Loot Towers and Towns for Starter Gear and Food

Tall towers and lively towns are scattered across the world. They are the fastest way to gear up before you take on dungeons or the Nether.

Raiding Towers Safely

1. Scout from a distance. Towers stand out on the horizon, so climb a hill and look around after you spawn.

2. Arrive in daylight with full health. The pack has eerie threats at every hour, so do not start a climb when you are already hurt.

3. Clear each floor before looting. Work your way up slowly. Check every chest for weapons, armor and food before you move higher.

4. Mark your way out. Place torches or blocks so you can retreat quickly if a fight goes badly.

Using Towns as a Base

1. Let the NPC defenders help you. Towns are guarded by helpful NPC defenders. Fighting near them is safer than fighting alone in the wild.

2. Stock up on food. The pack includes cooking from Farmer's Delight and NetherVinery. Gather crops and ingredients so you can cook hearty meals and drinks, which are much better than living on raw food.

3. Consider settling nearby. A guarded town makes a good first home while you build up supplies.

4. Watch for mob vote creatures. You may run into the Copper Golem, Glare, Moobloom or Iceologer while exploring. Observe each new creature carefully before you engage it.

Once you have decent gear and a food supply, you are ready to start automating with Create.
