The '''dripstone caves''' are an [[Overworld]] cave [[biome]] found in inland areas, filled with clusters and pillars of [[pointed dripstone]] and [[dripstone blocks]].
|
||
|
||
== Description ==
|
||
[[File:Large dripstone.png|thumb|x200px|A dripstone cluster.]]
|
||
Dripstone caves generate underground at any [[altitude]] beneath areas with high [[continentalness]] values, which means they are usually found far inland, and are essentially never found under [[ocean]] biomes or bordering a coast. While [[dark forest]]s, [[old growth taiga]]s, [[bamboo jungle]]s, [[wooded badlands]], and [[taiga]]s at temperatures of -0.450 and below are almost guaranteed to have [[lush caves]] under them, dripstone caves may generate under them instead of lush caves when they're far inland.
|
||
|
||
[[Dripstone block]]s and [[pointed dripstone]] both hanging as stalactites and growing from the ground as stalagmites, small [[water]] wells of 1×1 blocks are generated in the ground. They mostly appear like regular caves, except with patches of dripstone blocks and pointed dripstone. Large [[dripstone cluster]]s structures generate occasionally inside ravines. This biome also generates larger copper ore [[ore (feature)|blobs]] compared to other biomes. {{IN|java|}}, [[drowned]] are able to spawn in aquifers.
|
||
|
||
When exposed to the surface, the surface is made entirely out of stone with occasional patches of dripstone.
