What is Chunkbase?
Chunkbase is a website that can be seen as a third-party “utility” for Minecraft. It allows players to find certain biomes or structures in any seed that the player needs to puts down. In fact, when players choose the game version, the errors are minimized automatically.
Chunk-base includes the support of all Minecraft versions from Java Edition 1.7 and Bedrock Edition 1.14 counting.
Different options are provided to explore and locate structures and biomes with the help of the exact positions at which they are located. There is a compass in the top-left corner of the seed map that helps the players to get an idea of where the location of the spawn is located.
After exploring the world, you must be curious about how to use Chunkbase. Well, we got you covered because we bring you the steps on how to use Chunkbase:

How To Use The Chunkbase Dungeon Finder
To find a dungeon using the chunkbase is not that hard. The dungeon is listed in Updates 0.9.0. in June 2010 long back. It is a hidden structure or room that is made up of cobblestone containing mob spawners including 1-2 chests in it which players have to find from their Minecraft world.
These dungeons are usually found underground in the Overworld. The Overworld is where the main character spends most of their time.
The size of dungeons varies from about 5×5, 7×7, or 5×7 blocks or square blocks as well.
Every dungeon has a monster spawn in the center of the structure which helps to spawn mobs until the spawners destroy themselves. Then, these monsters will split into zombies or spiders. But, this will only occur when players enter the radius of 16 blocks.
How To Use A Dungeon Finder?
There are some rules that need to be followed by the players in order to use a Dungeon finder. These are:
- To start with, visit the website Chunkbase.com.
- This will lead the players to the dungeon finder page.
- On this dungeon page, players will be able to see a seed and version box.
- For a quick start, players have to put the seed on the top of the text box and press the ‘Find Dungeon’ tab.
- Finally, players will be able to use the map which contains dungeons and the map with different colors –
- Orange color: It has multiple spawners in chunks.
- Grey color: It has skeleton spawners
- Green color: It has zombie spawners.
- Red color: It has spider spawners.
Items needed while finding a Dungeon:
Below listed are some of the items that the players will require in order to find dungeons.
- Torches: Players need to carry a torch as it plays an important role in lighting the dungeon caves up. Perhaps the most effective method of defeating a dungeon is to cover the spawner with torches, one on each side of the block. Doing so will prevent the mobs from spawning. Players should enter dungeons with a minimum of 5 torches to accomplish this.
- Weapons: It is very crucial for the players to take a sword, bow, or arrow with them to keep them safe from the attack of zombies. Even, a sword to bring along like a stone sword, iron, gold, or diamond will be beneficial.
- Armor: Gamers can carry any type of armor which will protect them from the attack of the monsters.
- Pickaxe: This will help the players to destroy the monster spawners.
