Tox-En
Tox-En is toxic Energon. It hurts anything from Cybertron that gets near it, and Transformers that carry or eat it.

What it does
Section titled “What it does”It hurts in any form: crystals, blocks, lights, lit lamps, Cubes and Batteries holding it, Tox-En in chests or on the ground, and anyone carrying it, you included.
| How close | Effect |
|---|---|
| Within 5 blocks | Slowness and Weakness |
| Within 2 blocks, or in your own inventory | Nausea, Darkness and Wither II on top |
The effects fade a second or two after you get away from it. The longer you stay near it, the longer they last once you leave: every 2 seconds of exposure adds a second, up to 45 seconds.
Eating a shard is worse. Only Transformers can eat it, and it gives Nausea III and Darkness for 45 seconds, Slowness II and Weakness II for 30 seconds, and Wither III for 15 seconds.
A Tox-En Lamp is only dangerous while it’s lit. An unlit one, or one in your inventory, is safe.
It affects Transformer players in robot or vehicle form, Vehicons and the other Transformer NPCs, Terrorcons and Scraplets. Humans and other mobs aren’t affected at all, so if you need to move some, get a human to do it.
If it kills you, the death message reads succumbed to Tox-En exposure.
Vehicons and Tox-En
Section titled “Vehicons and Tox-En”Vehicons get poisoned by Tox-En too, so if one ends up holding some it’ll get rid of it within a second. What it does with it depends on its personality:
| Personality | What it does |
|---|---|
| Aggressive | Throws it at whoever it’s fighting |
| Coward | Flings it at whoever is nearest, then runs |
| Cautious | Throws it far away from everyone |
| Curious | Tosses it to another Vehicon as a prank |
| Leader | Hands it to a follower to get rid of |
If thrown Tox-En hits a Vehicon, that Vehicon catches it and then has to get rid of it too. They’ll also stay away from Tox-En lying on the ground. Terrorcon Cliffjumpers can’t stand it either, and run from any Tox-En nearby unless they’re going after Dark Energon.
Finding it
Section titled “Finding it”Tox-En deposits are the rarest of all, about 1 in 150 chunks, and only deep in the Overworld between y −64 and y 0. Some of them have Budding Tox-En, which keeps growing new crystals. See Where to find Energon.
