Generated Structures
Naturally-generated buildings, dungeons and ruins scattered across the world. Each has its own loot table and unique inhabitants.
Why look for structures?
Structures fast-track your progression. Villages give you instant access to villager trading, ocean monuments hide sponges and gold, and the only natural End Portal lives inside a Stronghold.
