The **Dungeon Device** is the main entry point for interacting with the mod.

Using this block the player can open portals to increasingly difficult [dungeons](https://github.com/maucon/MCEndgame-fabric/wiki/Dungeons) filled with [enemies](https://github.com/maucon/MCEndgame-fabric/wiki/Enemies), [bosses](https://github.com/maucon/MCEndgame-fabric/wiki/Bosses) and special encounters.

## Obtaining the Dungeon Device

The recipe requires:
- 1× Nether Star
- 4× Netherite Ingot
- 4× Obsidian

The recipe unlocks once the player acquires a Nether Star.

The mod focuses on late-game gear progression, which is why the dungeon device is gated behind defeating the wither and obtaining netherite.

## Using the Dungeon Device

- blocked by another aspect
- exceed their types allowed limit

### Dungeon Modifiers

On the right side is a tabbed panel that displays modifiers affecting enemies.<br>
These scale with the player's dungeon level.

Enemy [attributes](https://github.com/maucon/MCEndgame-fabric/wiki/Custom-Attributes) apply to all enemies in dungeons, including bosses.<br>
Boss attributes apply only to minibosses in the dead-end boss arenas.
