Falling toward a wall? Right-click it with a pickaxe. It bites into the surface and friction bleeds off your downward speed as you scrape along the edge. Harder blocks provide more resistance, slowing you down significantly faster.
Note: Higher-tier pickaxes hold onto surfaces longer and drain durability at a lower rate.
| Block Type | Behavior | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Hard Blocks (Stone, Obsidian) |
Friction eats momentum every tick until you stop dead, hanging in place until grip or durability expires. | Full Stop / Lock-In |
| Soft Blocks (Dirt, Sand) |
No locking mechanic. You slide continuously down the face of the wall. | Reduced Damage |
Quick Escape: Double-tap Crouch within 0.7 seconds to kick yourself off the wall at any time, whether you are hanging still or mid-slide.
Reduces fall damage roughly in half, capped so even a massive slide won't kill you.
| Standard Fall | Wall Slide |
|---|---|
 |
 |
| No slide (Full Damage) | Sliding (Half Damage) |
| Hard Block Catch | Wall Kick Jump |
|---|---|

 |
| Bleeds speed until fully locked |
Double-tap crouch to kick off mid-hang |
Apply these to pickaxes via an Enchanting Table or Anvil:
| Enchantment | Max Level | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Grip | III | Extends how long you can hang onto a wall before slipping |
| Momentum | III | Reduces the forced cooldown length after slipping |
