Description
The Pharaohs Curse is a VERY POWERFUL placeable Eye of Ra sentinel block that continuously scans up to 100 blocks and instantly calls a muted lightning strike, dealing 50 true damage to the primary target, 10 damage to all entities within a 5-block radius, and igniting the area for 5 seconds. It scans every tick and prioritizes nearer targets; it ignores line-of-sight and water, so any hostile mob within 100 blocks can be struck through walls, ceilings, terrain, trees, or water, except that mobs closer than 4 blocks to any player are excluded from targeting (mobs at exactly 4 blocks or farther are valid). To use, simply place the block and let it run—strikes are immediate with no charge or wind-up, the lightning is quieter than normal, and the block retains high blast resistance.

The Pharaohs Curse
Quickstart
- Open a Crafting Table and craft The Pharaohs Curse block using the recipe below.
- Place the block anywhere in your world.
- Step back — the block immediately begins hunting hostile mobs on its own. No levers, no activation, no waiting.
Overview
The Pharaohs Curse is a powerful sentinel block themed around the Eye of Ra. Once placed, it autonomously scans a 100-block radius every tick and calls down lightning strikes on any hostile mob it detects — through walls, ceilings, water, terrain, and trees. It requires no player input after placement and operates continuously until broken.
What It Adds
| Item | Description |
|---|---|
| The Pharaohs Curse (block) | A placeable sentinel that auto-strikes hostile mobs within 100 blocks |
The block emits a soft golden glow and shows as gold on maps. It has extremely high blast resistance and takes about 6 seconds to mine by hand. When broken it drops itself, so you can always pick it up and move it.
How To Use
- Place the block in any location — indoors, outdoors, underground, or underwater.
- The sentinel activates instantly on placement and begins scanning for hostile mobs.
- No controls or interaction are needed after placement. The block runs automatically.
- To stop it, simply break the block. It will drop for you to collect and redeploy.
Abilities And Mechanics
Targeting
- Scans up to 100 blocks in every direction, every tick.
- Prioritises the nearest valid hostile mob.
- Ignores line-of-sight — walls, ceilings, floors, water, and terrain are no obstacle.
- Safe zone: any hostile mob within 4 blocks of a player is excluded from targeting. Mobs at exactly 4 blocks or farther are valid targets, keeping players safe from accidental splash damage at close range.
The Strike
- A muted lightning bolt appears instantly on the target — no charge or wind-up.
- Primary target takes 50 true damage, applied directly to health and bypassing armour.
- All entities within a 5-block splash radius take 10 damage.
- The impact area is ignited for 5 seconds.

Progression And Strategy
- Early base defence: Place one near your base entrance to eliminate approaching mobs before they reach your walls.
- Underground protection: Because the sentinel ignores line-of-sight, it works perfectly in caves and multi-level bases — mobs in adjacent tunnels are still valid targets.
- Water structures: The block functions fully underwater, making ocean bases and monuments viable to defend.
- Safe zone awareness: Keep in mind that hostile mobs hugging a player (within 4 blocks) will not be targeted. Lure mobs away from yourself before relying on the sentinel in tight spaces.
- Stacking coverage: Multiple Pharaohs Curse blocks can be placed to cover different areas or to increase strike density in a single zone.
- High blast resistance means the block survives creeper and TNT explosions, making it a reliable long-term installation.
