Dragons of the Third Age Mod - The Evil Wizard and Evil Castle

Mod details

How to tame your dragon

With dragon bind! A particular blend of ancient draconium. You need one for each dragon (and only one). Craft like this:

And use it to tame your dragon, like this.

Sword in Stone

Crafting recipe:

No dragonium needed! You will need a block of netherite though. Ouch. Once you have your stone ready, place it down between 60 and 70 'y' height and interact with it while holding a diamond sword. The sword will stick inside the block and in a few seconds you will have summoned the Evil Wizard castle. Prepare for battle! 

Evil Wizard

Lurking in his Evil Castle, with his Evil Minions is the Evil Wizard. Once he has spawned he will find you, eventually. You can find him first if you like, but either way you better be ready. 

He will drink potions to give him invisibility, regeneration or health. He also has at his disposal a number of attacks, including the ability to teleport straight to the nearest player. He will cycle between three 'modes'.

1. A ranged attack mode. He will throw the Evil Wizard Jnr fireballs, just more of them. He's also likely to execute short-range teleports.

2. A melee mode. During this mode he cannot take melee damage.

3. A slightly weaker version of the first ranged mode (he's slower, less knockback resistance, weaker attacks) however he can summon the dreaded Flappy, Evil Wizard Jnrs, and two types of small dragon.

If you manage to defeat this guy he will drop at least a dragonium block. Now we're talkin'.

Evil Dragons

Small but not to be messed with. The first type will throw fireballs at the player, the second type will perform swoop attacks. 

Flappy

Very irritated and very irritating small flying purple monsters.

Golden Key 5

Crafting recipe:

Place this key down between 130 and 160 world height (or straight into your forth Island). Once you summon the First Magical Island you have only four or five minutes to summon the rest. This Island is your pathway to the Forest Wyvern.

Forest Wyvern

At home in the forests and jungles of Minecraft, this is where they'll move their fastest. Tame with Dragon Bind, heal with dragon food, baked potatoes or fish. As usual speed up their growth with golden apples. These dragons can grow quite large and also take a long time to reach adulthood. 

To get one you'll have to fight your way past several Whip Grass, immune to pretty much everything except melee attacks: 

Whip Grass can also spawn in Plains and Dark Forests, very rarely though. 

And we've also got some lovely hornets to put some sting into your day. Much sting, actually. They spawn out of hornet nests, like this one: 

Priority one should be to take out that hornet nest, otherwise you might get into the same trouble as Steve has gotten into here: Both the Hornet Nest and Whip Grass may drop Dragonium.

Golden Key 4

Place this key into your third Magical Island (created from Key 3, see below). Once you summon the First Magical Island you have only four or five minutes to summon the rest. This Island is your pathway to the Desert Drake.

Desert Drake

This dragon can't fly, they can however, jump very high and glide like you wouldn't believe. The higher up you look when you jump, the higher the dragon will jump. Generally lots of health but they take a long time to reach adulthood. Heal with the usual dragon food, fish and the not-so-usual cacti. 

Fastest in hot and dry biomes (desert, savanna, mesa) and slowest in cold biomes.

To get to the egg you'll have to fight your way past the dreaded Venus Trap. It is immune to projectile weapons so you have to get nice and close. I'm sure it won't mind. 

Golden Key 3

Place this key into your second Magical Island (created from Key 2, see below). Once you summon the First Magical Island you have only four or five minutes to summon the second and third. This third Island is your pathway to the Sea Serpent.

Sea Serpent

Once your third Magical Island has been created the Sea Serpent egg will start to hatch. Once it hatches, if you haven't tamed your dragon within a minute or so, it will despawn (back to Dragon Land from whence it came, never to be seen again). So, go go go! 

These dragons can't fly, aren't great on land, but they sure can swim! Once in the water look down to descend and look up to rise to the surface. 

Heal with fish, dragon food, or chicken. To make things extra challenging you'll need to get past the Corrupt Tree, waiting for you on the island. This beastie has a ranged attack and once you're close enough, will switch to a melee attack.

Golden Key 2

Place this key into your first Magical Island (created from Key 1, see below). Once you summon the First Magical Island you have only minutes to summon the second. This is your pathway to the Rock Crusher Dragon.

Rock Crusher Dragon

Once your second Magical Island has been created the Rock Crusher egg will start to hatch. Once it hatches, if you haven't tamed your dragon within a minute or so, it will despawn (back to Dragon Land from whence it came, never to be seen again). Slow and steady won't win this race! To make things extra challenging you'll need to get past the Strangle Vine. 

This noxious (to Players) plant has a variety of effects such as blindness and nausea so be ready! Once fully grown you may saddle and armor it like a regular Minecraft horse. 

Key 1

Once you've crafted key one, place it in the ground between level 60 and 70. Wait a few seconds, and when the angels sing, look up to find your first Magical Island. Climb up there. Once you reach the top you will encounter a Poison Bulb.  This nasty plant has a number of attacks, including knockback, so be careful! Defeat this plant, ascend the waterfall and another awaits. Along with a Glyde dragon egg. 

Crafting recipe looks like this, the purple ingot is a draconium ingot: 

 
Glyde Dragon

As soon as you build your first Magical Island the Glyde Dragon egg will begin to hatch so hurry! Once hatched, the dragon is only a temporary visitor to your Minecraft world and you only have a limited time to tame the dragon before it teleports back to the mythical and mysterious Dragon Land. So make sure you are watching that egg and you are ready to act once it has hatched! They come in various sizes, various colors, and take a very long time to grow up! You can speed up their growth with golden apples.

They sleep after the sun goes down!

 
Key 2

Coming soon! For a sneak preview you can build a key 2 like this:

Place this key into your first Magical Island. Once you summon the First Magical Island you have only minutes to summon the second.

The Dragon egg (Rock Crusher) for this island is coming soon! 

Draconium

Obtain draconium ingots and nuggets by defeating an Apprentice Wizard. These evil magicians can be found in Dark Forests (where you find Woodland Mansions). A sword with Looting III will yield best results. They have various attacks and will not be easy to defeat. 

The Master is coming, as well... Prepare thyself.
