Is it better to mine glowstone with fortune or silk touch?

For glowstone, Silk Touch is generally better because you get the whole block (which yields 4 dust when crafted), offering better storage and building efficiency, whereas Fortune only slightly increases dust drops (max 4), making it less impactful than with other ores. Use Silk Touch to get blocks, then craft them into dust later, or use a Fortune pickaxe for more dust if you're in a hurry for potions and don't mind the inefficiency.

What is the most efficient way to mine glowstone?

The best way to mine Glowstone in Minecraft depends on what you need: use a Silk Touch pickaxe to get the blocks themselves (perfect for building/recrafting), but use a Fortune III pickaxe for more dust (great for potions), as it increases the chance of getting 2-4 dust per block, though you'll always get more blocks with Silk Touch. For large renewable amounts, build a witch farm or trade with cleric villagers for emeralds, as they sell Glowstone.

Can you mine glowstone with fortune?

Yes, the Fortune enchantment works on Glowstone in Minecraft, increasing the amount of Glowstone Dust you get, but it's capped at 4 dust per block, so using Silk Touch to get the block itself (which can then be crafted into dust) is often more efficient for bulk harvesting. Fortune boosts your chances for more drops, with Fortune III guaranteeing 4 dust, while regular mining yields 2-4 dust, making Silk Touch better for getting blocks and Fortune better for maximizing dust from individual blocks, though the difference isn't huge.

What is the rarest enchantment in Minecraft?

The rarest enchantment in Minecraft is currently Wind Burst (Level 3) for the Mace, found exclusively in Ominous Vaults with a tiny chance via Ominous Trial Keys, making it harder to get than older "treasure" enchants like Mending or Soul Speed. While curses (Binding, Vanishing) and Soul Speed/Frost Walker are rare "treasure" enchants, Wind Burst's restricted source and low odds in the new 1.21 update make it the current top contender for rarity.
