Reinforced deepslate is a block that generates exclusively in ancient cities. It has high hardness, is immune to explosions, and cannot be obtained in Survival mode.
Obtaining[edit | edit source]
Reinforced deepslate is not obtainable in Survival, even with Silk Touch, and is only available through the Creative inventory or commands. It cannot be pushed by a piston, is highly blast resistant, has higher hardness than obsidian, and cannot be destroyed by the wither or the ender dragon.
Breaking[edit | edit source]
Reinforced deepslate has no tool associated with it, meaning it is mined at the exact same speed regardless of the tool used.

"This was unintended, as I've mentioned to some people there is an interesting design space to be explored about wither-proof moveable blocks that you can't obtain by mining, and only moving.
In saying that, I don't know if that's a space we're going to explore this update." – @kingbdogz on X (formerly Twitter), February 18, 2022
"It would be kinda funny if we literally added a new block called "Wither Cage" that cannot be obtained by mining 😏" – @kingbdogz on X (formerly Twitter), February 18, 2022 - ↑ "Could you maybe explain what's up with reinforced deepslate? Like why rank it an S?" – @GhirkinThe on X (formerly Twitter), February 24, 2022
