Trial chambers[note 1] are uncommon underground structures that serve as a mid-game combat challenge.[1] They consist mostly of copper blocks and tuff bricks, and are the only place where trial spawners and vaults naturally generate. Trial chambers are also the only place where breezes spawn, whose breeze rods can be used to craft wind charges. Various materials such as heavy cores and certain armor trims are obtained exclusively by unlocking vaults in trial chambers. As it is the only source of breeze rods and heavy cores, the structure is also the only location where maces can be obtained.

Trial chambers can also be used to obtain copper bulbs without entering the Nether, and large quantities of copper blocks and their derivatives.

Ominous trials can also take place here through the Bad Omen effect. Bad Omen converts to Trial Omen, which causes all trial spawners to become ominous, making them more difficult and providing greater rewards.

Generation

Trial chambers generate underground in the Overworld. The starting room generates at an altitude of between Y=-40 and -20, but the structure is not restricted to those Y levels; the majority of the structure's rooms tend to generate between Y=-20 and 0.[verify]

Trial chambers can only generate in new chunks, specifically ones that did not exist prior to Java Edition 1.21 and Bedrock Edition 1.21.0.

The generation of trial chambers follows a grid of 34×34 chunk regions centered on the world origin (X=0, Z=0). There is always one trial chambers structure generated in each region at a random location, unless a deep dark biome cancels the generation of the trial chambers.

While the origin point of the structure (corridor_end) cannot generate within a deep dark biome, other parts of it can intersect a deep dark biome.

Locating

Trial chambers can be located using trial explorer maps, which can be obtained in one​[until: Third Drop 2026] or two​[upcoming: Third Drop 2026] way(s).

  • Trial explorer maps are sold by journeyman-level cartographer villagers for 12 emeralds and a compass. The maps always point to the nearest trial chamber relative to the cartographer that does not already have a trial explorer map that points to it. All maps bought from the same cartographer always point to the same structure.
  • Trial explorer maps can be found in loot of secret chests in abandoned camps.​[upcoming: Third Drop 2026] (see Abandoned Camps § Secret chests).

Trial chambers are buried underground, so exposed caves will usually have weird shapes that will determine the location of a trial chamber.

In Java Edition, a given villager always trades the same map, which is determined upon the trade unlocking.

An online seed map such as mcseedmap.net or chunkbase.com may be used instead.

Structure

Overhead view of a typical trial chamber layout.

The starting room of the structure is corridor/end. This room connects to a chamber and a section of a corridor. At the end of the section of a corridor, an intersection links to another chamber and another section of a corridor is generated, but this time it ends on the atrium, which then leads to the entrance room.

The structure then branches out from some corridor/straight pieces.

File structure

All trial chambers structures found below are located in the folder client.jar/data/minecraft/structure/trial_chambers‌[JE only] or data/behavior_packs/vanilla/structures/trial_chambers‌[BE only].

Blocks

This is a list of blocks (and loot sources) that can generate in trial chambers within its substructures.

Components

Corridors
A diagram depicting every piece that constitutes a corridor.

Trial chambers feature two corridors:

  • a corridor going from the entrance room to the intersection, passing through four slices and the atrium;
  • a corridor going from the intersection to the end room, passing through four slices.

The intersection connects both corridors, forming an L-shape. The intersection and the end room always lead to a chamber, while slices have a probability to lead to a hallway (see § Hallways).

Entrance
The doorway found in all entrance rooms.

The entrance generates at the end of one of the two corridors, passing through the atrium.

entrance_1 and entrance_2 include a vault, two entrance chests, and a platform containing either an oak, a mangrove, or a cactus; additionally, entrance_1 has a secret room containing a bed and a chest.

entrance_3 includes two vaults and three entrance chests.

Name Description Blocks Image[note 5] Weight
trial_chambers/corridor/entrance_1 Entrance 1 is a two-story room.

The first floor features a walkway, above which is a copper grate that leading to a hidden room containing a bed and a chest. A staircase leads to the second floor. The connector to the atrium is found at this floor.

The second floor contains a platform with a tree (either an oak, a mangrove or cactus) and two chests. Between the two chests, right next to the vegetation platform, is a trapdoor leading into a ventilation-shaft-like tunnel. This tunnel connects both floors. The second floor also features an upper ledge with a vault.

1⁄3 (33.33%)
trial_chambers/corridor/entrance_2 Entrance 2 is a two-story room.

The first floor is empty. A staircase leads to the second floor.

The second floor contains a platform with a tree (either an oak, a mangrove or cactus) and two chests. It also features an upper ledge with a vault. The connector to the atrium is found at the second floor.

1⁄3 (33.33%)
trial_chambers/corridor/entrance_3 Entrance 3 is a five-story room with two spiral staircases that intertwine with one another but never connect; each staircase leads to separate sections of each floor, preventing traversal between them even on the same level.

The first spiral staircase goes from the first floor to the last floor. The first floor features two chests and the third floor a third chest, while other sections of floors connected by the first spiral staircase are empty.

The second spiral staircase goes from the second floor to the last floor. The fourth and fifth floor both feature a vault.

The first floor features the connector to the atrium.

Atrium
An atrium viewed from the ground.

The atrium generates between the entrance and one of the corridor's slices. It always contains an ominous vault above the doorway leading to the entrance and a fountain.

Murals are generated on both sides; they can depict either a bogged, a breeze, a spider, or a spiral shape. The grand staircase is also chosen randomly.

Name Description Blocks Image[note 5] Weight
trial_chambers/corridor/atrium_1 Atrium 1 is a large room featuring a grand bifurcated staircase connected to the entrance, a fountain, two murals, and ladders connecting the surface level to the lower, middle and upper level of the corridor. The grand staircase design and the murals are chosen randomly and are not part of the structure's pre-generation.

Slices
A door leading from a corridor to a hallway.
A corridor viewed from the ground.

Corridor slices, or straight pieces,[note 7] are sub-structures that make up the corridors; they are generated on top of a tuff brick plate. Each of the two corridors has four slices.

Except for straight_1 and straight_8, all slices have a copper door:

  • straight_2 and straight_5 generate a copper door on the lower level;
  • straight_3 and straight_6 generate a copper door on the middle level;
  • straight_4 and straight_7 generate a copper door on the upper level.

On average, each trial chamber has 6.29 (44⁄7) doors. These copper doors can either lead directly to a chamber, a hallway or nothing.[3] Provided the latter case doesn't happen:

  • lower level doors always lead to a descending spiral staircase (lower_hallway_connector or trapped_staircase);
  • upper level doors always lead to an ascending spiral staircase (upper_hallway_connector);
  • middle level doors and these spiral staircases have a 97.48% chance to directly lead to a chamber, 2.44% chance to lead to a hallway piece, and 0.08% chance to directly lead to a dead-end (see § Hallways).

Both straight_6 and straight_8 generate with a trial spawner that can either spawn a melee, small melee or ranged mob (see § Mobs), but never breezes. straight_7 generates with a hidden vault.

In addition to their addons, slices can generate with various decorations such as flower pots, decorated pots, candles and corridor barrels (see § Decor). Some addons can generate with a trial spawner (that can either spawn a melee, small melee or ranged mob) and a vault.

End

The end room generates at the end of one of the two corridors. It always leads to one of these chambers with equal probability:

  • chamber_1
  • eruption
  • assembly
  • slanted

End rooms cannot lead to any other chamber, i.e. it excludes:

  • chamber_2
  • pedestal
  • chamber_4
  • chamber_8

End rooms always include an ominous vault. In addition to its ominous vault, end_2 also features a regular vault and an chest with intersection loot.

Intersections
A bedroom within an intersection.
The secret room in intersection_2.

The intersection is the room that connects both corridors. It always features a safer zone equipped with beds as well as an entrance to a chamber (rarely a hallway, see § Hallways for more information about the hallway generation rules.). In addition to that:

  • intersection_1 and intersection_2 feature an ominous vault;
  • intersection_2 and intersection_3 feature an barrel with loot;
  • intersection_2 features a secret room with an additional bed and a decorated pot always containing 3 strings.[4]

trial_chambers/intersection/intersection_1 Intersection 1 connects the two corridors by their upper levels. The two corridors and the chamber intersection 1 links to are connected by bridges connected to a platform above a pool of deep water.

The bedroom is located in the middle of the water pool, underneath the platform where the bridges are linked to. An ominous vault is sealed by a wall next to the bedroom.

1⁄3 (33.33%)
trial_chambers/intersection/intersection_2 Intersection 2 connects the two corridors by their surface levels. The two corridors and the chamber intersection 2 links to are connected by a small atrium.

The bedroom is located on a mezzanine and contains a barrel. An ominous vault is placed near the staircase leading to the bedroom.

A secret chamber is hidden behind the wall at the back of the 2 beds on the left. The secret chamber contains a purple bed, a decorated pot containing 3 strings, a table, a crafting table, and a potted dead bush.

1⁄3 (33.33%)
trial_chambers/intersection/intersection_3 Intersection 3 is a tall vertical room. The top of the intersection connects through the second section of the corridor (i.e. the one leading to the entrance), while the bottom of it connects through the first section of the corridor (i.e. the one leading to the end room). The chamber intersection 3 links to is found at the bottom, blocked by a copper grate wall.

The center is filled up by a tall tower with three levels: the upper level connects to the second corridor, the middle level contains 3 beds and a barrel, and the lower level is a copper grate walkway leading to nothing.

Unlike the other two intersections, this intersection doesn't contain an ominous vault.

A hallway viewed from the ground.

Hallways are segments that connect corridors to chambers. When a copper door generates in a corridor, it (or, in the case of an upper or lower door, the spiral staircase that follows it; see § Slices) may lead to one of the following pieces:

  • a chamber (97.48%);
  • a hallway segment (1.14%);
  • an encounter (0.41%);‌[Java Edition only]
  • a dead end (0.08%).

If the selected piece cannot be generated, the game attempts to generate a different piece. After a certain number of failed attempts, it defaults to generating a dead end.​[more information needed] If the dead end itself cannot be generated, no piece is generated.[3]

This process is then repeated at the end of each hallway segment or encounter. Furthermore, hallways never branch, meaning that every copper door found in corridors eventually leads to a single chamber, a dead end, or nothing.

Chambers
This section is missing information about: Bedrock Edition weights due to encounters not existing on this version of the game; all weights listed in this section are for Java Edition.
 
Please expand the section to include this information. Further details may exist on the talk page.

Chambers are large combat rooms that contain multiple trial spawners and vaults, as well as one ominous vault. Chambers can be accessed from hallways, intersections, end rooms, and corridor slices.

Each chamber design has several potential entrances, of which only one is connected to the rest of the structure. The remaining entrances are sealed with an entrance cap (see § Hallways). Each potential entrance, including the sealed ones, generates a disposal consisting of a hopper placed above a barrel (see § Decor), allowing players to manage their inventory before entering a chamber.[7]

Miscellaneous
Decor
Various decor features in a trial chamber.
A disposal near a chamber entrance.

Decor includes decorated pots, flower pots, candles, and barrels. It can generate in slices, some encounters, and undecorated_pot can generate in chamber_4.

Disposals and beds are also classified as decor but are not part of the decor pool: they only generate near chamber entrances and at intersections respectively.

Dispenser

Dispensers in this category are controlled by loot table dispensers/trial_chambers/chamber. (See § Chamber dispenser for loot table.)

Loot containers

Other loot containers that belong to categories trial_chambers/chests and trial_chambers/reward.

Trial spawners

Mobs

Natural hostile mob spawning is disabled within a trial chamber. Mobs spawn only from the trial spawners. The number of mobs spawned scales with the number of players in range of each spawner, and breezes are spawned less per spawner and per player than other mobs.

When a trial chamber structure generates, one mob from each of the following categories is randomly selected for the trial spawners in that structure. Every mob within the same category has an equal chance to be selected. The breeze is in its own category and is thus guaranteed to be found in certain chambers.

Additionally, chickens can also appear in trial chambers in two different ways.

  • In Java Edition, baby zombies or baby husks that spawn have a 5% chance to spawn as a chicken jockey.
  • Naturally generated dispensers can contain eggs and breezes can unintentionally power a button or pressure plate, activating the dispenser to fire the eggs, which have an 1/8 chance to spawn a chick.

Loot

Loot is available from vaults, chests, barrels, dispensers, and decorated pots from within the chambers. Players who defeat a trial spawner each receive rewards; this loot scales depending on the number of players who defeat the trial spawner.

Vaults and reward chests

A vault inside the trial chambers.

Vaults and chests (known as reward chests in game) in entrance_1's secret room and the hallway dead end rubble share the same loot table.

In Java Edition, each trial chambers vault and reward chest contains items drawn from 3 pools, with the following distribution:

Issues

Issues relating to "Trial Chambers" are maintained on the bug tracker. Issues should be reported and viewed there.

Trivia

  • The idea of trial chambers evolved from CornerHard pitching in a meeting to revisit the monster room.[10]
  • The design of trial chambers was inspired by the architecture of Mesoamerican civilizations, whose geometric designs fit well into Minecraft. The design combines the aesthetic of ancient civilizations with a futuristic feel.[11]
  • A scrapped chamber design appears in two YouTube videos showcasing the trial chambers and the trial spawners.[12][13] It includes a trial spawner, two chests, and two redstone lamps with levers on top.
  • Brandon Pearce thinks that whoever created trial chambers in-universe seem to be "pretty tinkery".[14]
  • There are around 4,500 copper blocks in an average trial chamber. If these were all mined and converted to copper ingots, this would be approximately 40,000 copper ingots.

Notes

  1. ↑ The name is inconsistently plural in-game:
  2. ↑ Due to game mechanics, exposed, weathered and oxidized copper will be created by time as the copper oxidizes.
  3. ↑ Ominous trial spawners cannot generate within the structure, but trial spawners become ominous as part of ominous trials, and these ominous trial spawners equip some mobs based on loot tables. See Ominous Trial Spawner § Ominous trial.
  4. ↑ Unoxidized waxed copper bulbs generate during pre-generation, but some waxed copper bulbs remain unoxidized and some will be exposed, weathered or oxidized (although still waxed) after generation, due to processor tool trial_chambers_copper_bulb_degradation.
  5. ↑ a b c d e f g h i j k l Randomized substructures such as trial spawners, dispensers, chamber and corridor addons, decorations and beds are procedurally generated after the structure piece is placed. This render image is represented as the final in-game appearance.
  6. ↑ The chests in entrance_1 have different loot tables, as loot_tables/chests/trial_chambers/reward is used for the chest in the secret room and loot_tables/chests/trial_chambers/entrance is used in any other chest inside of the substructure. See § Loot for additional information.
  7. ↑ The template pool is named slice.json, while the structures are named straight_N.nbt.
  8. ↑ If a walled_walkway generates within the substructure, one of the wall's faces will generate air, revealing the vault inside due to the way the addon substructure was generated.
  9. ↑ All lower addon substructures (except for ladder_to_middle) cannot generate in straight_6 and straight_8 due to generation purposes.
  10. ↑ The ominous vault generation may fails if the entrance located above it tries to generate a full_corner_column, a full_stacked_walkway, or a full_stacked_walkway_2.
  11. ↑ Although eruption contains a dispenser in one of its addons eruption/center_1, wall_dispenser doesn't generate in eruption.
