Volcano Smash

Right-click the top face of a block with the Volcano Hammer to activate Volcano Smash.

The ability attempts to create a 3×3 ring of fire one block above the clicked surface:

F F F
F . F
F F F

F = fire
. = safe center

The ability:

  • Keeps the center clear
  • Can create up to 8 fire blocks
  • Uses Minecraft's normal fire-placement rules
  • Clears replaceable blocks such as grass or flowers when needed
  • Plays the heavy mace-smash sound
  • Creates lava, flame, and large-smoke particles
  • Has a 6-second cooldown
  • Costs 3 durability

If no valid fire positions can be created, the smash does not consume durability or start its cooldown.

Fire Resistance

Holding the Volcano Hammer in either the main hand or off hand grants Fire Resistance I.

The effect is refreshed every 10 ticks with a 30-tick duration, so it remains active while the hammer is held and disappears shortly after the weapon is put away.

The effect does not activate when the hammer is merely sitting elsewhere in the inventory.

Lava Particles

While held, the hammer produces a dripping-lava particle roughly once every 6 ticks.

An additional brighter lava particle appears every 24 ticks.

The particles are positioned near the arm actually holding the weapon.
