The nether monument is the most dangerous of the restyled variants. Expect a dark interior lit by fire and glowstone, with wither skeletons inside. The pack also adds custom architectural details inside, so the layout looks different from the overworld versions. You can find the structure standing over a vast lake of lava.
Preparing for the trip
- Fire Resistance potions are the most important item to bring. Between the lava lake below and the fire inside, one misstep can end the run.
- Blocks for bridging let you cross the lava safely and seal off dangerous drops.
- Good armor and a strong sword will help against wither skeletons. Bring milk to clear the Wither effect after a hit.
- Food and spare torches matter because the interior is dark outside the fire and glowstone.
Moving through the structure
1. Approach carefully. Build a safe path over the lava rather than parkouring across.
2. Light the entrance and fight wither skeletons in narrow spaces, where only one can reach you at a time.
3. Watch your footing near fire and around edges that drop toward the lava.
4. Take time to look at the custom interior details. They are unique to this variant, so don't assume it is laid out like the overworld monuments.
5. Mark your route with blocks or torches so you can retreat quickly if your potion runs low.
