What is Spiky Spikes?
2 parts
Spiky Spikes adds spike blocks that hurt whatever walks over them, and it's built to improve your mob farms. There are 6 tiers, and each one behaves differently, so the tier you pick decides what your farm gives you.[1]
This pack includes version 21.1.1 of the mod, built for NeoForge on Minecraft 1.21.1. It has been in the pack since 1.0 or earlier.[2]
The six tiers
- Wooden: slowly damages mobs but does not deal a killing blow. Its screenshot caption says it brings mobs down to half a heart.[1]
- Stone: damages and kills mobs, but drops no loot and no experience.[1]
- Iron: damages and kills mobs, and drops normal loot without experience.[1]
- Golden: damages and kills mobs, and drops only experience without any loot.[1]
- Diamond: deals a lot of damage, and mobs drop all their loot as if a player had killed them. It can take most sword enchantments, applied via an anvil.[1]
- Netherite: does everything Diamond does, and it's also resistant to explosions and can't be destroyed by the wither boss. It deals no damage to players.[1]
Who it's for
If you build mob farms, this mod is for you. Iron gives you loot, Golden gives you experience, and Diamond or Netherite give you both, with enchantments on top. Wooden is the odd one out, because it does not deal a killing blow. That makes it handy if you want mobs weakened but still alive.[1]
Unverified The sources here don't show where the mod fits in the pack's quest book, and they don't confirm any quests or an ATM Star path for it.
How do you get started with Spiky Spikes?
5 parts
Spiky Spikes adds a spike for each tier from wooden to netherite, and each tier does something different to mobs. Your first steps here are mostly about picking the right spike for the job, because the tier decides what happens to a mob and what it drops when it dies.[3]
The pack changed some of the recipes, so don't rely on what you remember from the mod's defaults. The Iron, Golden, Diamond and Netherite spikes use pack-changed recipes. The Wooden and Stone spikes use the mod's own recipes. Every recipe block below shows the real in-pack recipe.[4]
Wooden Spike
The Wooden Spike slowly damages mobs but does not deal a killing blow. Use it when you want mobs worn down without dying.[3][4]

Stone Spike
Mobs killed by the Stone Spike do not drop any loot or experience. It's handy when you only want mobs gone and don't want drops piling up.[3][4]

How does Spiky Spikes work?
3 parts
Same as in the All the Mods 10: To the Sky 2.0.4 guide
Spiky Spikes adds six spike blocks, and each one changes what happens when a mob dies on it.[3]
What each spike does to loot
The tier you pick decides what a killed mob gives you, so choose it based on what your farm should produce.[1][3]
- Wooden Spike slowly damages mobs, but does not deal a killing blow.[3][5]
- Stone Spike: mobs killed on it do not drop any loot or experience.[3][5]
- Iron Spike: killed mobs only drop their normal loot, without experience.[3][5]
- Golden Spike: killed mobs only drop experience, without any loot.[3][5]
- Diamond Spike: killed mobs drop all loot, like when killed by a player.[3][5]
- Netherite Spike drops loot the same way as the Diamond Spike. It is also resistant to explosions and the wither boss, and it does not damage players.[3][5]
Enchanting diamond and netherite spikes
The Diamond and Netherite spikes accept most sword enchantments, which you apply via an anvil.[3]

How do you progress through Spiky Spikes?
3 parts
Spiky Spikes follows a material ladder in this pack: Wooden Spike, Stone Spike, Iron Spike, Golden Spike, Diamond Spike and Netherite Spike. Each one has its own crafting recipe, so you can move up as your resources improve.[4]
The pack's quest book has no quests for this mod, so the recipes below are your whole progression guide.[4]
Early tiers: wood and stone
The wooden and stone spikes use the mod's own recipes, and the pack has not changed them. Both are shaped crafting recipes.[4]

Middle tiers: iron, gold and diamond
From iron upward, the pack has changed the recipes, so don't rely on what you remember from the base mod. The recipes below are the exact in-pack versions. Some slots accept any item from a shared tag, so matching items from other mods work there too.[4]

Final tier: netherite
The netherite spike is an upgrade of the diamond spike rather than a build from scratch, and the pack changed this recipe too. It is a shapeless recipe, so ingredient placement doesn't matter. Craft the diamond spike first.[4]
