Clay is a sticky and soft resource found in [[clay tile]]s that can be easily formed into [[pottery]] items like [[clay bowl]]s, [[clay flask]]s, or [[clay jar]]s. [[Masonry|Masons]] also make use of clay as a bonding material for the [[stone brick]]s used in [[guard tower]]s and [[stone forge]]s, or to mix the better bonding material [[mortar]] to build [[stone house]]s, for example.

Clay, once [[digging|dug]] up, has a high [[decay]] speed and is pointless to store for more than a few days. It can however be kept in a [[bulk storage bin]].

Clay can be obtained by digging on a [[clay tile]].
  
[[Clay tile]]s can be raised by dropping [[dirt]] or [[sand]]. They can be lowered with the [[level]] command if all corners are higher or level to an adjacent flat tile and your [[digging]] skill is at least 70.

Description

Grey sticky clay that could be easily formed into items.

Clay can be obtained by digging on a clay tile.

Usage

Clay can be easily formed into pottery items like clay bowls, clay flasks, or clay jars. Masons also make use of clay as a bonding material for the stone bricks used in guard towers and stone forges, or to mix the better bonding material mortar to build stone houses, for example.

Clay items can be heated in a forge, campfire or Kiln to become pottery items.

Notes

  • Clay has a high decay speed.
  • "Continue Building" will only use 2kg of a lump at a time.
  • Building failures will damage the whole lump, not just the 2kg part of it that was used
  • Clay items can not be changed back into clay.
