Monster Spawner
Description
Monster Spawners are cage-like blocks that periodically generate hostile mobs. Each spawner type produces specific mobs: zombies, skeletons, spiders, or cave spiders depending on location. Dungeon spawners are typically surrounded by mossy cobblestone and contain valuable chest loot. Spawners activate when players are within 16 blocks and require darkness to function. Placing torches or other light sources near a spawner will prevent mob spawning, making them safe to explore or convert into mob farms.
How to Find
Spawners generate naturally in dungeons, mineshafts, and strongholds. Most common in mineshafts between Y-16 and 0. Can be located by following cave sounds or looking for cobblestone/mossy cobblestone structures. Spider spawners may be visible on the surface in extreme hills. Silk Touch cannot collect spawners.
