Minecraft Dungeons:Tower

The tower is a mission that can be found within the camp of Minecraft Dungeons. It has a varying number of floors which contain arena battles or boss battles, which scale in difficulty, or a merchant. At the end of each floor the hero may pick from five pieces of gear/artifacts or simply choose to get an extra enchantment point. Due to technical limitations, it is singleplayer-only.

Unlocking
The tower is unlocked after the hero completes the squid coast mission for the first time. The tower is accessible in a structure next to the mission select table within the camp. Its icon on the mission select map will appear above the squid coast and the adventure hub.

Appearance
The tower consists of a varying number of different floors. The inside of each floor is built with unique environments from various locations on each floor, as well as floors that have a similar aesthetic to the outside of the tower. Its exterior looks like a large temple or mansion, with lots of pillars and balconies. The exterior is mostly made of white stone, with acacia plank roofs, and is decorated with iron, emeralds, and acacia wood.
 * Cloudy Climb

The tower has been shrouded in night and fog at the time of the luminous night. However strange it seems, the luminous night revealed much of the nature of the tower, including unveiling countless luminous symbols that were invisible to the heroes during the day. Though their origin is unknown, these luminous symbols infest both the inside and the outside of the tower and can appear in many shapes and forms.

Objectives
In the tower, the order of the objectives changes with each tower layout, which itself changes every two weeks. Though the order of floors is random, there are always three boss fights and the following floors are in every layout of the tower:


 * FLOOR # OF #.
 * 1. EMPTY FLOOR.


 * FLOOR # OF #.
 * 2. COMBAT FLOOR.


 * FLOOR # OF #.
 * 3. MERCHANT FLOOR


 * FLOOR # OF #.
 * 4. BOSS FLOOR

Tower floors
There are five different types of tower floors.

Basement
The basement, also known as the empty floor, is the bottom most floor which the hero enters upon starting a tower run. It has a fountain in the center and the door to the next level always appearing on the left. No mobs will spawn here whatsoever and the hero will receive no gear/enchantment point for completing it.

Boss floor
Boss floors are a type of combat floor that spawns in either a boss or one to two powerful mobs, whom are summoned in by the tower keeper. Bosses/powerful mobs from DLC packs are included, which do not require the purchase of the corresponding DLC. The boss arena can have a couple of variations, but all of them are based on the tower's interior.

Combat floor
Combat floors contain a single arena battle, which will be initiated by the tower keeper once the hero heads into it. It can take on the appearance of a location from the Mainland, a DLC (the corresponding DLC pack is not required for it), or the interior of the tower.

Merchant floor
Merchant floors are floors in which one of three merchants can spawn. Either the Gildsmith, Powersmith, or the Uniquesmith. Like with the basement, the hero will receive no items or enchantment points for completing this floor.

Roof
The roof, also known as the final floor, is the last floor of the tower situated at the very top. This floor is considered a boss floor, and therefore a boss or one to two powerful mobs will summon at the top. Upon completing this floor, the hero will have beaten the tower and will receive their completion rewards.

Structure
The Tower has had a total of 18 iterations since it addition to the game, 7 for Cloudy Climb and 11 for Luminous Night. The layout changes on a bi-weekly basis. The layout affects the placement of the floors, merchants and bosses.
