What is Spiky Spikes?
3 parts
Spiky Spikes adds spike blocks in six tiers, and each tier behaves differently. The mod is built for mob farms: put spikes where mobs walk, and they do the killing for you. This pack ships version 21.1.1 of the mod for NeoForge on Minecraft 1.21.1, and it has been in the pack since 1.0 or earlier.[1][2]
The six tiers
- Wooden: slowly damages mobs, but does not deal a killing blow. The mod page shows it bringing mobs down to half a heart.[1]
- Stone: damages and kills mobs, but drops no loot or experience.[1]
- Iron: kills mobs and drops normal loot, but no experience.[1]
- Golden: kills mobs and drops only experience, with no 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 at an anvil.[1]
- Netherite: does everything the diamond spike does. It also resists explosions, can't be destroyed by the wither boss, and deals no damage to players.[1]
Who it's for
If you want to tune a farm, this is the mod for you. Pick iron for loot only, golden for experience only, or diamond and netherite for full drops. Netherite is also the safest choice if you'll be standing near your own farm.[1]
Where it fits in progression
The sources I have don't show any quest or ATM Star path involvement for this mod, and they don't show any pack changes to it. Treat it as an optional tool for your mob farms, and don't expect it to be a required progression step.[1][2]
How do you get started with Spiky Spikes?
5 parts
Spiky Spikes gives you 6 tiers of spikes, and each one has its own job in a mob farm. You don't need to rush to the top tier. Pick the spike that matches what you want from the mobs, and work up from there.[1]
Wooden Spike: the gentle starter
The Wooden Spike slowly damages mobs but does not deal a killing blow, and it brings mobs down to half a heart. The recipe is the mod's own, and the pack hasn't changed it.[1][3][4]

The Stone Spike damages and kills mobs, but they drop no loot and no experience. This is also an unchanged mod recipe.[1][3][4]

Iron and Golden Spikes: pick your reward
These spikes split the rewards. The Iron Spike gives normal loot but no experience. The Golden Spike gives only experience and no loot. The pack has changed both recipes, so don't rely on recipes you remember from other packs.[3][4]

Diamond Spike: full loot and enchantments
The Diamond Spike is the all-rounder. It deals a lot of damage, and killed mobs drop all their loot, as if a player had killed them. It also accepts most sword enchantments through an anvil. The pack has changed this recipe too.[1][3][4]

Netherite Spike: the top tier
The Netherite Spike gives the same full loot and enchantment support as the Diamond Spike. On top of that, it resists explosions and the wither boss, and it does not damage players. The pack has changed this recipe as well, so check the recipe below.[1][3][4]

If you're unsure which spike to craft first, start with the Wooden or Stone Spike. Move to the Iron, Golden, Diamond or Netherite Spike when you know what you want your farm to drop.[1][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.[4]
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][4]
- Wooden Spike slowly damages mobs, but does not deal a killing blow.[4][5]
- Stone Spike: mobs killed on it do not drop any loot or experience.[4][5]
- Iron Spike: killed mobs only drop their normal loot, without experience.[4][5]
- Golden Spike: killed mobs only drop experience, without any loot.[4][5]
- Diamond Spike: killed mobs drop all loot, like when killed by a player.[4][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.[4][5]
Enchanting diamond and netherite spikes
The Diamond and Netherite spikes accept most sword enchantments, which you apply via an anvil.[4]
Crafting
The pack changes the recipes for the Iron, Golden, Diamond and Netherite spikes. The Stone and Wooden spikes use the mod's own recipes. The blocks below show the exact in-pack recipes.[5]

This recipe is changed by the pack. It upgrades a Diamond Spike rather than starting from scratch.
Unverified The sources here include no config files for this mod, so any adjustable values are not shown in this guide.
How do you progress through Spiky Spikes?
3 parts
In this pack the spikes climb a material ladder: Wooden Spike, Stone Spike, Iron Spike, Golden Spike, Diamond Spike and Netherite Spike. Most tiers are crafted around the matching sword, and the top tier is an upgrade of the one before it.[3]
Early tiers: wood and stone
The wooden and stone spikes use the mod's own recipes, so the pack has not changed them. Both are shaped crafting recipes that start from the matching sword.[3]

Mid tiers: iron, gold and diamond
This is where the pack steps in. The recipes for the iron, golden and diamond spikes are all marked as changed by the pack, so they are not the mod's defaults. They are still shaped crafting recipes built around the matching sword, so treat the recipes below as the truth for this pack.[3]

Top tier: netherite
The Netherite Spike is not crafted from a sword like the others. It is a shapeless upgrade recipe that builds on the Diamond Spike, and the pack has changed it. Craft your diamond spike first, then upgrade it.[3]
