Minecraft Copper Golem Statue Guide: How to Get, Oxidation, and Redstone

In Short
  • Copper golem statue can be obtained in Minecraft when a copper golem fully oxidizes itself.
  • There are four poses the copper golem statues can do where each has the ability to emit a unique strength of redstone signal.
  • You can obtain rest of the colors for a copper golem statue by scraping off its patina using an axe.

Copper Golems in Minecraft have some exceptional mechanics as compared to the previous golem variants. Although they don’t fight or protect you, they will keep your inventory clean and sorted in the game. However, there’s just a single drawback— their batteries will eventually run out. The new Copper Golems will then turn into a statue when left unattended for a long time. So, if you want to know all about the copper golem statues in Minecraft, go through this guide here.

How to Get a Copper Golem Statue in Minecraft

Copper Golem statues can neither be crafted nor they can be found in the open world of Minecraft. So, in order to get one, you must create a living copper golem first. So all you need is a solid copper block and a carved pumpkin.

We have a detailed guide to make a copper golem in Minecraft, if you want to know more about the basic ingredients. Now, simply place the copper block on the ground and the carved pumpkin on top of it to get your copper golem and a copper chest underneath.

With the first step out of the way, you must now wait for a while to let the Copper Golem oxidize and change its color. You will then notice the copper golem slowly turning greener with an increase in its oxidative state. So, once the whole copper golem is green and is fully oxidized, there will be a 0.58% chance per tick that the golem turns into a statue.

So, it will take an average of 8.62 seconds for the fully oxidized copper golem to turn into a statue. During this transformation, if the golem is holding any item in its hand, it will get dropped to the ground, and the copper golem will have a random pose before it goes numb.

All Poses of Copper Golem Statue

The Copper Golem can have four different poses while turning into a statue, including the original standing pose, sitting pose, running pose, and star pose. If you don’t like the pose it originally had during the transformation, you can click on the statue with an empty hand to change the pose. That said, all the statue poses are displayed as below:

All Features of Copper Golem Statue

The Copper Golem statue is a unique addition to the game. Whether it’s about the different color variants or how it reacts with redstone components, each can help you make your base look more alive. That said, here are the two key features of the copper golem statue:

1. Oxidation States

Although the copper golem statue is formed only when the golem reaches the final oxidation state, you can manually change the states of the statue as well. All you need is a simple axe, and you can scrape the patina off a fully oxidized copper golem statue to bring back its rusty color.

Do note that with each scrape, the statue goes back one oxidation state. So, once the golem statue is fully rusty orange in color, the next scrape will bring it back to life. The change in states can also be done by redirecting lightning bolts to make them fall on the statue. Lastly, if you want to keep a certain state on the statue for the rest of the time, you can wax it using a honeycomb and lock its color.

2. Redstone Mechanism

The copper golem statues can emit redstone signals that can be detected by the comparator. Plus, the strength of signals emitted by the statue depends on its pose, explained as follows:

  • Standing Pose: 1
  • Sitting Pose: 2
  • Running Pose: 3
  • Star Pose: 4

The redstone strength means the number of redstone dust lines the signal can travel. For instance, if the statue is doing the standing pose, and a comparator is kept right next to it, it will emit a redstone signal that can travel a single redstone powder line.

This way, you can use these statues as connectors in various redstone builds, since they can generate power without the need for redstone torches or any sort of levers.

So, that is all about the copper golem statue in Minecraft, how you can get it, and what all the useful features are. Have you tested out this new trick with the statues in the game yet? Let us know in the comments below.
