You need to find suspicious gravel blocks and suspicious sand first. The texture of these blocks is more detailed than usual sand and gravel blocks. In Minecraft, examining the bottom of the desert wells is the simplest method for locating suspicious sand.

Tips for using the brush in minecraft

  • Conserve Durability: Use the Mending or Unbreaking enchantments to extend lifespan of your brush.
  • Suspicious Sand and Suspicious Gravel have a slightly different texture appearance compared to the regular ones. Look for dashes or specks on the surface to distinguish them.
  • Explore Ruins Thoroughly: Suspicious blocks can be scattered throughout whole desert temples, so explore carefully to find all of the ones hiding.
  • Experiment with Different Ruins: The types of items found within suspicious blocks can vary depending on the type of ruin you’re exploring.
  • Utilize Items: Use the pottery shards to craft unique pots, and enjoy the other treasures!
  • Gather Items: Pick up the revealed items, which can include pottery shards, coal, dyes, decorative items, and even rare minerals like emeralds.
