Ornate Reliquary Of Fortune

Quickstart

1. Craft the Ornate Reliquary Of Fortune at a crafting table using the recipe below, or find one generated naturally underground and mine it with any pickaxe.

1. Pick up the block — naturally generated reliquaries are completely inert. You must mine it and place it yourself for it to become functional.
2. Place it anywhere on a solid surface. Optionally, place a chest or trapped chest directly adjacent (north, east, south, or west) to catch loot automatically.
3. Walk within 64 blocks. If the block is ready, it activates on its own — no clicking required. Watch for the brighter glow and enchanted particles.
4. Collect 10 items ejected upward one per second over 10 seconds, or let them flow into an adjacent chest automatically.
5. After the event ends, the block dims and enters a one full Minecraft day cooldown. When it glows faintly again, it is ready.

Overview

The Ornate Reliquary Of Fortune is a proximity-activated loot block for Minecraft Bedrock Edition. It looks like an ancient, expensive artifact — deep blue diamond-and-lapis construction with bright white quartz edging, engraved decorative corners, polished gem inlays, and a subtle magical shimmer. It occupies a single standard block space and is completely solid and stationary at all times.

The block generates rarely underground as a natural ore-like spawn, but only becomes functional after a player mines it and manually re-places it. Once placed by a player, it silently watches for nearby players and rewards them with a stream of valuable loot — no fuel, no redstone, no menus, no interaction required beyond walking near it.

What It Adds

• One block: Ornate Reliquary Of Fortune
  • Full-cube, solid, decorative appearance
  • Three distinct visual states: faint gleam (ready), bright glow with enchanted particles (active), dimmed/dormant (cooldown)
  • Generates naturally underground in rare ore-like clusters — inert until mined and re-placed by a player
  • Also craftable at a crafting table

How To Use

Finding One Naturally

Reliquaries spawn rarely underground across the Overworld like a valuable ore. They are completely inactive in this state and will never produce loot on their own. Mine one with any pickaxe (wood tier or better, takes about 3 seconds), pick it up, and carry it to where you want to use it.

Crafting One

See Crafting And Obtaining below.

Placement and Activation

Place the block like any normal block. It immediately becomes functional as a player-placed reliquary. Simply walk within 64 blocks — it activates automatically when your proximity is detected and the cooldown is not active. No right-clicking, sneaking, or items needed.

The Loot Event

• Lasts exactly 10 seconds
• Ejects exactly 1 item per second — 10 items total
• Each item rises upward from the top of the block with a visible magical particle burst
• If a chest or trapped chest is placed directly adjacent (on any horizontal side), items are deposited into that chest automatically instead of being ejected into the world
• If the chosen chest is full, the item ejects normally upward — items are never deleted
• If multiple chests are adjacent, one is chosen consistently

Cooldown

After the event ends, the block becomes dormant for one full Minecraft day. It will not activate again during this time even if players are nearby. When the cooldown expires the faint gleam returns and the next activation is ready.

Abilities And Mechanics

Loot Pool

Each of the 10 items per event is drawn from a weighted random loot table. Lower-tier items are much more common; the best rewards are rare even across many activations.

Chest Auto-Deposit

Place any chest or trapped chest directly beside the reliquary (horizontally adjacent — north, east, south, or west). During a loot event, generated items are inserted into that chest like a hopper. If the chest is full, or no chest is present, items eject upward as normal. Items are never destroyed.

Natural Generation vs. Player-Placed

Mining a natural reliquary and placing it converts it to the player-placed functional state.

Visual States

Block Properties

• Mineable with any pickaxe (wooden and above); drops itself when broken
• No GUI, no redstone interaction, no fuel, always one block in size

Progression And Strategy

• Place near a chest. Putting a chest directly adjacent means you never have to chase dropped items. Loot flows straight in, even while you're away.
• Mine naturals, don't leave them. Naturally generated reliquaries do nothing in the ground. Always pick them up and place them yourself to unlock their function.
• Open space matters when not using a chest. Place the block on flat open ground so ejected items don't fall into pits or land on awkward surfaces.
• Stack independent blocks. Each placed reliquary has its own cooldown timer. Place multiple in different locations for more frequent rewards across the day.
• Patience for the rarest drops. Elytra, Enchanted Golden Apples, Silence Armor Trim, Netherite Ingots, and Mob Skulls are among the rarest outcomes. Daily consistent use over many in-game days is the most reliable path to collecting them.
