|
|
'''Windswept hills''' are very uncommon [[biome]]s that mainly generate in hilly terrain. There are three variants in the biome family.
|
|
|
|
== Description ==
|
|
Windswept hills generate in areas with high [[Biome#Erosion|erosion]], high [[Biome#Weirdness|PV]] and high [[Biome#Continentalness|continentalness]], which means that the terrain is usually flat, but sometimes hilly and shattered. The cliffs of the windswept hills generally and peaks at roughly Y-level 140. Above Y=120±8, rainfall changes to [[snowfall]], and the hills becomes snow-capped, along with [[water]] freezing into [[ice]]. Despite windswept hill biomes being highland biomes, [[deep dark]] doesn't generate under windswept hills biomes.
|
|
|
|
The [[grass]] and [[leaves]] are an aqua color. These are the only biomes, besides [[mountain]] biomes, where [[emerald ore]] is found. Like [[mountain]]s, [[infested block]]s with [[silverfish]] can be generated underground below the sea level. [[Oak]] [[tree]]s and [[spruce]] trees occasionally generate here, with a bit of [[grass]], [[poppies]]{{only|java}} and [[dandelion]]s on the ground. [[Llama]]s can spawn in these biomes.
|
|
|
|
[[Survival]] in windswept hills can be challenging to beginners, due to the heights often risking heavy fall damage and higher elevations bringing snow and ice, but can be fairly easy once the player has acclimated to the area and found or made a flat-enough space for shelter. [[Llama]]s can also serve as useful pack animals when tamed. [[Water]] must be protected by light or a roof to prevent it from freezing when above the [[Biome#Precipitation|snowfall line]], however, and the [[player]] must be aware of their surroundings to avoid falling off steep cliffs, especially when fighting [[hostile mob]]s. Care should also be taken when mining in windswept hills, due to infested stone occasionally generating; the player might get swarmed with silverfish if they're not prepared.
