  • Pillagers now have quick charge III and multishot crossbows, and skeletons power II bows.
  • Spiders are really fast, create cobwebs on first-time player collision and on death.
  • The creaking does a lot of damage compared to vanilla, which makes it much more similar to the Warden.
  • Phantoms are now a literal nightmare.

  • They are overpowered enemies that have much more life and show cool particles.
  • Drop Powerful Relics, which can be used to temporally get maximum energy.

Tips & Tricks to Survive more than a day!

RECOMMENDED IF YOU HAVE TROUBLES ON THE FIRST DAY!

  • Every minute is useful.
  • Stay away from the caves close to you and anywhere dark a mob could spawn.
  • Avoid the underground until you are really well protected with the armor you can get.
  • Go to Ancient Cities and try to find Life Lights on chests to recover health. Trial Chambers and Treasure Bastions are also an option, however they have more hostile mobs.
  • Craft torches in campfires with sticks to light up the place.
  • Defeat Powerful Mobs to have maximum energy for a period of time.
  • Always sleep; a single phantom can be deadly if unprepared.
  • Settle in ocean, or biomes with fewer hostile mobs.
  • Totems of Undying are and will be your best friend.
