Default spawner hardnesses

  • Peaceful: Same hardness as vanilla (5F)
  • Easy: Same as end stone (9F)
  • Normal: Same as ender chests (22.5F)
  • Hard: Same as ancient debris (30F)
  • Hardcore: Same as obsidian (50F)

Unlike some of the blocks mentioned above, you can still destroy a spawner with any tool you want as long as you don't use your bare hands.

Config

As of v1.3.0, the spawner hardnesses are configurable in the variablespawnerhardness-common.toml config file.
