Finding Dragon Variants in Crimson and Warped Forests

Nether forests host three distinct dragon breeds added to Archipelago Additions. Knowing which biome area to search helps you track down the exact companion you want without wasting supplies.

Searching Crimson Forests

1. Equip at least one piece of vanilla gold armor before entering a crimson forest so local Piglins ignore you while you hunt.

2. Scan the forest floor and clearings for Netherwings, which are dark Night Fury variants that make their homes here as well as in nearby basalt deltas.

3. Watch the open air around the giant crimson fungi for Screaming Nadder variants flying around in search of food.

Exploring Deep Warped Forests

1. Travel into a warped forest for terrain free of Piglins, keeping vanilla Ender Pearls or building blocks handy to cross steep gaps.

2. Look upward to spot more Screaming Nadder variants patrolling the skies.

3. Push deep inside the warped forest interior rather than staying along the outer biome borders.

4. Search the ground for dragon nests built deep in the woods—these belong to Burning Nightmares, a hot adaptation of the Monstrous Nightmare. Drink a vanilla Fire Resistance potion before approaching a nest so you can tame its owner safely.
