Gate Keeper Mod

Overview

The Gate Keeper mod adds a massive boss battle to the Deep Dark biome. Defeat the Gate Keeper to unlock a portal to a brand new dimension filled with sculk!

Features

  • Gate Keeper Boss: A 1000 HP Warden-like creature with glowing eyes and tentacles
  • Epic Boss Fight: Features a boss health bar, two combat phases, and multiple attacks
  • Skulk Dimension: A dark cave world full of sculk blocks and dangers
  • Skulk Sword: A powerful weapon dropped by the boss that shoots sonic booms
  • Ritual Summoning: Perform a ritual to summon the boss in the Deep Dark

How to Use

Summoning the Gate Keeper

  1. Travel to the Deep Dark biome (Ancient Cities area)
  2. Place sculk blocks in a circle around a Ritual Catalyst
  3. You need at least 8 sculk blocks nearby (sculk, sculk catalyst, sculk shrieker, or sculk sensor)
  4. Right-click the Ritual Catalyst to summon the Gate Keeper

Fighting the Boss

  • The Gate Keeper has a massive health bar at the top of your screen
  • Phase 1: The boss uses tentacle slams, sonic booms, and ground stomps
  • Phase 2: At 50% health, the boss becomes faster and more aggressive
  • Dodge the sonic boom attack by moving sideways
  • Watch out for the ground stomp - it breaks blocks and knocks you back!

Defeating the Boss

When the Gate Keeper dies:

  1. It drops the Skulk Sword (guaranteed)
  2. Bonus loot including sculk, diamonds, and netherite
  3. A portal to the Skulk Dimension spawns

Using the Skulk Sword

  • Right-click to shoot a powerful sonic boom (5 second cooldown)
  • Hits apply the Darkness effect to enemies
  • High damage output perfect for end-game combat

Entering the Skulk Dimension

  • Walk into the portal that spawns after defeating the boss
  • The dimension is dark and filled with sculk
  • More Wardens spawn here - be careful!
  • To return, walk through the portal again

Tips & Tricks

  • Bring plenty of healing items - this is a tough fight!
  • Wear your best armor (Netherite recommended)
  • Use ranged attacks when possible to avoid the tentacle slam
  • The sonic boom attack travels in a line - dodge sideways
  • Bring blocks to pillar up if needed
  • Fight in an open area so you have room to dodge

Known Limitations

  • The boss uses a giant model as placeholder visuals (custom Warden-like model not yet implemented)
  • The Skulk Dimension is a work in progress with basic generation
