Crypt

Crypt is an underground structure added by The Graveyard. It is one of the mod's horror structures and generates inside cave systems across the overworld, so a player is most likely to find one while exploring caves rather than on the surface. Each crypt is a maze of stone corridors and small rooms filled with undead and illager mobs, and its chests hold bone, cobwebs, enchanted books and iron. Entering a crypt grants the Into Darkness advancement.

Generation

Crypts generate only underground. The structure is placed by random spread with a spacing of 16 chunks, against a mod default of about 23 chunks; the mod's sparse-structure setting multiplies the default by 0.707. In a 26 km² sample of the world, 268 crypts were observed. The pack counts crypts among its horror structures, which are placed closer together than the mod's default spacing.

Each crypt is placed in one of 24 underground biomes. These include the cave biomes (diorite, andesite, granite, tuff, dripstone, lush, fungal, frosted, thermal, redstone and others), along with Infested Caves, Spider Nest, Underground Jungle, Glowing Grotto, Lost Caves, Deep Caves, Deep Dark and Ancient Delta. A crypt cannot generate in the open air, so the biome must allow underground generation at the chosen point.

The structure is not placed by the mod's usual surface terrain check. Instead, the mod picks a random height between Y −40 and Y −10 within the chunk and only places the crypt if the location is valid underground. Terrain is not reshaped around the structure, so a crypt does not sit on a visible surface feature.

Crypts are not to be confused with the crypts added by Dungeons and Taverns, which are a separate structure.

Layout

A crypt is built from modular pieces connected by a jigsaw. The structure starts with a single start room, and corridors, rooms, corners, stairs, libraries, a labyrinth and dead-end pieces are attached from there. The template set includes trap pieces and end pieces that close off passages. The overall footprint is about 138 by 41 by 138 blocks.

Crypt pieces are not waterlogged. A processor clears the waterlogged state of the blocks in a crypt so that water does not fill the structure.

Inhabitants

Crypts place both vanilla mobs and the mod's own illagers. The structure's mob list includes skeletons, wither skeletons, zombies and bats in its templates.

The mod also overrides the hostile spawns inside the crypt's bounding box, so the crypt's spawns come from its own list instead of the biome's normal monster list. The list has three entries:

The Graveyard Hordes event also uses the acolyte, corrupted pillager and corrupted vindicator, but hordes spawn across the overworld at night and are not tied to crypts.

Loot

The crypt's chests are filled from the crypt loot tables. The best items are:

• Enchanted books, which appear in about 27% of the crypt table's rolls.
• Iron ingots and dark iron ingots, each about 17%. Dark Iron is the mod's own metal and is used for its decorative and functional blocks.
• Amethyst shards and blocks of amethyst, at about 24% and 20%.
• Bone, which is guaranteed in every roll, and cobweb, which is also guaranteed.

Other chest tables in the same structure contain brewing ingredients such as ghast tears, magma cream and dragon's breath, as well as bone decorations and candles. The full tables are listed below.

Tips

Crypts are deep, so the most reliable way to find one is to explore caves at Y −40 to −10 in the biomes listed above. The entrance advancement, Into Darkness, is granted as soon as a player enters the structure's bounds, so it is a good first check that the structure has been found.

The corridors branch and the labyrinth and trap pieces make backtracking slow, so note the route in before going deep. The crypt's spawn list is replaced inside the structure, so the acolytes and illagers are the mobs to expect within its walls.

Most of the crypt's loot is bone, cobweb and common materials. The enchanted books and the iron and dark iron ingots are the most useful finds.
