# Spawners

## Spawners

Spawners are intentionally harder to set up. You craft them with Spawner Cores and Mob Heads.

Natural spawners cannot be picked up with Silk Touch. Breaking one always gives `3` matching mob heads instead.

Crafted and placed spawners can be picked up with Silk Touch. If you have a rank, Silk Touch is not required.

### Spawner Cores

Spawner Cores are the base crafting item for custom spawners. Surround one with matching mob heads in a crafting table to create a spawner.

Buy Spawner Cores with in-game money from `/shop`, or win them from Legendary and Monthly Crates.

***

### Mob Heads

Mobs can drop their head when killed by a player:

| Type         | Chance |
| ------------ | ------ |
| Natural mobs | `10%`  |
| Spawner mobs | `1%`   |

These rates are not affected by Looting or the Decapitation enchant.

***

### Crafting spawners

Place a Spawner Core in a crafting table and surround it with matching mob heads to create a mob spawner.
