After stumbling upon a dark underground city, you find out that it is an Ancient City! Wait, don’t go inside yet. You need to know somethings before you can go because you will encounter a Warden– a mob that will easily ruin your progress of the world if you don’t have enough gear or aren’t prepared.

Things You Need

Here are some things you are sure to need. Items near the top are prioritized, but you still need all of them!

• At least 5 stacks of wool.
  You will definitely need wool. As sculk shriekers cannot detect wool being placed, walking normally on it, and other. When you explore ancient cities place wool wherever you go.
• Strong armor/Weapons
  You will need strong armor in case if you aren’t careful enough and a Warden spawns. Netherite armor (protection 3+) is recommended, and you can possibly die without strong armor. You will need weapons such as bows, crossbows, and swords to defend yourself. Note that knockback does not work on wardens.
• Elytra.
  You’ll need an elytra for quick getaway in the case of a Warden spawning. If it does, use your elytra and fly to safety in a WOOL made (stuck to the roof best choice) building.
• A trap.
  A trap, (2×2) with trapdoors at the edges is great. The warden can easily run into the trap and fall into a pit, enough to make your getaway on your elytra!
• Potions & Golden Apples
  If a warden spawns, you need to prepare yourself! A warden has long and short range attacks. Make sure you have things to heal you before it kills you.
• Snowballs.
  Snowballs are essential because they can distract the warden for a second– enough to make your getaway on your elytra.
