Mod Showcase

Exploring the oceans on your own Minecraft server opens the door of possibilities with the YUNG’s Better Ocean Monuments mod for Forge or Fabric. The only downside is that this structure is extremely challenging to find without cheats or operator permissions. Unfortunately, this cannot be changed – meaning you and others must find it in-game. Rather than searching for hours, using the /locate command with correct permissions is another method. Regardless of how you discover this new and improved ocean monument in Minecraft, there are many features to keep in mind.
Larger Monument Design
One of the many aspects of the YUNG’s Better Ocean Monuments mod for Forge or Fabric is the size of its amplified structure. When players encounter such a behemoth, they’ll be shocked! There are many entrances into the monument, with a wide variety of features surrounding them. There are sea lantern posts leading players to the main entry, with an assortment of guardians swimming around. Avoid getting damaged by these hostile mobs, as they pack a punch.

New Monument Rooms

While inside of the new monument structure in Minecraft, there will be an endless amount of rooms – well not infinite. These range from small to large rooms, with entries leading to other areas. One such example is finding drip stone hanging from the ceiling and growing from the ground. It’s easy to get lost in this monument, so make sure to navigate properly. Otherwise, you might succumb to the guardians and/or lose too much air.
Other locations inside of the monument include large structures with its center offering players a trident. Alternatively, there might be an elder guardian instead. Swarms of these creatures will roam these rooms, especially when you’re deep inside of the buildings. Mining might be impossible due to the guardian’s effect, so ensure you know where the exit is to escape death. Beyond this, you and other players alike will find different rooms full of sponges and more.

Extra Monument Mobs

As previously mentioned above, there are tons of guardians in these monuments. This is amplified with the YUNG’s Better Ocean Monument mod, as the structure is 3x larger! In other words, almost everywhere you swim inside or outside, there will be swarms of guardians that will hunt you down. Rest assured, there is still a normal amount of elder guardians in these monuments. However, reaching them is a challenge due to the number of other mobs in the area.
Better Monument Loot
In some of the rooms found in ocean monuments, there will be hidden gold blocks behind certain blocks. Reaching them requires the mining fatigue effect to be removed, which is possible by slaying the elder guardians. Doing this is your best bet to loot the monument, but can take time – so grab friends along the way! Additionally, nearby wet sponges can be found too. These blocks are exclusively found here, so grab them while you can.

Modded Minecraft Server Hosting
Hosting your own Minecraft Forge or Fabric servers opens the door for all sorts of new features. One of them is YUNG’s Better Ocean Monuments, improving these mysterious structures for players. Getting friends to begin searching for these and looting them is an adventure unlike any other! You must manage your air and strategically slay the elder guardian to begin mining for gold. However, there are other items too – such as tridents, sponges, and even heart of the seas. Start today and embark on this oceanic journey on your own modded Minecraft server!
FAQ – YUNG’s Better Ocean Monuments
This mod is available for both Forge and Fabric 1.18.2 to 1.20.4, with planned updates ahead.
Yes! Forge versions require the YUNG’s API mod, while Fabric needs YUNG’s API, Fabric API, and Cloth Config API. Without installing these dependencies, finding improved ocean monuments is impossible in Minecraft.
This problem can be solved by generating a new world or exploring far enough to load newer chunks. New maps are the easiest way to get started, but searching far and wide is also possible.
