Sunken City

Eye of Abyss

Estimated reading: 3 minutes

The Eye of Abyss is a crucial navigation tool in L_Ender’s Cataclysm mod, serving as the primary means of locating the elusive Sunken City structures hidden within the deep ocean biomes of the game. This unique item functions similarly to Eyes of Ender, guiding players in the direction of one of the mod’s most challenging and rewarding dungeon experiences.

The Eye of Abyss is unique among structure-finding items in Minecraft because it specifically seeks out the expansive underwater complexes that contain the formidable Leviathan boss and a variety of valuable resources. This item plays a vital role in progressing through the mod’s aquatic content, helping players transition from surface exploration to deep-sea adventures.


Functionality

When thrown, the Eye of Abyss acts like an Eye of Ender, soaring through the air toward the nearest Sunken City structure before going on cooldown. Players can use the same Eye of Abyss repeatedly to track their progress toward the target location, making it a reusable navigation tool unlike its vanilla counterpart.

The item does not break when thrown, ensuring that players can rely on a single Eye throughout their search. The directional guidance from the Eye of Abyss is especially useful due to the rarity and remote locations of Sunken City structures. These large underwater complexes are seldom found in deep ocean biomes, often necessitating extensive exploration to locate them through traditional methods.


Crafting

The Eye of Abyss is a crucial navigation tool that players must craft using a range of valuable materials. Compared to other eyes found within the Cataclysm mod, the Eye of Abyss is one of the easier ones to obtain.

This crafting process ensures that accessing the Sunken City structures becomes a meaningful milestone in player progression. It requires 4 Obsidian, 4 Crying Obsidian, and an Eye of Ender. Only one Eye of Abyss needs to be crafted.


Structure: The Sunken City

Upon following the Eye of Abyss to its destination, players will discover a majestic dome structure on the ocean horizon, which marks the location of a Sunken City. These enormous underwater complexes are among the most significant constructions in the mod, featuring multiple distinct areas, including entrance chambers, ore deposit sections, prison areas, boss arenas, and library spaces.

The structures contain extensive deposits of aquatic blocks, treasure chests filled with dungeon and shipwreck-themed loot, and the crucial Altar of Amethyst. The Sunken City serves as home to numerous hostile Deepling variants, each presenting unique combat challenges and valuable drop rewards.

The Leviathan Resides in the Sunken City

Players will encounter generic Deeplings, Deepling Brutes, Deepling Anglers, Deepling Priests, and Deepling Warlocks, along with larger creatures like Coralssus and various coral-based entities.

In addition to the immediate rewards, the Sunken City serves as the entry point to one of the mod’s most difficult boss encounters. The battle against the Leviathan demands thorough preparation and specialized equipment, making the discovery of this location, aided by the Eye of Abyss, a significant milestone in player progression.
