Settling in a Ruined City

Finding a Ruined City

Ruined Cities are larger variants of Moss Ruins, containing multiple small ruins clustered together. Use the same locate command to find structures:

`

/locate moss_ruins:moss_ruins

`

When you arrive at coordinates, explore the area—if you see several connected ruins instead of just one, you've found a Ruined City.

Using It as a Base

Ruined Cities are ideal for early-game bases because:

  • Multiple chests provide abundant loot spread across the site
  • Existing structures offer partial walls and roofs to build upon
  • Better loot quality, including potential iron finds

Clear out hostile mobs, secure the perimeter with torches, and use the existing ruins as a foundation. You can expand from here or repurpose the structures for storage, crafting, and sleeping areas.
