FAQ

What is the fastest tool to mine a carved pumpkin?

An axe, though any tool or bare hands can break it since no minimum tier is required.

Does wearing a carved pumpkin protect me from endermen?

Yes. Wearing one prevents endermen from becoming hostile when looked at, though it also obstructs and darkens the player's view.

Does a carved pumpkin give armor points?

No, it has no armor value; it is worn purely for its enderman-safety and disguise effects.

Can I turn it back into a regular pumpkin?

No, carving is a one-way process and cannot be reversed.
