by Ghost

ForgeClient and serverAll rights reserved1.20.1

What it does

Sharowing's Better Dungeons adds a new dungeon-based trial chamber structure that sits alongside the vanilla dungeons, which remain in the world. The new structure is generated much larger than a vanilla dungeon, and it spreads several ancient spawners across its whole layout, so an explorer has to fight through many rooms to reach the loot. Right-clicking a spawner summons a group of undead mobs.

Killing a spawner drops an ancient key. Right-clicking an ancient vault with the key opens it, and the vault then releases a random assortment of items. Giant versions of the key open vaults that launch the player into the air when used. The mod also adds a new material that drops as ingots, raw forms and from vaults, and armor, weapons and tools made from it reach netherite-level tier.

The mod runs on Forge for 1.20.1 only, as a client and server mod, so the server and every player need it. Snapshot builds are not published, and the mod is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.

Key features

  1. Larger dungeon structures

    Generated dungeons span a much larger area, with ancient spawners placed throughout the entire structure.

  2. Ancient keys and vaults

    Spawner drops open ancient vaults, which release random items, and giant keys can launch players into the air.

  3. Soul Light

    A soul flame light gives night vision and haste for ten minutes, using a limited durability on the item.

  4. Tunnel Borer

    The buffed ancient shovel breaks anything except unbreakable blocks on right-click and uses five durability per break.
