Black Birch Forest
A dangerous biome where a squeaking creature lives among dense trees.
Sculk Deserts
Arid zones without trees for material production. Ancient portals are located around, allowing return to the normal world.
Wisterya Forest
A biome surrounded by rocks where trees are more beautiful and colorful than in other biomes.
Sculk Forest
A version of the sculk plains biome with more trees and fewer bones.
Building Materials
From the wood of new trees, various building blocks can be produced:
- Sculk Planks - basic building material

New Mobs
Sculk Creeper
Hides between blocks and explodes near the player unnoticed.
Sculk Skeleton
The bow in its hands repels and blinds whoever it hits. When killed, there's a chance the bow will drop.
Sculk Villager
A new trader with whom you can exchange items related to sculk and the ancient city. Using the advanced furnace as a workbench, you can trade sculkerite emeralds.
Advanced Furnace
A bucket of molten iron and a bucket of molten sculk are added to the first two slots, then the item for transformation is placed in the 3rd slot, and fuel is added under the 3rd slot. Regular versions of the two buckets and the transformed item are retrieved from the last two slots, as shown in the example above.
The advanced furnace helps elevate netherite items to the next level and makes gameplay easier when difficulties arise.
