Blaze Rod

Items

Blaze Rod — item.

Obtaining

Blaze rods come from the blaze entity loot table. A player kill rolls 0–1 rod, and Looting increases the upper bound; the item is therefore a combat drop rather than a crafting-only material.

Data: Obtaining
Entity sourceBlaze
Normal drop0–1 blaze rods
ConditionKilled by a player
LootingIncreases the upper bound

Drops

The blaze loot table has one rod pool guarded by `killed_by_player`. Fire, fall, and other environmental deaths do not use that player-kill pool.

Usage

Blaze rods can be burned as furnace fuel and are the first material link in the brewing progression. The rod itself stacks to 64; blaze powder is the separate brewing fuel item.

Crafting ingredient

A blaze rod turns into two blaze powder, supplies the blaze-rod ingredient for a brewing stand, and combines with popped chorus fruit to craft four end rods.

Data: Crafting ingredient
Powder recipe1 rod → 2 blaze powder
Brewing stand1 rod + 3 stone materials
End rod recipe1 rod + 1 popped chorus fruit → 4 end rods

Combat behavior

The blaze floats and uses a charged ranged attack. Its attack goal starts with a 60-tick charge, launches three small fireballs at six-tick intervals, then waits 100 ticks before the next burst. Water is a vulnerability rather than a safe habitat.
