Crafting and Using the Diamond Weapons
The Three Diamond Guns
The Diamond Shotgun, Diamond Sniper, and Diamond Gatling are the top-tier firearms. Each is made with a shaped crafting recipe using diamonds alongside other materials. Build them at a crafting table once you have a steady diamond supply.
Each gun fills a different role. The Shotgun is for close range, the Sniper is for long distance, and the Gatling is for sustained fire. Pick the one that matches how you fight.
Feeding the Diamond Guns
All three use the same bullet pool as the lower-tier guns. Load up on Iron Bullet as your baseline, then swap in specialty rounds for specific situations:
- Explosive Bullet for groups or terrain
- Blaze Bullet for fire damage
- Chorus Fruit Bullet for unusual movement effects on hit
- Prismarine Bullet and Amethyst Bullet for their own impact behaviors
- Flint Bullet as a cheap alternative
Every bullet is made with a shapeless recipe, so you can craft them anywhere as long as you have the ingredients in your inventory.
Keep a Bullet Bag on you to hold multiple round types without cluttering your hotbar. Switch ammo by selecting the bullet you want before firing.
