Better Dungeons

The Better Dungeons is a mod which adds new dungeons and mobs, bosses, and items to Hexxit. Conquering one of these dungeons is very rewarding as they hold chests filled with loot. However, there are monsters and traps in these dungeons, making them a challenge to complete. Most of the dungeons contain a boss, a significantly stronger mob within the dungeon which drops rare items.

There are 12 types of dungeons in the mod. Two of them are only available in Creative mode.
