Dungeon Bricks

Dungeon Bricks are a type of brick from which the Dungeon is constructed. On world generation, one of three colors of Dungeon Brick is chosen to create the entirety of the Dungeon. Dungeon Brick is one of very few block types that is impervious to explosions. 100% Pickaxe power (a Molten Pickaxe or better) / 65% Pickaxe power (a Nightmare/Deathbringer or better) is required to mine Dungeon Bricks in the Underground-level Dungeon, although any pickaxe can destroy Dungeon Bricks at or above the Surface layer, and any Dungeon Bricks placed within the center third of the world. A Chlorophyte Extractinator can be used to cycle between Dungeon Brick colors.

== Notes ==
* Dungeon Brick is a coveted building material since it is impervious to all explosions.
** It can be useful in multiplayer, especially in PvP, when other players may want to use Bombs/Dynamite to clear away other players' buildings.
** This also creates arena possibilities where Bombs/Dynamite can be used without destroying the arena, e.g. during the Wall of Flesh fight.
* Dungeon Bricks do not shield explosions, and are only impervious to explosions themselves. Anything within range of an explosion will take damage even when Dungeon Bricks are in the way.
* Before acquiring a Molten Pickaxe or better, a player can mine Surface-level Dungeon Bricks and can place them down inside of the Underground-level Dungeon, but will not be able to mine them, potentially leaving them trapped or cut off from the rest of the Dungeon.
*In Journey Mode, the Dungeon antechamber has enough wall tiles to research for replication (400). To get all variations of the dungeon wall, more than one world would need to be visited.
