Template:Message box Template:Article other Template:Infobox biome The sulfur caves is a cave Minecraft:biome consisting of Minecraft:sulfur and Minecraft:cinnabar blocks, where sulfur cubes and cave spiders spawn. Sulfur pools with potent sulfur on bottom generate here.

Generation

Sulfur caves generate underground at the same depth as lush caves and dripstone caves, although it is much smaller in size and more fragmented. Sulfur springs sometimes generate at the surface, indicating there are sulfur caves below.

The biome generates only at low weirdness values (≤ -0.45). This means that it commonly borders any other cave biome, and above-ground are usually mountains or plateaus, and never generates close to rivers, although it can generate under the ocean. However, if sulfur caves generate at higher erosion, there may also be more middle biomes, desert biomes, and shattered biomes.

Rarely, sulfur caves can generate above ground at weirdness values above 1.0, which occurs inside mountain rings.

Description

The main landscape is composed of Minecraft:sulfur and Minecraft:cinnabar layers in approximately same amount of blocks, with frequent sulfur pools possessing a unique acid-green color of Minecraft:water. Potent sulfur is found only on the bottom of these pools, creating noxious gas with white bubbles particles in and on top of the water. Nausea is inflicted to mobs and players when they come in contact with this noxious gas. The gas can be removed by destroying the potent sulfur under the water.

Other terrain blocks such as Minecraft:deepslate and Minecraft:stone variants generate between the sulfur and cinnabar, and glow lichen is noticeably more common.Template:Only

Ores rarely generate here, because sulfur and cinnabar replace most stone and deepslate blocks.

Mobs

The following mobs naturally spawn here:

Sounds

Music

Sulfur caves inherit the sound event used for dripstone caves music, and thus these tracks will play.
