This article is about the block that naturally generates on pale oak logs when a creaking is hit. For the joke item used for fletching in 24w14potato, see Toxic Resin.

A resin clump is a block generated by a creaking heart on pale oaks in any biome when a creaking is attacked. It also drops when a creaking heart is mined or destroyed. It can be used to craft decorative blocks of resin, and can also be smelted to produce resin bricks, which in turn can be crafted into the whole resin brick block family.

Obtaining

Resin clump can be instantly mined with any tool, including punching it.

Post-generation

When a creaking is attacked during night-time (between 12600 and 23400 ticks) by a player, a tamed wolf, or a player-caused explosion, its associated creaking heart attempts to place 2 or 3 resin clumps on the sides of pale oak logs, stripped pale oak logs, pale oak wood, and stripped pale oak wood blocks that are connected to the creaking heart and within 2 blocks taxicab distance from it, starting from the closest blocks. There is a 5-second cooldown before hitting a creaking can generate resin clumps again. Attacking a named creaking during the day does not produce resin clumps.

In Java Edition, the time and dimensions (default only Overworld) at which resin can be generated are controlled by the environment attribute gameplay/creaking_active.

Block loot

1-3 resin clumps are dropped when a creaking heart is mined without Silk Touch or destroyed by an explosion. Fortune can increase the maximum drops by 1 per level (up to 6 with Fortune 3).

Generated loot

Resin clumps are found in woodland mansion chests.

History

Java Edition

Java Edition
1.21.4			24w44a				Added resin clumps.
			24w45a				Resin bricks are now used as a smithing material instead of resin clumps. However, resin clumps can still be inserted in a smithing table while resin bricks cannot, causing resin trims to be unobtainable.[2][3]
							The back side of resin clump is now correctly mirrored.
			24w46a				Can now be placed on any full face of a neighboring block.
							Can now be waterlogged.
							Moved position in the Creative inventory.
							Can no longer be placed in a smithing table, fixing the earlier issue.

Bedrock Edition

Bedrock Edition
1.21.50			Preview 1.21.50.25				Added resin clumps.
			Preview 1.21.50.28				Resin bricks are now used as a smithing material instead of resin clumps.
1.21.60			Preview 1.21.60.24				The XP rewarded for smelting resin clumps into resin bricks has been reduced from 0.3 to 0.1.

Trivia

• Prior to the addition of resin to the game, toxic resin was part of the "Poisonous Potato Update" April Fools' earlier the same year. It could be turned into amber gems for use as an armor trim material similar in color to resin bricks.
