If you’re a Minecraft player, you know that your troops are your main weapons in the battle against the piglin invasion. But did you know that there are more allies to summon than just the golems? The different mobs we know from Minecraft can also be summoned to help you in battle, but to unlock them is a bit different than unlocking golems. Creepers are especially valuable troops to have, and in this article, we will show you how to unlock them in both the campaign and versus mode.
Unlocking Creepers in the Campaign
To unlock creepers in the campaign, you will have to play through several battles before even getting the option to do so. As you play through the campaign, you will see the occasional cinematic where the different Minecraft mobs try to help you fight. You will first get to use them in a battle during a piglin base siege.
This will make mobs spawn in the world and you can rally them by running by them, though you won’t have spawners just yet. You will have the ability to unlock spawners after the cinematic of the skeleton falling down. This is when you will have 3 new camps appear on your map: a zombie, skeleton, and creeper camp.
These camps will be shown as if being under siege by the piglins. You will have to take the time to go to them. These homesteads will be under attack, with all the buildings damaged. You will have to fight off the piglins and build defenses around the homestead just like you do with villages.
Once the piglins are gone, make sure you build a carpenter’s hut to fix all the buildings and the flame of creation in the homestead. Fixing this flame and the buildings will give you the ability to build a creeper spawner.
Unlike the golem spawners, you can lose your creeper and other mob spawners. Piglins will attack mob homesteads at night just like they do villages. Foresight will usually warn you about it during the day that the piglins are planning an invasion someplace.
If the piglins successfully destroy your defenses and take down the homestead, you will lose your creeper spawners. To prevent this, it’s not enough to just set up defenses. You will have to actually fight during the night to defend the area. Though, even if you lose them, the spawners aren’t gone for good. Simply fixing up the area again will restore the spawners.
Unlocking Creepers in PVP
Getting creeper spawners in PVP is a little different, but ultimately easier than it is in the campaign. For PVP mode, all you will need to do is build a “summon creeper improvement.” Before you can do that, however, you will need to do a few other things.
The first is to build the improvement hub. You’ll need a few of them, but this is where you build all of your upgrades for PVP. Then, you’ll need the “improvement: gather coal” upgrade.
For these upgrades, you’ll need plenty of lapis, so be sure to stock up on it before you get working on building these improvements. Coal is used in summoning creepers, so you’ll need plenty of it, along with other resources to be summoning all your other mobs. You’ll need to know a lot about ore veins and where to find them in order to stock up on them. If you want to learn more about this, check out our article on ore veins in Minecraft.
Final Thoughts
In conclusion, unlocking creepers in Minecraft Legends is an exciting and worthwhile endeavor. They are valuable allies in the battle against the piglin invasion, and can help turn the tide in your favor.
In the campaign mode, players will need to progress through several battles and complete various tasks before they can unlock creeper spawners. It’s a challenging process, but it’s also rewarding as it requires players to defend and restore homesteads and fend off piglin attacks.
On the other hand, unlocking creepers in PVP mode is a bit easier, as players only need to build a “summon creeper improvement” after building the improvement hub and gathering coal.
Regardless of the mode, unlocking creepers is an important part of playing Minecraft Legends. They are powerful weapons that can help players defeat the piglins and emerge victorious. So, gather your resources, build your defenses, and start unlocking those creepers!
