Cave Crawler

Solo Mining

Gates are opening in your world. Inspired by Solo Leveling, Solo Mining adds dimensional gates that appear near players. Step through one and you enter a whole valley full of monsters: clear the combat zones, defeat the elite guardian, survive the boss entrance and claim the reward chest. Every gate is generated fresh, and its rank is based on the gear you carry.

Important

Solo Mining is needed on both the client and the server, together with GeckoLib for your Minecraft version and loader. On Fabric you also need Fabric API. See Supported versions.

Highlights

Gates with ranks Ranks E to S*. The rank depends on your armor and weapon, so the challenge grows with you. → Gates and Ranks
Open valleys No closed rooms: each gate is a valley under the open sky with combat zones, passes, caves and landmarks across 6 area types and 12 landscapes. → Areas and Landscapes
Twelve bosses with phases Two rulers for every area, each with its own signature attack, plus 17 shared abilities, enrage and last-stand phases, and an entrance in darkness. → Monsters · Running a Gate
Own monsters 29 custom creatures in Minecraft style – four for each area, some that roam every gate, and a treasure thief. Each with its own sounds and particles, some attack from range. → Monsters
Secrets Hidden vaults, mimics, buried treasure, caves and hidden traps. Optional event zones: Trial Shrine, Ambush and Seals. → Secrets and Traps · Event zones
Real rewards Enchanted books (even Mending), potions, smithing templates and more – and server owners decide what drops. → Running a Gate · Configuration
Gate gear Six armor sets with a blade, one per boss, with a set bonus against the dangers of its area. → Items and Blocks
Hunter Shop and Hunter Rank Spend gate currencies at the trader, climb from Hunter Rank E to S. → Hunter Shop · Hunter Rank and Advancements
Fair death rules Rescue, Drop or Hardcore, announced before you start. → Death Modes
