How to Raid the Ancient City in Minecraft
Raiding the Ancient city, similarly to raiding the Nether Bastion tofind the netherite upgrade in Minecraft, is definitely not easy. However, it doesn’t have to be hard either. There are two ways to raid an Ancient city in Minecraft:intended wayandbrute-forcing way. So, let’s have a look at those and see which one is better for you at finding the Silence armor trim in Minecraft 1.20.
Intended But Slower Way
This way requires you to be patient. It is the way the developers intended for you to approach this structure. This implies you don’t spawn the warden at all, and if you do, just avoid it. You will besneaking aroundthe Ancient City and opening chests the entire time. Also, you need to“deactivate” the sculk shriekersby either blocking the sculk sensors with wool or breaking the isolated sculk shriekers.
If you trigger a shrieker three times, wait for a bit to recharge your opportunities without penalties. Every 10 minutes, you will be able to trigger a shrieker without consequences. You can enable the subtitles in the Music and Sound tab in Options. This will help you determine exactly when the warden will spawn. If it says “Warden draws close” after triggering a shrieker, the next activation will summon the mob.
Brute-force But Faster Way
This implies you don’t need to go the intended route, but brute force your way through the Ancient city.You can be running around,gathering as much loot as possiblefrom the chests andflying away to safetywith yourelytra in Minecraft. Repeat this process in the parts of the structure that don’t have the warden spawned yet. You can also apply the same flying in and out tactics and break as many shriekers as you can.
Eventually with this method, there will be a bunch of wardens patrolling through the corridors of the city, so it will become harder to loot the chests. Not only that, but flying and not seeing anything is not really a good combination. Although this way of raiding the Ancient city is much faster than the intended one, it’s also more dangerous, so it can be rather fun as well. If your goal isdefeat the warden, check out the linked guide.
Feel free to choose one of these that suit you most or even try inventing your own way of raiding the Ancient city. Unfortunately, according to our testing, you’ll probably need to explore at least a couple of these structures before finding the silence armor trim in Minecraft 1.20.
