====== Spawners ======

----

You can get your very own spawners on Maestrea! Spawners can be gained from crates, caches, player shops, and sometimes can be won in giveaways!

===== How do I mine a Spawner? =====

To mine a spawner, you need a pickaxe with silk touch and either Lord+ or Templar+ rank.

The Crystal Merchant sells a limited use pick that anyone can use to silk touch a specific spawner.

===== Can I change what type of spawner it is? =====

Yes! To change a spawner type, simply click the spawner with a spawn egg to change it.

The Crystal Merchant sells a range of spawn eggs. Spawn eggs can also be gained through rewards crates, daily/weekly chests and player shops!

Crystal Merchant sells the below spawn eggs at different costs:

===== Rare Spawner Cache =====

These caches can be gained from rewards crates in Spawn. Right-click on the cache to reveal a random rare spawner.

Possible spawners within this cache include: Goat, Ravager, Mooshroom, Magma Cube, Iron Golem, Guardian, Wither Skeleton and Piglin Brute.

===== Why can't I place this spawner? =====

To help server performance spawners are limited to 8 per chunk

===== I can't mine spawners in Resource? =====

Naturally generated spawners cannot be mined in resource worlds. There are also no naturally generated spawners on the towny world.

Only spawners that have been gained and placed by players may be mined. Spawners within resource worlds will turn into gold blocks when mined.

===== Passive Mobs and Sea Lanterns =====

Sea lanterns will push passive mobs West when placed near spawners. This can be super helpful when building grinders.

Remember - passive mobs need grass blocks to spawn on. See video below for an example of how this looks.
