Today is a sad day for Obsidian... It's crying. If you're not into crying, you could always take aim at the new Target that we've added.

Target
Because let’s face it, your aim could use some practice.

- Test your skills with a variety of projectiles, including eggs, snowballs, tridents, and more!
- You will need one hay block and four Redstone for this recipe
Zombified Piglin
