![]() Iron or higher tier armor may be needed when exploring caves, so as to give the player better protection against mobs. Armor - As said before, lots of mobs spawn in caverns because of the low light level.It is recommended the player bring weapons such as swords, axes, or bows to fight off said mobs. Weapons - Because of a cave's low light level, mobs such as zombies, spiders, skeletons, creepers, and possibly other aggressive mobs will spawn on the dark areas of the cave, making exploration dangerous.These are some of the recommended items the player should bring with themselves into caves. This can easily lead the player to dungeons or caves. Cartograph Use 3rd party software (such as cartograph) to make maps of caves. The Nether Traveling to the Nether, going down roughly 20 to 30 blocks, along by at least 16 blocks, and creating a new portal will likely cause the new Overworld portal to spawn in a cave since a portal is spawned in the nearest suitable space for the portal. ![]() ![]() Since pistons don't extend if there are 13+ blocks ahead of them, you can use pistons to find caves. Piston Dig down, place a piston and power it. It's also useful to follow sound of water and lava. Listening By following the source of ambience, or the sound of mobs coming from underground, there is a great chance to find a cave. Make sure to look out for dripping water or lava above you as it may hint at an aquifer or a lava lake. A diagonal tunnel (downward staircase) takes 3 times as long to dig, but is much safer and can be traversed both ways. Choosing a random location and digging a tunnel straight down will intersect a cave system roughly 40% the time, but is not recommended since mining straight down may cause the player to fall in lava, a deep underground cave, or a cave system full of mobs. Digging Digging around might uncover caves, but it is not easy as the map is (very) large. Surface aquifers may indicate the location of a potentially-expansive cave system, and azalea trees will guarantee a lush cave below. Getting lost in a cavern can be very dangerous, since getting lost in a cavern for too long may easily drain your hunger, saturation, weapon and armor durability, leaving you hungry and vulnerable to attacks, both of which could cause your death.Įxploring surface By exploring the surface of the map, there is a good chance that an exposed cave will be found. ![]() However, if these valuables are from the cavern itself, make sure to have a chest to put them in.Ĭaves are huge and can have numerous intersecting tunnels, making them easy to get lost in. Leave all valuables back in a safe place on the surface. One should never go into a cavern without a good supply of any lighting and weapons. Because they mostly lack illumination, they will often have groups of hostile mobs like skeletons, zombies, spiders and etc. Caves are not ravines but will often lead into them. They are often very deep and can go from the surface all the way to bedrock. Most caves have tunnels branching off as catacombs and winding in all sorts of directions. Caves or caverns are naturally-formed cavities in the Overworld and less prominently, the Nether. ![]()
