Dripstone, as the name suggests, is primarily found in the dripstone caves biome. You’ll recognise it from its rough texture and characteristic shape – forming pillars that stretch from the floor to the ceiling of the cave, as well as spikes that hang down from the roof (known as stalactites) or point up from the ground (known as stalagmites).
Dripstone comes in two forms – dripstone blocks and pointed dripstone. The blocks serve as the base for the pointed variant to extend from, and they can be easily converted. Four pointed dripstone in a crafting grid will make a dripstone block, and if a dripstone block has a water source block above it, it will very slowly grow pointed dripstone beneath.
Be careful, because pointed dripstone can be sharp. If one falls on you from above, it hurts. If you fall onto one, it also hurts. For this reason, you’ll want to be extra careful when exploring dripstone caves. But pointed dripstone can also be useful for gathering liquids – there’s a small chance to fill a cauldron when one is positioned below a stalactite.
