Dripstone caves generate underground, generally in areas of high [[Minecraft:continentalness]]. This means they are often found far inland, and are essentially never found under [[Minecraft:ocean]] biomes or bordering a coast.

	Although inland areas often generate as dripstone caves, the continentalness requirement will rise in areas of high humidity due to the increasing likelihood of [[Minecraft:lush caves]] generating underground instead. Hence, biomes like [[Minecraft:dark forest]]s, [[Minecraft:old growth taiga]]s, [[Minecraft:bamboo jungle]]s, [[Minecraft:wooded badlands]], and [[Minecraft:taiga]]s will generate dripstone caves much less frequently.
