Description

Mossy Cobblestone Slab is the half-height form of mossy cobblestone: 3 mossy cobblestone blocks in a row on a crafting table make 6 slabs. A stonecutter turns 1 mossy cobblestone into 2 slabs, the same rate per block as crafting. Mossy Cobblestone Slab also generates as part of pillager outposts.

Mossy Cobblestone Slab fills the bottom or top half of a block, and a bottom slab plus a top slab of the same type in one space merge into a double slab that drops 2 slabs when broken. A single slab is partially transparent: in Java Edition a single slab blocks light only through its full faces, in Bedrock Edition the slab diffuses sky light. A double slab is opaque.

Guide

How to get and place Mossy Cobblestone Slab in Minecraft

  1. 1

    Craft the slabs

    A crafting table makes Mossy Cobblestone Slab when 3 mossy cobblestone blocks fill one row of the grid, and the recipe returns 6 slabs.

  2. 2

    Or use a stonecutter

    A stonecutter takes 1 mossy cobblestone block and outputs 2 Mossy Cobblestone Slab, the same rate per block as the crafting recipe.

  3. 3

    Place a bottom or top slab

    Mossy Cobblestone Slab becomes a bottom slab when placed on top of a block or on the lower half of a block side, and a top slab when placed under a block or on the upper half of a side.

  4. 4

    Merge two slabs

    A second Mossy Cobblestone Slab placed in the empty half of the same space makes a double slab, which acts as one full block.

Waterlogging

A single Mossy Cobblestone Slab placed in a water source block holds water in its empty half, so the slab works in flooded builds.
