Probably Chests Mod — Guide
Chest Variants
The mod adds nine unique chest types that generate naturally across the world. Each chest is designed to match the atmosphere of its respective biome or dimension. Some chests, like the Gold and Void variants, are locked by default and require specific keys to open.
| Chest Type | Primary Location | Special Properties |
|---|---|---|
| Normal Chest | Caves & Temperate Biomes | Standard loot; can be a Mimic. |
| Stone (Deepslate) Chest | Deepslate layers (Y < 0) | Found in deep underground caverns. |
| Sandstone (Rocky) Chest | Deserts & Badlands | Themed for arid environments. |
| Lush Chest | Lush Caves | Decorated with moss and vegetation. |
| Ice Chest | Snowy & Frozen Biomes | Emits a low level of light. |
| Coral Chest | Oceans & Coral Reefs | Emits light underwater. |
| Molten Chest | The Nether | Fire-resistant; emits low light. |
| Void Chest | The End | Locked by default; requires a Void Key. |
| Gold Chest | Various Structures | Locked by default; contains high-tier loot. |
Pet Mimics
One of the most unique features of the mod is the ability to tame Mimics. Once tamed, a Mimic becomes a loyal companion that follows the player and provides mobile storage.
Taming and Care
- Taming: Use a Friendly Key on a Wild Mimic to tame it.
- Storage: A Pet Mimic has the inventory capacity of a double chest (54 slots) despite its small size.
- Combat: Tamed Mimics will fight alongside their owner, attacking hostile mobs like a wolf.
- Healing: You can heal your Pet Mimic by feeding it any type of meat.
- Sitting: Right-clicking a Pet Mimic while sneaking will make it stay in place.
Management
- Mimic Hand Bell: This tool is used to manage multiple mimics. It can be used to mark mimics or abandon them near an amethyst cluster if they are no longer needed.
- Locking: Pet Mimics can be locked to prevent other players from accessing their inventory. A locked Pet Mimic will bite anyone who is not its owner.
Intriguing Pots
In addition to chests, the mod adds smashable Pots to the world generation. These pots are found in caves and various biomes and can be broken to obtain quick supplies.
- Variants: Normal, Lush, Sandstone, and Molten.
- Common Loot: Torches, coal, iron nuggets, gold nuggets, and arrows.
- Utility: They provide a reliable source of basic caving supplies without requiring the player to find a full loot chest.
