There are over 150 different types of blocks in Minecraft, and with a myriad of types to choose from, it can be overwhelming to figure out which are the strongest.
In Minecraft, blocks have a certain degree of blast resistance that helps them withstand explosions. This can be useful in preventing creepers from destroying a base, or even for stopping griefers. Here are the top 10 strongest blocks that players should know about.
Top 10 blocks in Minecraft, ranked from strongest to weakest
The blocks mentioned in this list are going to be the strongest in terms of raw blast resistance power. That does not mean these blocks are the most stylish-looking around, although some of them do look really great.
Still, these blocks are strong enough to prevent players from taking extreme damage or having their builds ruined. Here are the top choices that players should use for their builds.
1) Bedrock
Bedrock is a very strong block inside Minecraft. In Survival mode, the block is indestructible without using the bug exploitation. It offers a blast resistance of 3,600,000, which allows players to use bedrock for anything they want to reinforce that they do not want to be broken.
This is useful for preventing players from falling into the void. Due to the indestructible nature of this block, players can also use this when taking on the wither in underground fights.
2) Command Blocks
Players can generate command blocks by using the command "/give @s minecraft:command_block." This generates a block which enables them to input commands into it.
This block offers the same blast resistance as Bedrock (3,600,000), making it very strong in the face of destructive effects.
3) End Gateway
This special End Gateway block cannot be gained through normal means and can be placed in Java Edition using the command "/setblock."
While this block is not easy for players to make use of, it looks great and allows them to have a very strong structure and one that looks cool to boot. It also boasts a staggering 3,600,000 blast resistance.
4) End Portal block
Just as the End Gateway block cannot be placed normally, this block also needs to be placed using the command /setblock.
This can be created by the player by creating a normal End portal, and is another great-looking block which offers the same 3,600,000 blast resistance.
5) End Portal Frame
The End Portal Frame is a strong block with just as much blast resistance as the other End blocks (3,600,000). These blocks occur naturally in Strongholds but players can easily get them placed down inside Minecraft's Creative Mode.
6) Ancient Debris
Players can find this rare block inside the Nether. This ore is one of the main sources of Netherite scraps. Though this block is not as strong as any of the End blocks, it does offer high blast resistance of 1200, which is extremely beneficial for using in builds.
It cannot be burned by fire or lava of any type. Even if the item itself is dropped onto the lava, it will not burn, making it a solid choice for strong builds.
7) Anvil
Players of Minecraft are able to use their anvils for strong blast resistant blocks. These anvils boast a blast resistance capacity of 1200 and can be crafted using three blocks of iron and four iron ingots.
This is not an investment to be taken lightly, as each anvil requires a lot of iron to craft. Nonetheless, it remains a strong block that players can use in their builds.
8) Block of Netherite
Blocks of Netherite can be created in Minecraft by combining nine Netherite ingots. Each one of these blocks can withstand a lot, with a blast resistance stat of 1200. In addition to their great durability, they have a pretty cool color scheme and can be used as a strong but expensive building material for players.
9) Crying Obsidian/Obsidian
Players who want to have an easily accessible block that is very strong should look into obsidian. Created by pouring water onto lava, players can mine this block with a diamond pickaxe and use it for very strong builds. Crying Obsidian can be found in ruined portals and both of these blocks have a high blast resistance of 1200.
10) Enchanting Table
Believe it or not, one of the strongest blocks in Minecraft, as far as durability goes, is the enchanting table. This is likely because of the diamond used in its creation. It boasts a stat of 1200 blast resistance and can shield players if they are behind it. Providing more than just enchanting, this block also offers protection to players as and when needed.
