Wind charge has so many uses and today we'll be sharing another one. One Reddit user invented a super simple cannon launcher made possible with the wind charge in Minecraft. You'll need four dispensers, seven redstone dust, four solid blocks, one slab, one button and at least four wind charges. Place the slab in the center, surround it with dispensers and place solid blocks between them. Place seven redstone dust on top of the blocks and a button on the eighth block. Fill dispensers with one wind charge, press the button and get launched!
Here are some tips to help you more easily farm wind charges in Minecraft 1.21. Create a room around the Breeze trial spawner to stop them from moving too much and jumping too high. Then, bring your tamed wolves to help you kill the Breeze quickly. You can also funnel the Breeze using water. Then, wait for them and hit them with the sword, Furthermore, you can make a semi-automatic farm, by adding a small room on one side, so Breezes can see and target you. They'll hit tamed wolves in the process and allow them to farm wind charges.
Wind charge has plenty of uses in Minecraft 1.21, but we listed six of the best ones apart from damaging others. First of all, it can catapult you in the air, thus, making some parkour jumps easier. Similarly to that, you can use the wind charge to move faster. The minigame opportunities are truly endless, as well as the way you prank your server mates. Since wind burst pushes entities, you can use wind charge to move mobs or interact with levers, buttons, and target blocks to trigger redstone contraptions from further away.
Wind charge is a projectile you can fire by right-clicking or using a dispenser in Minecraft 1.21. To obtain it, you'll need to find a trial chamber and kill the Breeze. This mob is guaranteed to drop 1-2 breeze rods, which you can then place in the crafting grid to get wind charges. The path of this projectile doesn't bend, but it's straight the entire way. It'll travel as long as it doesn't hit something. Also, wind charge will create a wind burst that knocks back entities, players and can damage them if it hits them directly.
Minecraft 24W06A snapshot added a drop for the Breeze and it's a wind charge projectile. You can fire it by right-clicking and once it collides with something, it'll create a small area of effect that knocks back entities. It will also deal damage to entities it collides directly with. This item will get used up and does have a cooldown of half a second. Apart from that, armadillo now has new animations and will only roll up for longer time when damaged. Vault's texture changed slightly and the tamed wolves are now much stronger than before.
The vault is a Minecraft 1.21 loot block with special properties. It has a face on the front side whose mouth opens when player is nearby. Vault requires a trial key to be unlocked. Once you do that, the mouth will close and items will be ejected on top of the block. Every player can open the vault with the trial key, but only once. The loot vault gives you varies from basic items like arrows and emeralds to special and rare loot like an armor trim, banner pattern and even a music disc.

The trial key is a special new Minecraft 1.21 item that you can get by completing trial spawner challenges. It is used to unlock the new vault blocks, which look similar to the trial spawners. They have a face on the front side that opens its "mouth" after it's unlocked. It will eject the rewards like armor and tools for players. The vault will reward every single player that unlocks it. But, each of the players will get the loot only once. Updated trial key and the vault block are coming soon to snapshots and previews.

Minecraft snapshot 24W04A brings new changes to the armadillo and new additions to the Breeze. Firstly, armadillo will roll up when a mob or player that attacked it recently gets close, even though they're just walking. Moreover, armadillo's shell will now protect it from incoming damage by reducing it. So, a weak punch won't hurt the armadillo anymore. Moreover, Breeze is now aggressive toward iron golems in the area, but will not attack the other hostile mobs from Trial Chambers. These mobs won't attack the Breeze anymore either, so you cannot rely on that strategy.
Breeze is a playful hostile mob that only spawns from trial spawners inside trial chambers. It moves fairly quickly and jumps a lot, which can lead to you getting disoriented. It attacks using the ranged attack - wind charge that you can avoid or reflect. To defeat the Breeze in Minecraft 1.21, you'll need armor, melee weapon, food and other optional items such as a water bucket, shield, etc. You should chase and charge at the Breeze, as well as avoid its projectiles. Use the shield to block projectiles and a water bucket to avoid fall damage.
Minecraft snapshot 24w03A has been released today, and it brings changes to the armadillo, experimental features, and spawn chunks. Armadillo texture now includes eyes on the sides and the base color is lighter. The armadillo scutes and wolf armor textures have also changed slightly. Spiders now run away from armadillos if they're not rolled up. Moreover, the Breeze mob can also deflect all projectiles, not just arrows and tridents. A brand new command lets you change the spawn chunk radius of your world, so you can easily boost performance. The new default value is 2 and it used to be 10.

Armadillo is a passive mob that spawns in savanna biomes. It is pretty rare and does curl in a ball if it feels threatened by undead mobs or fast-moving players. Favorite food of armadillos is spider eyes, which you can use to breed them. You can use a brush on the armadillo to collect scutes form it. With six scutes, you can make wolf armor. Walk up to your tamed wolf and right-click it with the wolf armor selected to equip this item. If you want to take off the wolf armor, you'll need to use shears on the wolf.
In the latest video on the Minecraft YouTube channel, we can clearly see a tab open on one of the developer's screen that's called a Frying table. Could it mean a first real cooking block in Minecraft? This would make a lot of sense as the food goes hand in hand with the combat feature of the game. It's also a fairly old system that could use an upgrade. You may be able to cook powerful food items that could provide you with status effects. Frying table is still a speculation, but would be a great addition in Minecraft 1.21.
Crafter is an advanced redstone block that allows you to craft items automatically. Best uses for the crafter in Minecraft 1.21 include a machine that can easily make simple recipes made by Rays Works, a machine that auto crafts dried kelp blocks made by xisumavoid, which you can later use as fuel and a machine that creates bamboo planks made by Mumbo Jumbo, which you can use to make all sorts of wooden blocks and items.
The trial key is a copper key you can get in trial chambers in Minecraft 1.21. You can get it in multiple ways: in the chests near the entrance to the structure, in decorated pots in the corridor and by completing the trial spawner's challenge. You're most likely to get the trial key from the trial spawner, which can produce ranged, melee and small melee mobs for you to fight. Not to forget, you'll also encounter the Breeze spawners in this structure. The trial key opens the vault block, which will reward every player that opens it only once.
Breeze is a playful hostile mob added in Minecraft 1.21 update. It kind of resembles the Blaze in a way and can only spawn from the special trial spawners in trial chambers. It moves around by jumping and attacks the player using only the ranged attack - wind charge. This projectile does very little damage when it collides directly with an entity, but can push them back by several blocks. Furthermore, the Breeze drops 1-2 breeze by default, which are used in crafting recipes for the wind charges, flow armor trim and the mace.
Trial chambers are massive structures that generate in the deepslate layers. You may find them while exploring these areas in your Minecraft world. Furthermore, cartographers sell a special explorer map that will lead you straight to a nearby trial chamber. If you have cheats enabled, you can also use the locate command to find trial chambers in Minecraft 1.21. Finally, you can use an online seed finder website like Chunk Base to easily and quickly get the coordinates of the trial chambers in the area.
Tuff bricks are new Minecraft 1.21 building blocks that you can craft in the crafting grid or inside the stonecutter. You'll need at least four polished tuff blocks to fulfil the crafting recipe and only one polished or regular tuff block to make one tuff brick block inside the stonecutter. You can also make other tuff brick variants such as walls, stairs, slabs and even chiseled tuff bricks using the crafting table or stonecutter.
Polished tuff blocks are rather beautiful smooth blocks you can make in two ways in Minecraft 1.21. First, you'll need four tuff blocks to make four polished tuff in the crafting grid. Also, you can convert one tuff block into one polished tuff block inside the stonecutter. They also generate as part of the trial chambers. Polished tuff blocks are building blocks, which you can also use to make stairs, slabs, walls and also tuff bricks.
To make copper grates in Minecraft 1.21, you'll need four copper blocks and a crafting table. Place the four copper blocks of the same oxidation stage in the diamond shape and you'll make copper grates. If you want to make a specific number of copper grates you can then use a stonecutter, which also provides 1:1 ratio. These blocks are only building blocks and they are available in four oxidation stages. You can scrape them with an axe or combine them with honeycomb.
Copper bulb is a special redstone component and light source block you can make with three copper blocks of the same oxidation stage, one redstone dust, one blaze rod and a crafting table in Minecraft 1.21. They also generate in trial chambers. This block emits light according to its oxidation level, the more it's oxidized the less light it gives off. You can only activate and deactivate the copper bulb when it receives redstone signal. While powered, comparators can output a redstone signal of 15 from a copper bulb.
Crafter is the Minecraft 1.21 revolutionary block that introduced auto-crafting to the game. It's fairly expensive as it requires five iron ingots, two crafting tables, two redstone dust and one dropper. It allows you to make both simple and complex items by disabling the cells inside it. The crafter will only work once it received redstone power. So, it's best to connect it to a redstone clock. It shoots out items from the front side only and you can place a chest in front so all items will end up in there.
Trial chambers are unique underground structures that are mostly made up of tuff and copper blocks in Minecraft 1.21. These structures generate in the deepslate layers, but not too deep. Mobs you'll encounter are chosen randomly from four categories. They are spawned by trial spawners and can be ranged, melee, small melee and the Breeze. You can get loot from various sources, be it chests, decorated pots, barrels, dispensers, trial spawners, vaults and ominous vaults.
