Eternal Nether for Minecraft

Review Eternal Nether

In vanilla Minecraft, there are several dimensions that players travel between: the Overworld, the End, and the Nether. And if at the beginning you do not have time to go there, and you spend most of your time only in the main biomes, then over time you begin to visit the Nether more often, since there are useful resources there (Netherite, ghast tears, blaze rods, and many others), as well as more activities (fighting mobs and bosses, gathering resources, creating full-fledged farms, and much more). But over time, even the Nether starts to bore players, and this is where third-party mods come to the rescue, with the help of which you can literally diversify the dimension in just a couple of clicks and add more interesting content that immerses you headfirst in a new gameplay experience.

The Eternal Nether modification will add several new structures to the game (the Citadel, the Piglin Manor, and the Catacombs), new mobs, as well as valuable loot, so players will have additional motivation to visit such places in order to get even more resources or artifacts, fight various creatures, and simply diversify the usual gameplay. This is one of the most interesting mods in this category, and it has serious potential both for single-player survival and for installation on a multiplayer project if you need to diversify content for users on your server. Shall we try it?

The main focus here is on the new structures that become available to you after installing the mod. And they are really cool and greatly change the overall gameplay. An interesting implementation of buildings, a lot of new mobs, thoughtful and balanced loot, bars behind which there may be neutral creatures, and many more cool things and new features. In this material, we briefly reviewed all the structures added in this mod. You can evaluate their appearance, the presence of mobs, various loot, and other features. And there are actually a lot of them here. Moreover, if desired, players can teleport to any added location if they have access to Creative mode. We listed all the commands so that you can quickly move to them.

Piglin Manor

The Piglin Manor is a separate location in the Nether that will be generated mainly in the Crimson Forest. The huge mansion is surrounded on all sides by blocks, and most often by netherrack. Quite often, finding this structure is not so easy, since it is hidden in the depths of the Nether, so you have to follow sounds, try to calculate it approximately by coordinates, or use commands to teleport quickly. If you want to quickly get to the manor, you need to enter /locate structure eternalnether:piglin_manor in Creative mode. The nearest mansion will be shown. But even after teleporting, you often need to switch to Spectator mode to see the full building.

The manor usually has one central entrance, near which mobs stand guarding it. These are piglins of different types, and they will immediately attack you if they see you. The manor is surrounded by blocks on all sides, so you will not be able to escape quickly from here. Inside there are several levels (usually 2-3), and on some of them you will see chests with loot. It is not especially valuable, but it is still nice to get something when looting such structures. On the first floor, you will see magma cubes sitting there like guard dogs. In general, there are many interesting design solutions here, and this manor looks pretty good. In some locations, you will even be able to find bells that many players hunt for.

Citadel

The next structure on our list is the Citadel. An interesting structure that you will find in the Warped Forest. Now players will have additional motivation to visit such places in the Nether. It is a kind of ancient outpost, where there will be many different levels and passages, although the object itself is not particularly large. Inside, you will see new mobs (warped endermen, resembling endermen, but only differing in color). They will attack players, so be careful when visiting such structures in Minecraft. The upper part of the structure is a little similar to structures in the End when you are searching for Elytra.

There are a little more resources in the Citadel than in the Piglin Manor, but it is much harder to find this structure. Moreover, endermites can also move quickly, and for players this is a serious problem. You need to bring good enchanted armor and potions with you in order to resist these creatures. Inside the Citadel, you will find many boxes containing more valuable loot. They are located chaotically throughout all the rooms. Sometimes there are 1 or 2, but most often there are more. In Creative mode, the command /locate structure eternalnether:citadel is available for quickly moving to this location. If you have access to this mode, it is best to use it this way. But even so, you often have to switch to Spectator mode to understand where the entrance is.

Catacombs

In the Catacombs, you will find a large number of rooms connected to each other by round spheres. They are surrounded on all sides by blocks, but there are places from which you can get inside. Different types of skeletons will spawn here, both with armor and with shields and weapons, and they can attack in groups or alone. It is an interesting structure that differs from all the others in its length and shapes. Inside, you will see large pits with lava, and if you fall into them, you will take additional damage. And with such a number of hostile mobs, this is quite likely. They surround the entire structure inside, no matter on which floor the player ends up.

Since several spheres are connected to each other, there will be corridors, climbs, and different levels here. And skeletons spawn everywhere. As soon as they detect players, they immediately begin to attack. Mostly without armor, but for the most part these are modified creatures added in this mod. And it is not so easy to resist them. In the screenshots, you can see what loot is available in these structures. Overall, it is not bad, although it is better to come here mainly for the adventure, since the main reward is not worth it. Although players inside can even find Netherite. In Creative mode, use the command /locate structure eternalnether:catacomb to quickly teleport to this location.

New mobs

We mentioned the new creatures only indirectly, indicating which group they belong to, but in fact each type here has its own specific features.

· Piglin hunters. They use various types of shields and trophies from kills. Outwardly, they do not look that threatening, but you can also get additional loot from them or even make farms for yourself;

· Piglin prisoners. You can save the mobs to receive an unbreakable Netherite shield. To free them, you will have to use gold or a Netherite bell. This is a small gameplay addition so that players have motivation to visit new dungeons and structures;

· Warped endermen. They attack immediately upon the player’s first appearance, so it is best to attack them with ranged weapons and one by one;

· Skeleton knights, wither skeletons, ghosts, vexes, and corpors. These are new mobs in Minecraft that are added specifically with this mod. All of them will be in the dark halls of the Nether.

As you can see, for each mob you need to use your own specific battle tactics, but in any case the player will have to take good enchanted armor with them, definitely potions for restoring health and dealing additional damage to enemies, and preferably also the “Night Vision” effect in order to see well in the Nether. It is quite difficult to cope against all mobs alone, since they usually attack in groups if they see an enemy. In this case, you can box yourself in with blocks, and this will give you the opportunity to restore HP, quickly take out some items, or go AFK if required.

New items and artifacts

The Eternal Nether modification will also give players additional items that were previously not in the vanilla version of Minecraft. And each of them is used for certain situations:

· Netherite bell – used as an artifact to free piglins imprisoned in the dungeons located in the new structures. These creatures will give you additional items if you rescue them;

· Saber – a new weapon in the game that can block damage. An excellent option for fighting both vanilla creatures and the new ones from this add-on;

· Netherite shield – a unique shield in the game that does not break with long use and cannot be destroyed by any mob attacks. You will also be able to additionally add various enchantments to it;

· Music disc “Wither Waltz”. This is more suitable for collectors who collect discs in the game. Now there will be another rather rare option for you;

· Warped Ender Pearl. An improved version of the item with which you can teleport a certain distance while also gaining full fire resistance, slow falling, and that is far from all the options.

There are many possibilities, and the mod developer periodically updates it and adds some unique options. If you need to diversify the Nether in Minecraft, then the Eternal Nether modification is perfect for these purposes. Despite the relatively small number of new structures, there are many different artifacts and mobs here with which you will constantly have to interact. This encourages players to move through the Nether more often, fight various creatures, collect new items, and immediately use them. In the screenshots, we tried to show all the main aspects and innovations of this add-on, however, this is not all that will be available to you. Be sure to try it and see how your gameplay in the Nether changes.
