Minecraft:Ominous Trial Spawner

Template:Infobox block

An ominous trial spawner is a Minecraft:trial spawner that has been altered by a Minecraft:Trial Omen effect carried by a Minecraft:player as part of an Minecraft:ominous trial. It spawns more dangerous mob waves, as well as Minecraft:ominous item spawners, but ejects better rewards and is the only source of ominous trial keys.

Obtaining

Breaking

No tool can accelerate the breaking process of an ominous trial spawner. Template:Breaking row Ominous trial spawners drop nothing when destroyed.

Ominous trial

Trial spawners convert to ominous trial spawners if a Minecraft:player with the Minecraft:Trial Omen effect enters the 14 block detection area and is in the line of sight of the Minecraft:trial spawner. This also happens when the player has the Minecraft:Bad Omen effect, which gets converted into Minecraft:Trial Omen. When a trial spawner becomes ominous, all of its existing mobs are despawned. If the spawner was on cooldown and was not ominous before going on cooldown, the cooldown is skipped when becoming ominous. The ominous trial spawner then immediately becomes active. An inactive ominous trial spawner converts back into a regular trial spawner after cooling down for 30 minutes.

Ominous trial spawners cannot be obtained as items in Minecraft:Survival or Minecraft:Adventure mode. They are technically block state variants of normal trial spawners and can be obtained or created using Minecraft:commands, such as:

Usage

An ominous trial spawner is similar to a normal trial spawner, but spawns more difficult Minecraft:mobs and ejects more powerful loot.

Mob spawning

Template:See also Ominous trial spawners converted from trial spawners that generate naturally in Minecraft:trial chambers spawn mobs with (better) weapons and wearing armor. Ominous trial spawners with mobs that are unable to wear equipment, such as Minecraft:spiders or Minecraft:silverfish, spawn double the total mob count over the course of the challenge. These spawners also allow an additional mob to be out all at once during their challenge.

Each armor set consists of only a Minecraft:chestplate and Minecraft:helmet with each piece having a 50% chance of being missing. All armor is enchanted with Minecraft:Fire Protection IV, Minecraft:Projectile Protection IV, andTemplate:Verify Minecraft:Protection IV. Template:IN<ref>Template:Bug</ref>, mobs don't drop the armor on death or upon conversion to a drowned In Java Edition. But it will drop when converted to drowned in Bedrock Edition. The armor is selected from:

Template:ItemLink with Template:ItemLink in Template:ItemLink (4 in 7)
Template:ItemLink with Template:ItemLink in copper (2 in 7)
Template:ItemLink with Template:ItemLink in copper (1 in 7).

Melee mobs spawn with a weapon selected from:

Template:ItemLink (4 in 7)
Template:ItemLink with Minecraft:Sharpness I (1 in 7)
Template:ItemLink with Minecraft:Knockback I (1 in 7)
Template:ItemLink (1 in 7).

Ranged mobs spawn with a Template:ItemLink with:

no enchantment (2 in 4)
Minecraft:Power I (1 in 4)
Minecraft:Punch I (1 in 4).

Ominous trial spawners converted from manually placed trial spawners continue to spawn the same mob as the trial spawner.

Projectile spawning

When at least one player is within the activation range of an ominous trial spawner, every 8 seconds it spawns Minecraft:ominous item spawners above any player or any mob that was spawned by the ominous trial spawner spawner within 14 blocks. The location where it should spawn is determined by first performing a raycast from the feet of the entity to a random height between 2 and 6 blocks above the entity. If it hits a block, this block is used, otherwise the end of the line is used. Which block can be hit is determined by the same algorithm as the 3rd person camera. The item spawns in the center of the block below it, unless the block has a collision box. The ominous item spawner displays a projectile for 3 to 6 seconds before shooting that projectile downwards.

Each ominous trial spawner has a set of 2 Minecraft:projectiles it spawns, one of which is a Minecraft:lingering potion. The lingering potion effect is selected randomly from one of the following (all with equal chance):

The second projectile is randomly selected from one of the following (again, all with equal chance):

Template:ItemLink
Template:ItemLink with Template:EffectLink (0:45)<ref name="arrow">Template:Bug</ref>
Template:ItemLink with Template:EffectLink IV (0:20)<ref name="arrow"/>
Template:ItemLink
Template:ItemLink

The potions and projectiles chosen will not change between trials and are based on location, so it is likely that spawners very close to each other will have the same projectiles.

Loot

Ominous trial spawners in Minecraft:trial chambers eject different, better, rewards compared to the non-ominous state.

Like a normal trial spawner, it ejects loot once for each detected player. Instead of trial keys, an ominous trial spawner has a 30% chance to eject Minecraft:ominous trial keys, in which case it drops for all players. The other 70% of the time it drops one of the other items for each player. Template:LootChest

Ominous trial spawners converted from manually placed trial spawners continue to drop the loot of a normal trial spawner (see Minecraft:Trial Spawner#Loot).
