}' , '{"text":"Second Line"}']}}}}

Signs can post the success count of JSON text hover and click events to [[scoreboard]] objectives. The objectives to be used can be specified by running the {{cmd|execute store}} command or by modifying the sign's NBT data directly with the {{cmd|data merge block}} command.

=== Interaction ===
Signs act as though they have a {{control|use}} action, so the [[player]] is unable to place [[block]]s or use [[item]]s while the cursor is pointed at them without {{control|sneaking}}.

Signs are destroyed and drop as an item when pushed by a [[piston]].{{Only|bedrock}}

Signs are non-solid and have no collision, so [[item]]s and [[mob]]s can move through sign blocks. Other [[block]]s (including other signs) can be placed on any edge of a sign.

[[Water]] and [[lava]] flow around signs. Lava can create [[fire]] in [[air]] blocks next to signs as if the signs were flammable, but the signs do not burn (and cannot be burned by other methods either, except {{in|be}}).

=== Fuel ===
Wooden signs can be used as a fuel in [[furnace]]s, smelting an [[item]] per sign.

=== Note Blocks ===
Signs can be placed under [[note block]]s to produce a "bass" sounds.

The '''sword''' is a melee [[weapon]] that is mainly used to deal [[damage]] to [[entity|entities]] or for breaking certain blocks faster than by hand. A sword is made from one of six materials, in order of increasing quality and expense: wood, gold, stone, iron, diamond and netherite.

==== Unit repair ====
{{main|Anvil mechanics#Unit repair}}
{{/Repairing with Anvils}}
A sword can be repaired in an [[anvil]] by adding units of the [[tiers]]' repair material, with each repair material restoring 25% of the sword's maximum durability, rounded down.

=== Mob loot ===
{{Main|Drops#Equipped items}}

Some [[mobs]] can spawn with a sword and have an 8.5% chance of dropping them upon death caused by player. This chance is increased by 1% per level of [[Looting]], up to a maximum of 11.5% with Looting III. [[Zombie]]s and [[husk]]s can drop iron swords, [[zombified piglin]]s and [[piglin]]s can drop golden swords, and [[wither skeleton]]s can drop stone swords. The dropped sword is usually badly damaged and may be enchanted. Stone swords dropped by wither skeletons are never enchanted.

A [[vex]] wields an iron sword that normally has a 0% chance of dropping, because their main hand's <code>HandDropChances</code> is 0. However, this chance increases by 1 percentage point per level of Looting. It is never damaged{{only|java}} and may be enchanted.

{{IN|be}}, [[pillager]]s and [[vindicator]]s that spawn from raids have a 4.1% chance (5.12% chance on hard mode) of dropping a damaged iron sword. This sword has a 50% chance of being enchanted.

=== Trading ===
[[File:Weaponsmith Diamond Sword Trade.png|thumb|right|The diamond sword trade of a weaponsmith.]]

{{IN|bedrock}}, an apprentice-level weaponsmith villagers sells enchanted iron swords for at least 7-21 emeralds, and a master-level weaponsmith sells enchanted diamond swords for at least 13-27 emeralds.

{{IN|java}}, a novice-level weaponsmith villager has a {{frac|2|3}} chance of selling an enchanted iron sword for at least 7-22 emeralds. A master-level weaponsmith offers to sell an enchanted diamond sword for at least 11–27 emeralds.

The enchantments of the swords offered by villagers are the same as the ones obtained from an [[enchantment table]] at levels 5–19.

=== Chest loot ===

== Usage ==
=== Attacking ===
Pressing {{control|attack}} while holding a sword inflicts damage on both mobs and other players. Upon damaging a mob or player, the sword's [[Item Durability|durability]] decreases by 1.

Attacking a [[boat]] or a [[minecart]] with a sword stone tier or higher instantly destroys it {{only|java}}, without decreasing the sword's durability. Otherwise, it requires 2 hits, with neither decreasing durability.

==== Sweeping ====
{{exclusive|Java|section=1}}
If the attack recharge meter is 84.8% or above and the player is on the ground standing or moving slower than the [[sprinting]] speed in a straight line, the sword performs a sweeping attack indicated by a gale [[particle]] that reaches nearby enemies for {{hp|1}} and knocks them back; the amount of knockback is 80% that of the basal knockback and does not benefit from the [[knockback]] enchantment. As result, the player can perform a sweep attack while they are sprinting diagonally but it is impossible to perform a sweep attack at the same time as a critical hit or while riding some [[entity]]. All enemies within an 1 by 0.25 by 1 block area of any part of the attacked mob and whose feet are 3 or less blocks away from player's feet are affected. The [[sweeping edge]] enchantment increases the damage dealt by 50% of the normal hit damage for level I, 67% for level II and 75% for level III.

=== Damage ===
{{Main|Damage}}

==== Java Edition ====
Swords have an attack speed of 1.6 and take 0.625 seconds to [[Damage#Attack cooldown|recover]].

The most amount of damage that a sword enchanted with [[Sharpness]] V can do is 11 {{in|java}} and 15.25 {{in|bedrock}}, without critical hits.

=== Sword breaking times ===
{{main|Breaking}}

A sword can also be used to destroy certain blocks 50% quicker, sometimes much quicker than with fists. Using a sword to destroy any block that doesn't break instantly by hand decreases its durability by 2; this includes bamboo, despite that the sword is the fastest tool for breaking it.<ref>{{bug|MC-195168||Swords consume double durability than they normally would when destroying bamboo saplings, bamboo, or cobwebs}}</ref>

If a sword is enchanted with [[Silk Touch]], either using [[Creative]] or [[commands]], cobwebs the sword destroys will drop the cobwebs themselves instead of the usual string. This is due to the sword being classified as the proper tool for cobwebs.

The following table shows the time it takes to break blocks on which swords have any effect. Colors indicate what gets dropped:
* White: an original block.
* Blue: block's normal drop (e.g. seeds, sapling, apple).
* Red: nothing.

==== Safety around constructions ====
In Creative mode, swords are unable to break blocks. However, care must still be taken around [[minecart]]s, [[painting]]s, [[item frame]]s,{{only|java}} and [[armor stand]]s; these are entities, thus can be broken with swords in Creative.<ref>{{bug|MC-27140}}</ref><ref>{{bug|MC-18463}}</ref>

=== Enchantments ===
Swords can receive, gathered from mob drops/villager trades or be found in various loot chests (example: End City, Bastion Remnant)with the following [[enchantment]]s:

{{main|Blocking}}
[[File:Parrying.png|thumb|right|The blocking animation using a sword before and after [[Java Edition 14w30a]] (from the [[Adventure Update|Adventure]] to the [[Bountiful Update|Bountiful]] updates).]]
 
Previously, since the [[Adventure Update]], all types of swords could be used to parry to block some forms of damage. If the player is blocking with a sword when attacked, the sword deflects 50% of incoming damage from melee, non-magical projectiles like arrows, and explosions, along with minimizing airborne knockback. The sword is held in front of the player and its durability is not reduced by blocking. The player moves at a slower rate than [[sneaking]] if blocking with a sword. Sword blocks could be engaged and disengaged instantly, with no delay between the input and damage mitigation nor cooldown between lowering a block and raising a new one.
 
After the [[Combat Update]], the sword blocking functionality was replaced by blocking with [[shield]]s and to accommodate the [[dual wield]] system. Shields negate more damage and knockback than sword blocking from "blockable" attacks (they block 100% damage and knockback after [[Java Edition 1.11]]), but, unlike swords, they lose durability, have a 0.25 second startup period before damage can be mitigated and can be temporarily disabled by attacks with an [[axe]].

=== Knockback ===
The knockback dealt by swords used to be higher than while the players are using another melee [[item]]s, like an axe or with the hands. This feature was removed in [[Java Edition 1.9]] and is also no longer used in ''[[Bedrock Edition]]''.

== Trivia ==
*The sword's traditional [[texture]] came from [[Notch]]'s abandoned RPG, ''[[Legend of the Chambered]]''. The iron sword's texture was created first, as it was from the game, and the other swords followed.
*In ''Java Edition'', with the introduction of netherite swords, it is possible to one-hit kill undead [[mob]]s in the game (except [[wither]]s and [[zombie]]s/[[skeleton]]s with random armor) using a sword with the [[Smite]] V enchantment, without the need to perform a critical hit (this was previously possible only with a [[Smite]] V stone, iron, or diamond axe).
*Plastic diamond and enchanted swords are official ''[[Minecraft]]'' merchandise.<ref>https://shop.minecraft.net/products/minecraft-sword?_pos=1&_psq=sword&_ss=e&_v=1.0</ref><ref>https://shop.minecraft.net/products/minecraft-enchanted-purple-sword?_pos=4&_psq=sword&_ss=e&_v=1.0</ref>
*In the game [[wikipedia:Transformice|''Transformice'']], a diamond sword can be found in the shop.

'''Fire charges''' are items that can be {{control|used}} as a single-use version of a [[flint and steel]] or shot as a [[small fireball]] from a [[dispenser]].

== Obtaining ==
=== Chest loot ===
{{LootChestItem|fire-charge}}

=== Crafting ===
{{Crafting
|Blaze Powder
|Coal; Charcoal
|Gunpowder
|Output= Fire Charge, 3
|type= Miscellaneous
}}

=== Bartering ===
[[Piglin]]s may [[barter]] 1 fire charge when given a [[gold ingot]].

== Usage ==
[[File:Natural Fire Charge.png|200px|thumb|Dispensing Fire Charge]]

Fire charges can be used as ammunition for [[dispenser]]s, or as a substitute for [[flint and steel]].

When used, it instantly places a [[fire]], similar to flint and steel. The fire charge is consumed in the process. It can prime [[TNT]], light [[Nether portal|nether portals]], [[Campfire|campfires]], [[Candle|candles]], [[Cake|cakes with candles]] and [[creeper]]s{{only|JE}} like flint and steel.

When a fire charge is fired from a dispenser, it shoots a [[small fireball]].

A '''fishing rod''' is a [[tool]] that casts a bobber used to [[Fishing|fish]] in [[water]] or to hook and pull [[Mob|mobs]], [[Item (entity)|items]] and some [[Entity|entities]] towards the user.

== Obtaining ==

|Output= Fishing Rod
|description= The durability of the two fishing rods is added together, plus an extra 5% durability.
|type= Tool
}}

=== Fishing ===

Enchanted fishing rods can be obtained as "treasure" [[item]]s from [[fishing]], and unenchanted ones as "junk" items.

=== Trading ===

Journeyman-level [[fisherman]] [[villager]]s sell enchanted fishing rods for 6 [[emerald]]s.
The [[enchantment]]s are the same as the ones obtained from an [[enchantment table]] at levels 5–19.

=== Chest loot ===
{{LootChestItem|enchanted-fishing-rod}} 
{{notelist}}

=== Carrot/warped fungus on a stick ===

If a [[carrot on a stick]] or a [[warped fungus on a stick]] is used to the point of zero durability, it becomes a fishing rod again.

=== Mob loot ===

{{IN|java}}, the [[drowned]] mob has a 3.75% chance of spawning with a fishing rod equipped.
{{IN|bedrock}}, naturally-spawned drowned has 0.85% chance to spawn with fishing rod, while converted drowned has 1% chance to spawn with it.
If killed, they have an 8.5% chance of dropping this fishing rod. That chance increases by 1% for each level of Looting applied to a weapon (up to 11.5% chance). The dropped item is damaged and never enchanted.

== Usage ==

=== Fishing ===
{{main|Fishing}}

Fishing rods can be cast into water. After a short period of time, a stream of bubble particles approaches the fishing rod. If the rod is reeled in once the particles "bite" the bobber, the player obtains a fish, junk, or possibly a treasure item. If the fishing rod was in the player's hand and is no longer, the fishing bobber [[Entity|entity]] despawns, unless the fishing rod to the off-hand or it's been swapped with another fishing rod{{Cn|Cn=Research on the way fishing rods behave when you swap rod or have two equipped (one in the main and one in the off hand) needs to be done}}.

=== Crafting ingredient ===

{{crafting usage|Fishing Rod, Damaged Fishing Rod}}

=== Hooking mobs and other entities ===
{{see also|Fishing#Fishing rod durability}}

The fishing rod can be used to hook [[mobs]], [[Item (entity)|items]]{{only|java}} and some [[entities]], and even [[player]]s. The fishing rod can then be reeled in, dragging the hooked object toward the player without dealing damage. Reeling in a [[mob]] or entity costs 5 points of durability, and reeling in an item costs 3 points. Reeling a mob pulls it toward the player with a speed of {{frac|1|10}} the distance between mob and player.

Besides mobs and items, entities that can be reeled in include: 
* {{ItemLink|id=oak boat|Boat}}s
* {{ItemLink|id=oak boat with chest|Boat with Chest}}s
* {{ItemSprite|Minecart}} [[Minecart]]s of any type
* {{ItemLink|Armor Stand}}s
* {{EntityLink|Shulker Bullet}}s
* {{EntityLink|Fireball}}s
* {{EntityLink|Small fireball}}s
* {{EntitySprite|TNT}} Primed [[TNT]]
* Any [[falling block]] such as {{EntityLink|Sand}}, {{EntityLink|Gravel}}, {{EntityLink|Dragon Egg}}s, {{EntityLink|Concrete Powder}}s, {{EntityLink|Scaffolding}},  [[Snow]] on [[Bedrock Edition]] or {{EntityLink|Anvil}}s

Some entities can be hooked, but cannot be reeled in: 
* {{EntitySprite|Horse}} Mobs riding/being ridden by other mobs (in Bedrock Edition, the hooked mob dismounts)
* {{EntityLink|Painting}}s
* {{EntityLink|Item Frame}}s
* {{EntityLink|id=leash-knot|Lead}} knots
* {{EntityLink|End Crystal}}s
* {{EntityLink|Shulker}}s

Attempting to reel in said entities still costs durability to the rod.

The rest of the entities cannot be hooked at all: 

* {{EntitySprite|egg}} Thrown [[egg]]s
* {{EntitySprite|snowball}} Thrown [[snowball]]s
* {{EntitySprite|ender-pearl}} Thrown [[ender pearl]]s
* {{EntitySprite|eye-of-ender}} Thrown [[eyes of ender]]
* {{ItemSprite|splash-potion}} Thrown [[potion]]s
* {{ItemSprite|bottle-o'-enchanting|附魔之瓶}} Thrown [[bottles o' enchanting]]
* {{EntitySprite|dragon-fireball}} [[Dragon fireball]]s
* {{EntitySprite|Wither Skull}} [[Wither#Wither Skull|Wither skull]]s
* {{ItemSprite|firework-rocket}} [[Firework rocket]]s in flight
* {{EntitySprite|arrow}} [[Arrow]]s in flight
* {{EffectSprite|particle-speed}} [[Lingering Potion#Area effect cloud|Area effect cloud]]
* {{EntityLink|id=experience-orb|Experience|XP orbs}}

Using it on a [[villager]] lowers the player's popularity and causes any naturally-spawned [[iron golem]]s nearby to attack.

=== Fuel ===

A fishing rod can be used as fuel in [[furnace]]s, smelting 1.5 items per fishing rod.

=== Other usage ===

The hook can also be used to activate wooden [[pressure plate]]s or [[weighted pressure plate]]s.

=== Enchantments ===

A fishing rod can receive the following enchantments:
{| class="wikitable col-2-center"
|+
!Name
!Max Level
![[Enchanting|Method]]
|-
|[[Lure]]<ref group="note">Lure levels above V don't work.</ref>
|III
|{{Inventory slot|Enchanting Table}}{{Inventory slot|Anvil}}
|-
|[[Luck of the Sea]]

|-
|[[Mending]]
|I
|{{Inventory slot|Anvil}}
|-
|[[Curse of Vanishing]]
|I
|{{Inventory slot|Anvil}}
|}
{{Notelist|note}}

A fishing rod with the [[Mending]] enchantment has infinite durability if used for fishing only. The rod incrementally repairs itself using the experience gained each time a player reels in a fish, even if starting from nearly 0% durability. Players wearing damaged [[Mending]] armor have a lower average rate of repair, because the mending mechanic can ignore damage to the rod while repairing armor instead. [[Unbreaking]] III can nearly guarantee that the rod does not break, unless it's already at low durability.

== Trivia ==
*The maximum distance the [[player]] can get between the bobber and themselves is 33 blocks.
*[[Skeleton]]s can be pulled into their own [[arrow]]s.
*When casting the rod into a [[portal]], the bobber may stick to it like a normal [[block]], go through and travel in [[the Nether]], or stop on the next block behind the portal.
*If the player stands directly in front of a column and casts the line onto a block above the player, the line falls downward.
*If the bobber hits a [[painting]], the painting breaks.
*The player can get into [[bed]] after casting a line, and the line remains in the water until the player wakes up and reels it in.

'''Charcoal''' is an [[item]] obtained by smelting [[log]]s or [[wood]]. It is used as fuel, or for crafting [[torch]]es and [[campfire]]s. Unlike [[coal]], charcoal cannot be traded with [[villager]]s, nor can it be crafted into a [[block of coal]]. Coal and charcoal also cannot stack together. It can be used as a substitute for coal, as both charcoal and coal have an equivalent duration when smelted.

== Obtaining == 

=== Breaking ===

A [[campfire]] broken without the [[Silk Touch]] enchantment drops 2 charcoal.

=== Fuel ===

When used in a [[furnace]] as a fuel, a piece of charcoal lasts 80 seconds (smelting up to 8 items), the same as coal. Charcoal used as fuel lasts more than 5 times longer than [[wood planks]] or [[wood]] logs used as fuel, being more efficient than any other use of wood for smelting in ''[[Java Edition]]'', but outstripped by [[wooden slabs]] in Bedrock. 

Coal and charcoal are also the only fuels accepted by [[Minecart with Furnace|furnace minecarts]]. They provide approximately four minutes of transit each.

A '''campfire''' is a block that can be used to cook [[food]], pacify [[bee]]s, act as a spread-proof [[light source]], smoke signal or damaging trap block.

A '''soul campfire''' is a dimmer variant of the campfire with turquoise flames. Soul campfires deal more damage than normal campfires.

== Obtaining ==
=== Breaking ===
Campfires can be mined with any tool, or without a tool, but [[axe]]s are the fastest. A regular campfire drops 2{{only|java|short=1}} or 4{{only|bedrock|short=1}} [[charcoal]], a soul campfire drops [[soul soil]], and either one also drops any items placed on it. If mined with a tool enchanted with [[Silk Touch]], the campfire instead drops itself as an item.

{{IN|BE}}, either kind of campfire can also be broken by pushing it with a [[piston]] or [[sticky piston]]. Pistons cannot move or break campfires {{in|je}}.

{{breaking row

=== Natural generation ===
Campfires can generate in {{BiomeLink|taiga}} and {{BiomeLink|snowy taiga}}{{only|be}} [[village]]s.

Campfires also generate in camps inside [[ancient city|ancient cities]], beneath a pile of blue, light blue and cyan [[wool]] blocks.

=== Trading ===
{{IN|bedrock}}, apprentice-level fisherman [[villager]]s have a 50% chance of selling a campfire for 5 [[emerald]]s.

{{IN|java}}, apprentice-level fisherman villagers have a {{frac|2|3}} chance of selling a campfire for 2 [[emerald]]s.

== Usage ==
Lit campfires emit a light level of 15 and lit soul campfires emit a light level of 10. Unlike [[fire]], campfires do not spread under any circumstances.

Campfires are lit by default when placed. Campfires can be manually lit by {{control|using}} or [[Dispenser|dispensing]] [[flint and steel]] on them, shooting it with a flaming arrow, or using or dispensing fire charges, blaze fireballs, and ghast fireballs when {{cmd|gamerule|mobGriefing}} is true. {{IN|bedrock}}, campfires can also be lit by {{control|using}} an item enchanted with [[fire aspect]], or stepping on it while burning. 

Campfires can be extinguished by [[waterlogging]] it (placing [[water]] in the same block space), throwing a [[splash water bottle]] on it, or {{control|using}} a [[shovel]] on it. {{IN|bedrock}}, campfires can also be extinguished by placing a water source or allowing water to flow in the space above the campfire. As with [[torches]], rain does not extinguish campfires.<ref>{{bug|MC-141920||Rain doesn't put out campfire|Works as Intended}}</ref>

Using [[flint and steel]] on the side of a waterlogged or lit campfire sets the adjacent air block on fire instead.

Any items cooking on a campfire always drop when the campfire block is broken.

=== Particles and smoke signals ===
[[File:Campfire with smoke.gif|thumb|Campfire emitting smoke.]]
Campfires produce smoke particles that float up around 10 blocks before disappearing. If a [[hay bale]] is placed below, the campfire becomes a signal fire and the smoke floats up 24 blocks instead.

Campfire smoke particles can partially pass through a block directly above it, but do not pass through blocks more than one block directly above it.

Although a trap door is thinner than a slab, a trap door can block the smoke completely, preventing the smoke from floating up.

Campfires emit extra smoke particles during rain, similar to [[lava]].

Campfires also emit occasional ember particles, similar to lava. Soul campfires, however, do not emit embers.<ref>{{bug|MC-185482||Soul campfires do not emit ember particles|Works as Intended}}</ref>

=== Damage ===

Campfires damage [[mob]]s standing on top of them even if underwater (with exceptions such as [[shulker]]s, [[zombified piglin]]s or [[guardian]]s), but only if lit. Campfires deal {{hp|1}} and soul campfires deal {{hp|2}} of damage every tick (although [[damage immunity]] reduces this to once every half-second) Campfires do not cause lasting burning or destroy items. Damage taken is considered [[Damage#Fire|fire damage]] and is reduced by [[armor]] (which loses [[Item durability#Armor durability|durability]]), the [[Resistance]] potion effects, and the [[Protection]] and [[Fire Protection]] enchantments. The player can avoid being damaged at all, either by using a [[potion of fire resistance]] or wearing [[Frost Walker]] boots.

Regardless of [[Solid block#Height|height]], all blocks prevent damage done to mobs or players above campfires. The campfire deals damage only to entities occupying its block.

=== Cooking ===
[[File:Campfire (Cooking).gif|thumb]]
The player can place {{tooltip|raw food|raw beef, raw chicken, raw rabbit, raw porkchop, raw mutton, raw cod, raw salmon, potato, kelp}} on a lit campfire by {{control|using}} the food item on it. Up to four food items can be placed on a single campfire, which cooks the items simultaneously. Unlike other blocks that can cook food, campfires do not require any kind of fuel to cook. On a campfire, foods produce small smoke particles, indicating they are being cooked. Food items take 30 seconds (600 [[tick]]s) to cook, compared to 10 seconds for [[furnace]]s or 5 seconds for [[smoker]]s. Assuming that one uses all four slots to cook at once, the Campfire is, therefore, more efficient than furnaces (taking 10 seconds less per four items and no fuel) for cooking, but must be watched so as to pick up the food and refill it once it is done. It is slower than a smoker by about ten seconds, but its lack of fuel consumption could be seen as a worthwhile trade-off. Once finished cooking, items pop off the campfire. If the campfire is extinguished while cooking food, it resets as if it had not been cooked at all. Food items can be placed on an unlit campfire. 

Other items can be placed on campfires using external editors, mods or add-ons.

=== Hoppers ===
Campfires do not have an [[Inventory#External inventories|external inventory]]. Raw food cannot be loaded into the campfire with a [[hopper]].

A hopper placed directly underneath a campfire pulls through any items dropped into the campfire. Any drops from a mob that dies in the campfire get pulled into the hopper.

=== Bees ===
Placing a campfire under a [[beehive]] or [[bee nest]] allows players to harvest [[honey bottle]]s or [[honeycomb]] without provoking the [[bee]]s.
There must be unobstructed air between the campfire and the beehive or bee nest. [[Carpet]]s are an exception.{{only|JE}}

=== Piglins ===
Lit soul campfires repel [[piglin]]s that are not currently attacking. This occurs when the [[piglin]] is within an 8 block radius of the soul campfire.

=== Light source ===
Standard lit campfires emit a light level of 15, while soul campfires emit a light level of 10. Like most other sources of light, campfires melt nearby [[snow]] and [[ice]]. Due to their lower light level, soul campfires do not melt snow or ice.

=== Note blocks ===
Campfires can be placed under [[note block]]s to produce "bass" sounds.

=== Converting soul sand to soul soil ===
Soul campfires can be used to convert [[soul sand]] into [[soul soil]]. If a soul campfire is crafted using soul sand, placed, and then broken without [[Silk Touch]], that soul campfire drops soul soil.<ref>{{bug|MC-178579||Soul campfires can be used to convert soul sand into soul soil|Works as Intended}}</ref>

=== Piston interactivity ===
{{IN|BE}}, pushing a campfire or soul campfire with a [[piston]] or [[sticky piston]] breaks it. Unlike other methods, breaking with a piston drops only one [[charcoal]] instead of two. Campfires cannot be pulled by sticky pistons.

{{IN|JE}}, pistons do not interact with campfires. Campfires neither move nor break when pushed or pulled by pistons.

'''Flint and steel''' is a [[tool]] used to create [[fire]] or to ignite certain blocks, structures and mobs.

=== Chest loot ===

{{LootChestItem|flint-and-steel}}

== Usage ==
=== Igniting ===

When {{control|use|text=used}} on the space above any solid top surface, on any side of any flammable block or any side of any [[obsidian]] block within a valid unlit [[nether portal]] frame regardless of if there is a solid top surface available, the flint and steel places a [[fire]] there.

Flint and steel can be used to light unlit [[campfire]]s, [[candle]]s and [[cake|cakes with candles]].

Flint and steel can be used to light [[nether portal]]s, as any fire existing within an appropriate [[obsidian]] frame will instantly be replaced with [[Nether Portal (block)|nether portal blocks]] that occupy the entirety of the frame.

Using flint and steel on [[TNT]] ignites it. The explosion damage dealt by TNT ignited with flint and steel in this specific way counts as the player's attack. If the player is {{Control|sneak|text=sneaking}} a fire is instead placed on the side of the TNT the flint and steel was used on.

A flint and steel can be used on a [[creeper]] to force it to explode. Explosions initiated in this way cannot be cancelled.

When powered, a [[dispenser]] containing flint and steel can place fires or ignite relevant blocks such as TNT or campfires in the space directly in front of it. This reduces the flint and steel's durability. A dispenser containing a flint and steel cannot detonate creepers.

=== Enchantments ===

Flint and steel can receive the following [[enchantment]]s:

== Trivia ==

* In [[Adventure mode]], flint and steel cannot light fires, nor can it ignite nether portals (unless it has the tag {{cd|CanPlaceOn:obsidian}}). However, it can still ignite TNT and creepers.
* The name "Flint and Steel" may be misleading and is inaccurate considering the game doesn’t have and possibly will have [[Java Edition mentioned features#Steel|steel]] in the game and it's crafted with iron instead. This is similar to the [[Old Growth Taiga|Old Growth Pine Taiga]], as there are no pines in the game and they have [[Spruce|Spruce Trees]] instead.
**In real life, Iron can’t be used as a fire striker, so Mojang had to rename it to Flint and Steel so it makes more sense. This explains why it is called Flint and Steel, but there is no steel in the game.
**Steel was mentioned by Mojang, as a “stronger” iron, but shortly rejected, and there are no currently no plans to add it to the game.
* Flint and steel cannot light end portals.
* Flint and Steel is the first item to mention another item that is not in the game.
*In the April Fools Snapshot, [[Java Edition 23w13a or b]], one of the possible voted was “Flint and Steel can ignite any block”.

'''Leads''' are [[tool]]s used to leash and lead passive and neutral [[animal]]s, [[golem]]s and some [[monster]]s.

== Obtaining ==
=== Chest loot ===
{{LootChestItem|lead}}

=== Crafting ===
{{Crafting
  |A1= String
  |B1= String    
  |A2= String
  |B2= Slimeball
  |C3= String
  |Output= Lead,2
  |type= Tool
}}

=== Mob loot ===
[[Wandering Trader|Wandering trader]]s always spawn with 2 [[llama|trader llama]]s, each held with a lead. When a trader llama is detached, either by killing it or the wandering trader, dragging them far apart, or putting the llama in a [[boat]] or a [[minecart]], the lead drops at the llama's position.

== Usage ==
=== Crafting ingredient ===

{{crafting usage}}

=== Leashing mobs ===
[[File:SuspendedPigs.png|190px|thumb|One block tall mobs, such as pigs, suspend at 7 blocks above the ground.]]
[[File:SuspendedCows.png|190px|thumb|Two block tall mobs, such as cows, also suspend at 7 blocks above the ground.]]

{{control|Using}} a lead on a [[mob]] ties the lead to the mob, allowing it to be moved by the player. Multiple mobs can be held by leads at once, but each mob held requires its own lead.

It is possible to leash the following mobs and other entities:

* {{EntityLink|Zoglin}}
* {{EntityLink|Zombie Horse}}}}

Additionally, [[villager]]s, [[wandering trader]]s, and [[monster]]s other than the ones listed above, can be leashed using a map editor or [[NBT]] editor. 

With a mob on a lead held by the player, {{control|using}} the lead on any type of [[fence]] (or [[wall]]{{only|bedrock|short=1}}) attaches the lead to it with a visible knot, tying the mob to it. To attach it to a wall on Bedrock Edition, the player must hold a lead in the main hand.<ref>{{bug|MCPE-108078}}</ref> Multiple leads may be attached to one fence post. A mob tied to a fence tends to stay within 5 blocks of the fence post.

A lead is broken by pressing the {{control|use item}} control on the mob again, hitting the knot, or removing the attached fence post. Leads also break when hit by projectiles. Whenever a lead is removed or broken, it drops as an [[item (entity)|item]] at the location of the mob. However, it does not drop when unleashed in Creative mode.{{only|java}}<ref>{{bug|MCPE-79639}}</ref> A lead does not break if the attached animal dies.

A lead can stretch a maximum of 10 blocks. If the mob is able to move towards the player or fence post, it does so. If not, or if the mob is moving very quickly away from the player, the lead breaks.

When the player or the knot is more than 7 blocks above the ground, the mob being leashed becomes suspended.

Most mobs that can be leashed can still be leashed even if attacking the player leashing them, and any attached leads do not break.

[[Wolf|Wolves]] cannot be leashed after becoming angry. Despite this, if they become angry while already leashed, the lead does not break, but it cannot be reattached when broken through other methods while the wolf is still angry.

A lead attached to a hoglin breaks if it becomes a [[zoglin]].

A lead does not prevent mobs from despawning if they normally would despawn.

When moving downwards and accelerating towards the ground, leashed mobs accumulate fall damage and take it if they hit the ground while still accelerating. When moving up or decelerating (such as when the lead is stretched to its limit), the fall distance is set to one block and the mob therefore does not take any fall damage if it touches the ground.

If the player walks into and back out of a [[nether portal]] while holding a lead connected to a mob, the lead remains attached to the mob. However, if a mob attached to a lead walks into a nether portal, the lead breaks and drops as an item in the other dimension.

A lead can be used to remove a mob from a boat without needing to break the boat, if the mob can normally be leashed.

If a chunk unloads while containing a leashed mob (either by the player walking too far away, or traveling to another dimension via a portal), the lead breaks and drops as an item, leaving the mob free to wander around.

* The lead is named as "leash" in the texture file.
* If a [[player]] goes to sleep while holding a mob on a lead, the lead remains attached.
* {{IN|Java}}, when using the {{cmd|item}} command to put a lead in a player's head slot, the item gets rotated and positioned in such a way that it looks like the player is wearing a monocle.

beta 1.2.14.2Canyons can now generate underwater.

Issues[]

Issues relating to "Canyon" or "Ravine" are maintained on the bug tracker. Report issues there.

Trivia[]

  • In Bedrock Edition the seed 1669320484, as well as any seed calculated from 4294967296 × n + 1669320484, generates a huge canyon extending endlessly from southwest to northeast at coordinate X=−1269, Z=0, shaped by countless identical connected north-south canyons. There are other lines of canyons parallel to this one, but few of them are visible aboveground or have the canyons connected. This seed also generates parallel lines of endless dungeons underground. As of 1.18, nearly all endless canyons are underground.
  • It is relatively-common to find up to around half a dozen canyons intersecting close even to where they're first found (including vertically, often perpendicularly). So if one finds one, one may find more, soon-enough.
