Minecraft 1.21 has launched an exciting new challenge with the incorporation of Trial Chambers. These methodically generated underground structures are full of traps, powerful enemies, and special rewards. This guide will help you understand how to find Trial Chambers, deal with the dangers, and navigate the treasures of trial chambers, making sure you win.
What Are Trial Chambers?
Trial chambers are the latest automatically generating underground cells that debut in Minecraft 1.21. These chambers are complicated mazes filled with traps. They are found deep underground between -20 and -40. Each chamber is special, providing a different hurdle with every exploration.
Trial Chambers are packed with traps, trial spawners, and the frightening Breeze enemies. They are created to test your fighting skills and offer notable rewards for those fearless enough to battle risks.
How to Find Trial Chambers
How to Find Trial Chambers
Trial Chambers are hidden below the overworld, making them a little challenging to find. You won’t discover any surface indicators signaling their presence, so finding them often includes mining or cave exploration.
When going underground, be alert for copper and tuff walls, which indicate the entrance to a Trial Chamber. Carefully open up to see what’s on the other side—there could be rooms with battles or rooms full of treasures waiting for you.
You can also find them by making use of trial chambers maps, which can be received by trading with a journeyman-cartographer villager for 12 emeralds and a compass.
Structure of Trial Chambers
Structure of Trial Chambers
Trial chambers are all built the same way, with five main parts: atrium, corridors, hallways, chambers, and an entrance chamber. The entrance chamber starts everything off.
- Atrium: A tall room that links the entrance chamber to the first corridor.
- Corridors: These can have different types of trial spawners (except Breeze), chests with supplies, decorated pots, and traps with tripwires. You’ll also find copper doors here that lead to other parts of the chambers.
- Hallways: These come off the corridors and might lead to more combat rooms.
- Chambers: This is where the real fighting happens. Each one has several trial spawners, vaults, an ominous vault, and empty chests.
Mobs only come from trial spawners inside chambers, so you won’t face surprise enemies. This lets you plan your moves carefully.
Understanding Trial Spawners
Understanding Trial Spawners
Trial Spawners are special in Trial Chambers. They create monsters depending on how many players are nearby:
- Breeze Trial Spawner: Makes 2 Breezes alone. Adds 1 more Breeze for each extra player.
- General Trial Spawner: Can create up to 6 mobs by itself. Adds 2 more for each extra player.
Blocks around a trial spawner show which mobs it will create:
- Breeze: 1 copper, 4 chiseled copper, 4 chiseled tuff.
- Zombie: 1 copper, 4 chiseled copper, 4 mossy cobblestone.
- Husk: 1 copper, 4 chiseled copper, 4 chiseled sandstone.
- Spider: 1 copper, 4 chiseled copper, some with cobwebs on top.
- Slime: 1 copper, 4 chiseled copper, 4 moss blocks.
- Silverfish: 1 copper, 4 chiseled copper, 4 stone bricks.
- Baby Zombie: 1 copper, 4 chiseled copper, 2 cobblestone, 2 mossy cobblestone.
- Cave Spider: 1 copper, 4 chiseled copper, some with cobwebs and mushrooms.
- Stray: 1 copper, 4 chiseled copper, 4 packed ice.
- Skeleton: 1 copper, 4 chiseled copper, 4 bone blocks.
- Bogged: 1 copper, 4 chiseled copper, mushrooms, and bone blocks.
Trial spawners make mobs every 1 to 8 seconds and can stop after a set number.
Meet the Breeze
The Breeze is a tough new enemy found only in Trial Chambers. Here’s what you need to know to beat it:
- Abilities: The Breeze attacks with wind blasts that hurt and push players away. It can also activate buttons, levers, and trapdoors, setting off traps.
- Movement: The Breeze moves fast, jumping up to 15 blocks sideways and 5 blocks up. Keep moving to avoid being trapped.
- Combat Tips: Use a shield to block its attacks, stay active to dodge, and use swords to fight. Having friends along can help—more players mean more enemies and more rewards.
