How Do You Get Flint in Minecraft?
Last updated
Ever wondered how you can gather flint in the blocky world of Minecraft? You’re not alone! Let’s dive right into uncovering the secrets behind snagging some flint for your crafting adventures.
So, you’re on a quest for flint, huh? Well, you’re in the right place to find out exactly how to bag yourself some in the game.
Quick Answer: Mining Gravel Blocks
The fastest way to get flint in Minecraft is by mining gravel blocks. Whenever you whack a gravel block, there’s a chance it’ll drop flint instead of gravel. Pretty cool, right?
Not every gravel block will yield flint; it’s more like a fun game of chance. About 10% of the time, you’ll get flint. But don’t worry, keep mining those gravel blocks, and you’ll soon have enough flint for your needs.
Boost Your Luck with Tools
Want to increase your chances of getting flint? Use a tool enchanted with Fortune. A shovel works best. The higher the level of the Fortune enchantment, the better your chances of getting flint from each gravel block you mine.
Remember, patience is key. Keep mining, and feel free to enchant your tools for an even better flint-harvesting experience.
