Different tiers of Tools have different durabilities:
- Gold – 33 uses
- Wood – 60 uses
- Stone – 132 uses
- Iron – 251 uses
- Diamond – 1562 uses
Other miscellaneous Tools also have durability:
- Fishing Rods – 65 uses

- Shears – 238 uses
- Bow – 385 uses
- Elytra – 432 uses
- Shield (Upcoming) — 337 uses
Repairing[]
Anvil[]
By placing two damaged items of the same kind in an Anvil together, the first item can be repaired. This will combine the items and give one item with their combined durabilities and an extra 5% durability. Enchantments will also combine, if possible.
In some cases the Player can also provide a crafting material instead of a second damaged item of the item. For example, to repair an Iron Pickaxe The Player can place one or more Iron Ingots in the second slot of the Anvil.
Repairs using an Anvil have an Experience cost, which increases as the durability decreases.
Crafting Table[]
Items can also be repaired in a Crafting Table if the Player has chosen the Classic UI (rather than the MATTIS UI) by placing the two damaged items in the Crafting Grid together. This will not cost the Player any Experience, but the resulting fixed item will lose any Enchantments that the damaged items had.
