Prismatic Dreamlands

Quickstart

1. Craft a Reverie Stone frame and a Dream Sigil.

1. Build a hollow frame 4 blocks wide and 5 blocks tall from Reverie Stone. Use the Dream Sigil on a block near the frame to fill its 2×3 opening with a Dream Portal.
2. Step into the portal to reach the Dreamlands. An arrival platform and a return portal are provided; step through a Dream Portal to travel between the Dreamlands and the Overworld.
3. Explore for Moonstone Ore and Starlight Ore. Mine them with an iron-tier or better pickaxe, then combine their drops with a Netherite Ingot to make Dreamsteel.

• Moonstone and Starlight ores, used to craft Dreamsteel.
• Lucid Hares, Dream Foxes, Gloam Husks, the Fallen Monstrosity, and two bosses summoned with a Nightmare Heart.

How To Use

Travel to the Dreamlands

Craft Reverie Stone from Crying Obsidian and a Netherite Ingot. The recipe yields eight blocks, so make enough for the 14-block frame:

Craft a Dream Sigil with four Eyes of Ender and a Netherite Ingot:

Build the 4×5 Reverie Stone frame with its center empty, then use the sigil near it. The Dream Portal activates in the opening. Enter it to travel to the Dreamlands. The portal at the arrival platform returns you to the Overworld.

Explore and gather

• Look underground in the Dreamlands for Moonstone Ore, Starlight Ore, and Dreamstone. An iron-tier or better pickaxe is needed for the ores.
• Moonstone Ore drops Moonstone Shards; Starlight Ore drops Starlight Quartz. Fortune can increase ore drops.
• Dreamstone normally drops Cobblestone; use Silk Touch to collect Dreamstone itself.
• Dreamfall Logs and Reverie Logs can each be crafted into four matching planks:

Creatures and encounters

Lucid Hares are harmless and drop Dream Meat. They can be bred with carrots or golden carrots. Dream Foxes also roam the Dreamlands; their spawn egg is available in Creative Mode. Gloam Husks are hostile cave dwellers.

A temple in the Dreamlands holds a seal. Approach it to trigger an encounter with the Fallen Monstrosity.

Crafting And Obtaining

Dreamsteel

Combine a Netherite Ingot, Starlight Quartz, and four Moonstone Shards to craft a Dreamsteel Ingot:

Use Dreamsteel Ingots to craft high-tier equipment. The sword and pickaxe are ; the helmet, chestplate, leggings, and boots are . Dreamsteel Ingots can also repair Dreamsteel equipment.

Nightmare Heart

Craft a Nightmare Heart from Moonstone Shards, Echo Shards, and a Nether Star:

Defeating either boss summoned by a Nightmare Heart yields another Heart, along with Dreamsteel Ingots and Moonstone Shards.

Abilities And Mechanics

Use a Nightmare Heart in the Dreamlands to summon a boss five blocks in front of you. Use it normally to summon The Grinning Gloam, a Warden-like hunter. Sneak while using it to summon The Looking-Glass Oracle, an Evoker. The Heart is consumed when used in Survival Mode.

The Fallen Monstrosity is a Warden-like temple boss with a health bar. It pursues players it can see and hits hard, so avoid letting it close the distance.

Progression And Strategy

Prepare before entering: the Dreamlands contain hostile creatures, and the caves are especially dangerous. Find both ores and craft Dreamsteel gear before seeking out a temple or using a Nightmare Heart.

Bring Silk Touch if you want Dreamstone rather than Cobblestone, and Fortune if you want more ore drops. The portal’s arrival platform gives you a marked route back to the Overworld.
