Block placing wands are special Tools that allow the player to place Blocks they would normally not be able to place. They do not consume any Mana. Each wand consumes a specific material from the player's inventory (details listed below). There are currently 6 / 4 Block placing wands.

Rarity1

The Bone Wand places Bone Blocks at the cost of one Bone per Block. The placed Blocks remain as Bone Blocks even if later mined by a Pickaxe, do not return to normal bone, and therefore can exist in a player's Inventory. The Bone Wand has a 0.4% chance to drop from Angry Bones, Dark Casters, and Cursed Skulls, which spawn in the Dungeon.

Hive Wand

Rarity1

The Hive Wand allows the player to place Hives (Blocks), which otherwise, cannot be placed. Hives must be in the player's Inventory in order to place them. It has a 33% chance to be dropped by the Queen Bee.

Notes

  • Because mining Hives placed by the Hive Wand act the same as naturally generated ones, they can also break to form Honey. You cannot however get infinite honey because Hives do not drop when Honey is formed.
  • Mining a Hive block placed with the Hive Wand can still spawn bees like naturally generated ones.
