• A more powerful active phase of the Minecraft:Trial Spawner with unique challenges and rewards.

• If a Trial Spawner detects a player that has the Trial Omen effect, the spawner will become Ominous if:
  • It is not in cooldown.

    • Making it Ominous this way will bypass the cooldown.
  • While active, it will:
    • Glow blue instead of orange.
    • Emit soul flames instead of normal flames.
    • More commonly spawn mobs with equipment if they can wear it.
      • The equipment these mobs wear have Armor Trims applied from the Trial Chambers.

Minecraft:Ominous Vault

• A variant of Minecraft:Vaults that have a different texture and emit soul flames instead of normal flames.

• Trial Omen
  • A variant that Bad Omen can transform into if the player is within detection range of a Minecraft:Trial Spawner that is not Ominous.
  • The Trial Omen has a duration of 15 minutes multiplied by the transformed Bad Omen's level.
