Template:Infobox biome A dark forest or roofed forest is a forested Minecraft:biome with dense leaf canopies that block sunlight, allowing hostile Minecraft:mobs to spawn and hide from the sun during daytime. Dark Forests are one of the two biomes that Woodland Mansions can generate in.
Description
Dark forests feature a much higher density of trees compared to other forest biomes, which oftentimes blocks direct view of the sky entirely. Minecraft:Oak, Minecraft:dark oak, and sometimes Minecraft:birch trees generate in these biomes, with leaf litter frequently lying beneath the trees. It is the only place where dark oak trees naturally generate. Minecraft:Bee nests are not generated with trees. Additionally, both types of Minecraft:huge mushrooms generate among the trees, though the red variants are more common. Unlike regular forests, wolves do not spawn in dark forests.
Unique to dark forests (and Minecraft:pale gardens) are Minecraft:woodland mansions, enormous dungeon-like structures that rarely generate within the trees. Woodland mansions are home to the dangerous Minecraft:illager mobs and are one of the only places where said mobs spawn. Mansions contain various rooms and valuable loot.
The dark forest has a unique sky color and atmospheric effects with Minecraft:Vibrant Visuals, which is slightly more gray and faded than other biomes.
Survival in dark forests may be more challenging than in other grassy biomes, as the dense shade provided by the dark oak trees allows hostile mobs to persist even throughout daytime. However, the biome offers plenty of Minecraft:logs, even more so than regular forests.
Dark forests generate in areas with medium temperature and very high Minecraft:humidity values and are usually bordered by Minecraft:birch forests, but they can also border Minecraft:jungles. Dark forests border Minecraft:old growth taigas but usually not regular Minecraft:taigas.
At higher elevations, dark forests give way to pale gardens, Minecraft:groves, Minecraft:jagged peaks and Minecraft:frozen peaks. In coastal areas they border regular Minecraft:oceans.
Due to their very high humidity value, dark forests almost always to have Minecraft:lush caves generate below them, unless very far inland.
