Description

Deepslate Tiles are a dark decorative building block crafted from four Deepslate Bricks in a 2×2 grid, producing four tiles. A stonecutter can also turn one Cobbled Deepslate directly into one Deepslate Tile. The compact square pattern gives floors and walls a finer, more formal texture than Deepslate Bricks, while the nonflammable stone material suits Nether builds and fireplaces.

Deepslate Tiles work well in castle floors, vaults, crypts, industrial corridors, and dark foundations. Deepslate Tiles can be crafted into slabs, stairs, and walls; smelting one tile produces one Cracked Deepslate Tile, while combining two slabs vertically produces Chiseled Deepslate. A pickaxe is required to collect placed Deepslate Tiles. Builders can mix the tiles with Polished Deepslate and Deepslate Bricks to create clear borders and gradual texture changes.

Building guide

How to craft and use Deepslate Tiles

  1. 1

    Gather deepslate material

    Mine deepslate below the upper stone layers with a pickaxe, then obtain Cobbled Deepslate for crafting or stonecutting.

  2. 2

    Make four tiles

    Place four Deepslate Bricks in a 2×2 crafting grid to receive four Deepslate Tiles, or use a stonecutter for direct conversion.

  3. 3

    Build a patterned surface

    Place Deepslate Tiles on floors or walls and mix them with Polished Deepslate or Deepslate Bricks to mark borders and transitions.

  4. 4

    Create matching variants

    Craft slabs, stairs, or walls for edges; smelt a tile for a cracked version when an aged surface is needed.

Collection requirement

Use a pickaxe to collect placed Deepslate Tiles; breaking the block without a pickaxe drops nothing.
