FAQ

What tool do I need to mine it?

An axe mines it fastest, but any tool works and there is no minimum tier requirement.

Is the wall banner a different item from the standing banner?

No. Both the standing and wall-mounted forms drop the same Light Gray Banner item; the placement form only depends on whether it is placed on the floor or against a wall.

Is the banner flammable?

No. Banners do not burn, though lava can scorch the air block next to one as if it were flammable without actually destroying the banner.

How many pattern layers can a banner hold?

Up to six layers, applied one at a time at a loom using a banner pattern item and a dye.
