Trident Trial Monument

The Trident Trial Monument is an underwater trial structure added by Dungeons and Taverns. It is built from several stages joined by bridges: drowned and guardian rooms, an elder guardian boss room, and a vault that holds the structure's chests. Its spawners are trial spawners, and its vaults are opened with trial keys. Its vault chests can hold a Heart of the Sea or a Trident.

Generation

The monument generates in the Overworld, only in deep ocean biomes and in the Skylands biomes. Its biome list is: Deep Ocean, Deep Cold Ocean, Deep Lukewarm Ocean, Deep Frozen Ocean, Hyacinth Deeps, Deep Warm Ocean, and the Spring, Autumn, Summer and Winter variants of the Skylands. It uses random spread placement with an in-game spacing of 576 chunks and a separation of 547 chunks. That spacing is far wider than the mod's default, so the monument is rare. In a 26 km² sample of the pack's world, no monument was found.

The structure is not one of the horror structures that the pack places closer together. It is placed by the pack's standard structure rules and can be skipped where it would overlap a larger structure from another set. Because it sits in ocean and sky biomes, most of the structure is underwater.

Layout

The monument is a jigsaw structure with a depth of 9 pieces. Its main body is built from stacked layers, each tied to one stage of the trial. From the bottom up, the stages are the conduit stage, the drowned stage, the elder guardian stage and the vault stage. Each stage has its own rooms, floor and ceiling decoration, and pillars.

• Entry bridges: the structure connects to the terrain by one of several bridges. Some are short entry bridges, some are long, and one is named as a fake bridge.
• Conduit stage: a series of curved, straight and high rooms, with doors and walls between them. This is the first stage of the trial.
• Drowned stage: arches, pillars and rooms with many floor and ceiling decorations. Its trial spawners are placed in the rooms.
• Elder guardian stage: floor decorations and a row of guardian spawners, with a large elder guardian room.
• Vault stage: one-by-one and one-by-two rooms joined by lifts and doors. The vaults are reached through these rooms.
• Small monument: a smaller version of the structure. Its rooms contain trial spawners, magma vents and bubble vents, and its stairs lead between them.

Hostile mobs do not spawn naturally inside the structure's bounding box, so the hostile mobs in the monument come from its placed mobs and spawners.

Inhabitants

The monument places drowned, guardians and elder guardians. These mobs come from the trial spawners, which are set up as follows:

• Drowned spawners: a standard drowned spawner and a drowned swarm spawner. The swarm spawner puts more drowned into the room at once.
• Guardian spawners: a corner spawner and several guardian spawners in the elder guardian stage.
• Boss spawner: an elder guardian spawner with boss behaviour. Its reward table is the Trident Trial Boss Key.

Mobs from the spawners can wear armour from the structure's equipment table. The equipment includes chainmail helmets and chestplates, a turtle helmet, a diamond chestplate, an iron axe and tridents, and the pieces are enchanted at random.

Loot

The structure's chests are in the vault stage. There are three of them:

• Boss vault (heart): always contains a Heart of the Sea, along with blocks of copper, diamond, gold, iron and emerald and a small chance of ink and scrolls.
• Boss vault (trident): always contains a Trident, along with a similar set of blocks, ink, scrolls and a small chance of a blank runestone.
• Common vault: holds potions, enchanted books, sponges, cooked cod, diamonds, gold ingots and blocks, plus ink and arcane essence.

The chest tables are listed below. The Heart of the Sea and the Trident are guaranteed in their boss vaults. The common vault is the more reliable source of potions and enchanted books.

Trial spawners have their own reward tables. The ominous versions of the spawners give better rewards than the normal ones. The normal drowned spawner gives cooked salmon and potions, while the ominous one adds golden apples, emeralds and gold ingots. The elder guardian spawner gives copper, emeralds and iron and emerald blocks, and its ominous version can give a Heart of the Sea. The small monument spawner gives nautilus shells in both forms.

The structure also has its own keys and map. The Trident Trial Key is a vanilla trial key with a custom name, and the Trident Trial Boss Key is a vanilla ominous trial key with a custom name. The Trident Trial Monument map is an exploration map that points to the structure.

Tips

Expect to be underwater for most of the structure, so bring a way to breathe. The Trident Trial Monument map is an exploration map and shows the structure's location. The advancement "Breathtaking" is earned by entering the structure. The Trident Trial Key and the Trident Trial Boss Key are the two keys that the structure uses, so keep them for the vaults.
