What is how to make obsidian in minecraft?

To make obsidian in Minecraft, you need the following:

  1. Water and Lava: Obsidian is created when water flows onto a source block of lava, or when lava flows onto a stationary water source block. It's important to note that flowing water onto flowing lava will not create obsidian, it will create cobblestone. Likewise, flowing lava onto flowing water will create stone.

  2. Diamond Pickaxe: Obsidian can only be mined with a diamond%20pickaxe or a netherite pickaxe. It takes 9.4 seconds to mine obsidian with a diamond pickaxe, or 7.05 seconds with a netherite pickaxe. Without these, you won't be able to obtain the obsidian blocks.

  3. Method: There are a few ways to create the situation for obsidian generation:

    • Pour water onto lava: Find a pool of lava (underground or on the surface in certain biomes) and pour water onto it.
    • Pour lava onto water: Dig a hole and create a water source block in it. Pour lava into the water. This works best if the water is stationary.
    • Lava bucket and water bucket: You can carry lava and water in buckets. Use them to create the necessary flow.

Once the obsidian is formed, use your diamond or netherite pickaxe to mine it.
