Boulder rain is an event occuring during Thunderstorm in a world with Drunk and For the Worthy special seeds active, and Remix seed inactive.[1]

Each tick,[2] there is a 1/3 (33.33%) chance (or 1/5 (20%) chance if The Constant seed is active) for a Boulder to fall from a random location near the top world border, with 49/50 (98%) chance to be a regular Boulder or 1/50 (2%) chance to be a Bouncy Boulder. The angle at which the Boulders fall is affected by wind speed, with the angle becoming sharper as the wind speed increases. These Boulders deal 140 / 280 / 420 damage to players (70 damage to non-player entities) and inflict a knockback of 10 (Extremely strong).

Notes

  • Regular Boulders from the Boulder rain still inherit the change from For the Worthy seed, releasing 2–4 miniature Boulders when they break.
