Nether Cities

Biomes	Hell
Type	Village
Size	Large
Mobs	Armored Pigman

Nether Cities are structures generated by the Better Dungeons mod. Armored Pigmen, which are fairly different from the normal Zombie Pigman, can be found in this dungeon.

Structures

Nether Cities boast huge houses/apartments. There are several type of buildings such as blacksmiths, prison cells, apartments as well as the Boss Tower.

Blacksmith

Blacksmith buildings hold an assortment of loot, including minerals and tools.

Houses

Three story houses that come in different makes and models. Some contain trap rooms, balconies, paintings, or different-colored wools.

Prisons

These prison cells have chests containing armor and weapons. You may find Pigman trapped in cells made of Nether brick fences and Nether bricks.

Boss Tower

These are four story buildings that hold two PigMage s and randomly spawning pigmen.

Huts

Very small, one-story buildings that contain Soul Sand and Netherwart on the porch. These Huts may contain a chest with several items.

Enchanting Tower

This tower contains large open areas that have water and Lapis Lazuli blocks with an enchanting table on top.

Mine

Large open structure that contains rails, powered rails, activator rails, and a minecart.

Treasure Room

A two-story building containg many paintings, item frames including the loot placed inside of the frames.

Town Square

A mock-tree structure made out of obsidian and Glowstone.

Strategies and Battle Tactics

To clear out the city, one should expect to be overwhelmed unless equipped with protective diamond armor as all Pigmen turn hostile and simultaneously strike when provoked. The Pigman Healer will use a healing staff to support other Pigmen whilst the Pig mage uses magical attacks via Life steal effect and summons the undead to attack. Ranged weapons are recommended as a secondary to pick out shieldless enemies. A powerful melee weapon still works against all pigmens, however, as they are equipped with Iron, Gold and Diamond Armor.

Trivia

The buildings may contain beds. Attempting to sleep in said beds cause them to explode.
The Pigman have mini mines, containing rails and minecarts, which require parts from the Overworld.
Nether fortresses can intersect with Nether cities, causing them to merge.

-==Clearing the city==
-To clear the city it is highly recommended to have either enchanted Iron armor, Meterorite, or Diamond. The pigmen will attack you relentlessly. Using bows, spears, swords, and shields. The Pig healer will use a healing staff to heal his friends, and the Pig mage: Magic, Life steal, and summoning undead allies. It is recommended to use a bow or other projectile, however a melee weapon could work if you target archers and healers first.

-==Notes/Trivia==
+==Trivia==
+*The buildings may contain beds. Attempting to sleep in said beds cause them to explode.
-*There are many furnaces and dispensers that can only be crafted with cobblestone, unobtainable in the Nether. This lead to the assumption that pigmen evolved from pigs in the Overworld, and then moved to the Nether.
+*The Pigman have mini mines, containing rails and minecarts, which require parts from the Overworld.
-*The buildings may contain beds.  If you attempt to sleep in the Nether, the bed will explode.
+*Nether fortresses can intersect with Nether cities, causing them to merge.
-*The Pigman have "mines" that contain rails and minecarts. Which both require parts from the Overworld.
-*The pigman have paintings. Again, Overworld materials.
-*Because of spawning rules Nether cities may distort nether forteresses. Making them that much more difficult.
