Shovel

Shovels are tools used to hasten the process of breaking dirt, sand, gravel, and other soil blocks, as well as to convert dirt blocks into dirt paths.
== Obtaining ==
=== Crafting ===
=== Upgrading ===
Like other diamond tools, a diamond shovel can be upgraded to a netherite shovel, although increased durability and resistance to fire/lava in item form are the only benefits. The shovel's performance as a digging tool or a weapon is unchanged by the upgrade.
=== Repairing ===
==== Grinding ====
==== Unit repair ====
 
A shovel can be repaired in an anvil by adding units of the tiers' repair material, with each repair material restoring 25% the shovel's maximum durability, rounded down. It also keeps the shovel's enchantments.
=== Chest loot ===
On ancient_city/city_center/city_center_2, they generate a furnace with a wooden shovel inside of it.
=== Mob loot ===
==== Equipment ====
Zombies and husks have a 0.67% (3.33% in Hard difficulty) chance of spawning with an iron shovel. They have an 8.5% (9.5% with Looting I, 10.5% with Looting II and 11.5% with Looting III) chance of dropping that shovel if they are killed by the player. The dropped shovel is usually badly damaged, and may be enchanted: 0%–25% on Normal difficulty and 3.125%–25% on Hard difficulty, varying with regional difficulty, and enchanted as if on an enchanting table at level 5–22.
==== Raids ====
Vindicators and pillagers that spawn from raids have a 4.1% chance(5.12% on hard) to drop a badly-damaged iron shovel that is sometimes enchanted with a random enchantment.
=== Trading ===
Novice-level toolsmith villagers have a 25% chance to sell stone shovels for one emerald, journeyman-level toolsmith villagers have a 25% chance to sell enchanted iron shovels for 2 emeralds, and expert-level toolsmith villagers have a 50% chance to sell enchanted diamond shovels for 5 emeralds as part of their trades.
Novice-level toolsmith villagers have a 40% chance to sell stone shovels for one emerald, journeyman-level tool smiths have a 40% chance to sell an enchanted iron shovel for 7-22 emeralds, and expert-level tool smiths have a chance to sell an enchanted diamond shovel for 11-27 emeralds.
The enchantments are the same as the ones obtained from an enchanting table at levels 5–19.
=== Villager gifts ===
, toolsmith villagers occasionally throw stone shovels at players with the Hero of the Village effect.
== Usage ==
=== Digging ===
A shovel can be used to break some materials faster. When breaking a block, it uses 1 durability. For blocks that break instantly, it uses 0 durabilities.
==== Durability ====
Each different tier of shovel has a different durability:
Material	Durability
 	59
 	131
 	250
 	1561
 	32
 	2031
==== Speed ====
The following table summarizes the speed at which different quality shovels perform on different block types. Values with a red background indicate that no resource is dropped when the block is destroyed without a shovel.
