'''Soul torches''' are non-solid [[block]]s that emit [[light]]. They are a variant of the [[torch]] crafted with the addition of [[soul soil]] or [[soul sand]].

== Obtaining ==
=== Breaking ===
Soul torches can be broken instantly using anything, and drop themselves as an item.

A soul torch is removed and drops itself as an item if:

* Its attachment block is moved, removed, or destroyed
* [[Water]] or [[lava]] flows into its space
* A [[piston]] pushes it or moves a block into its space

=== Generated loot ===
{{LootChestItem|soul-torch}}

=== Crafting ===
{{Crafting
|B1= Coal; Charcoal
|B2= Stick
|B3= Soul Soil; Soul Sand
|Output= Soul Torch, 4
|type= Decoration block
|foot=1
}}

== Usage ==
[[File:Soul Torch Orientations.png|thumb|Soul torches in various positions on [[chiseled stone bricks]].]]

Soul torches can be placed on the top or the sides of most solid blocks, although some blocks require {{control|sneaking}}. Being non-solid, soul torches have no collision box. More information about placement can be found at [[Opacity/Placement]].

Gravity-affected blocks like [[sand]] and [[gravel]] will not start falling if the space immediately beneath is occupied by a soul torch. Falling blocks break if they fall onto a solid block with a soul torch above it. If there is an [[air]] block under the soul torch, the falling blocks fall through the soul torch onto the surface below.<ref>{{bug|MC-3262|||WAI}}</ref>

=== Light ===
Soul torches give off a light level of 10. Due to their lower light level, soul torches do not melt [[snow]] or [[ice]].

=== Piglins ===
Soul torches repel [[piglin]]s but not [[piglin brute]]s.
