    Brief Description:
    Magic pickaxe L3 not giving 10% chance of double drops

    Instructions:
    1) Gather large sample size of iron ore on /m - mining 3 stacks of ore with an L1 pick grants 2 stacks of blocks - this will be used as base sample.
    2) Mine each 3 stacks, expected to get batches of greater than 2 stacks of iron blocks (due to chance of double drop) however the result yields only 2 stacks (Tried this with a very large sample of iron ore , thus 10% chance of double drop should occur at least once)

    How many times did you recreate this?:
    Multiple times on /m

    Result:
    No double drop chance
    Expected Result:
    Chances of double dropping expected especially if using a large sample size
    Evidence:
    None except of steps given

    Upon further testing, I can confirm that the double drop does work on natural ore but not placed ore. That's probably the issue at hand

    Which i think is intended looking at this post

    I assume that what you're talking about that you don't get the 10% chance on ore you buy or silk first

    Pretty sure there was a dupe regarding artificially placed blocks getting the 10% buff. This is intentional.

    I am sure they could limit which blocks get the 10% buff. It really only needs to work on ore.

    Also I think this is currently intended, but andrew may be open to changing it if a suggestion is filed, just like when he allowed the magic pick to work on placed ore again for the 6 ingot conversion.

    Yeah the reason I filed this was I believe Andrew posted in discord once that changes to placed blocks were reverted. Just not sure if the 10% chance applies in this case
