Obtaining[]

Clay Balls can be obtained as a GOOD CATCH from Fishing in water (except in Galatea or using a Junk Sinker). It also drops from Sea Creatures in the Backwater Bayou.

The player can also trade 12x Seeds for 1x Clay Ball in the Trades menu of their SkyBlock Menu. However, this does not count towards the player's Clay Ball collection.

It can also be obtained in larger quantities automatically by using a Clay Minion on the player's island.

When caught, Clay Ball grants +30 Fishing XP.

Usage[]

Clay Balls have no direct overworld usage, being simply an ingredient for crafting. It can still be crafted into Clay blocks as usual, as well as smelted in a furnace to get Bricks, as is the case in vanilla Minecraft.
