Where to find it
The deep dark generates far underground, mostly below Y 0 under mountains. Ancient cities sit inside it at around Y -51. Look for sculk spreading across the cave floor.

How the Warden is summoned
Sculk sensors pick up vibrations like walking, placing blocks and opening chests. They trigger sculk shriekers, and the fourth warning summons the Warden.
Stay quiet
- Sneak everywhere. Sneaking does not set off sensors.
- Place wool on sensors. Wool blocks vibrations from reaching them.
- Bring blocks to wall yourself in if a Warden appears.
- Bring a Night Vision potion so you can see when the Darkness effect hits.
