Vaults and Keys are two locked reward containers, the Bone Vault and the Cinderous Vault, together with the keys that open them and the item that summons a boss. They are added by Iron's Spells 'n Spellbooks, and they are the only source of the rewards inside them. The Bone Vault sits in the throne room of the Catacombs and opens with the Bone Key. The Cinderous Vault sits in the Citadel and opens with the Decrepit Key. Each key is dropped by a boss, so a vault's reward is only available after that boss has been defeated.
The Cinderous Soulcaller is a crafted item that calls the Echo of Tyros to a fight near a Cinderous Soul Rune. It is the only item on this page that can be crafted.
Obtaining
Bone Key
The Dead King drops a Bone Key from its per-player loot table, so each player who receives the drop gets one key. The Bone Key stacks to 64.
Decrepit Key
The Echo of Tyros drops a Decrepit Key from its per-player loot table. The drop has no random chance and is always rolled once. The Decrepit Key also stacks to 64.
Neither key appears in any chest loot table, and neither can be crafted.
Vaults
The Bone Vault is generated as the vault block in the throne room of the Catacombs. The Cinderous Vault is generated from a vault pool in the Citadel. Both structures are overworld structures with the following placement values, given as spacing and separation in chunks:
Crafting
The Cinderous Soulcaller is the only item on this page that can be crafted. Its recipe is shown below.
Usage
Vaults
Both vaults use the vanilla vault mechanics. The mod adds them to the vanilla vault block-entity type. Each vault accepts exactly one key item: the Bone Vault takes the Bone Key, and the Cinderous Vault takes the Decrepit Key.
A vault becomes active when a player is within 4 blocks of it (activation range 4.0). It deactivates when no player is within 4.5 blocks. Creative players count for activation. The vault's block states are inactive, active, unlocking and ejecting. A vault is only unlocked by its own key, so keys cannot be used on the wrong vault.
The reward table for each vault is separate:
- Bone Vault uses the Catacombs loot table
dead_king_vault. Its rolls include a 25 percent chance of a basic curio item, a 50 percent chance of an Ancient Knowledge Fragment, three rolls on a pool of gold ingots, diamonds, magic cloth, arcane ingots and emeralds, a golden apple (with a 1 in 4 chance of an enchanted golden apple), two rolls on scrolls and blank runes, three rolls on reward ink, two rolls on blood vials (1 to 4 each), and a Dead King Phylactery Shard (1 to 3). - Cinderous Vault uses the Citadel loot table
citadel_vault.
Claiming and the Tincture of Forgetfulness
Each player can claim a vault's reward once. The Tincture of Forgetfulness removes a player's claim on a vault when it is used on that vault. The tincture works on any vault block, including vanilla trial vaults, and it is consumed on use. If the player has not yet claimed from that vault, the tincture has no effect.
Cinderous Soulcaller
Using the Cinderous Soulcaller starts an 80-tick cooldown (4 seconds). It summons the Echo of Tyros only when all of the following are true:
- A Cinderous Soul Rune is within 22 blocks of the player.
- The player is no more than 2 blocks below the rune's height.
- No Echo of Tyros is already fighting nearby.
If no Echo of Tyros is present and the conditions are met, the summon succeeds and plays the success toll. If the conditions are not met, the item plays the failure toll and shows one of two messages: "Nothing echoes back..." when no rune qualifies, or "An echo has already answered." when a fight is already in progress.
Items
Each item on this page is listed below, with the stats table generated from the game data.
- Bone Vault and Cinderous Vault are pickaxe-mineable blocks with hardness 50, blast resistance 50 and light level 6.
- Bone Key and Decrepit Key unlock their matching vault and stack to 64.
- Cinderous Soulcaller is the summoning item for the Echo of Tyros.
| Item | Stack | Hardness |
|---|---|---|
| Cinderous Soulcaller | 1 | |
| Decrepit Key | 64 | |
| Bone Key | 64 | |
| Bone Vault | 64 | 50 |
| Cinderous Vault | 64 | 50 |
Tips
- Collect the Bone Key from the Dead King before opening the Bone Vault. Each key is used only for its own vault.
- Keep the Tincture of Forgetfulness for trial vaults as well as the Bone and Cinderous vaults. It can be used on any vault block, so a player who has already claimed from a trial vault can claim from it again.
