An ominous vault is a variant of the vault found in trial chambers. It dispenses valuable loot when unlocked using an ominous trial key.

Obtaining[edit | edit source]

Ominous vaults cannot be obtained as items in Survival, even with Silk Touch, and cannot be moved with a piston.

It cannot be obtained via the Creative inventory or by using pick block, because it is technically a block state of the vault, not a separate block.[1] It can be obtained only by using commands, such as:

Java Edition:

  • /give @s minecraft:vault[block_state={ominous:"true"},block_entity_data={id:"minecraft:vault",config:{key_item:{count:1,id:"minecraft:ominous_trial_key"},loot_table:"minecraft:chests/trial_chambers/reward_ominous"}}]
  • /setblock x y z minecraft:vault[ominous=true]{config:{key_item:{count:1,id:"minecraft:ominous_trial_key"},loot_table:"minecraft:chests/trial_chambers/reward_ominous"}}

Bedrock Edition:

This command does not affect the loot table nor the key item, making it so that a normal trial key can unlock the ominous vault as if it was a normal vault. This is a bug, and can be seen on the bug tracker.

Breaking[edit | edit source]

An ominous vault can be broken but it does not drop itself as an item and takes a long time to break.

Their high blast resistance makes ominous vaults immune to explosions, but they can still be destroyed by the ender dragon, the wither's block-breaking attack, and blue wither skulls.

Natural generation[edit | edit source]

An ominous vault, as it appears in trial chambers.

Ominous vaults can be found throughout trial chambers. Each combat chamber always contains one ominous vault, while additional ominous vaults can be found at the end of both corridors and in two of the three types of intersections. There is usually an average of 6 to 8 ominous vaults in each trial chambers structure.

An ominous vault can be distinguished from a normal vault by its texture and location in harder to find places. An ominous vault is always surrounded by an altar-like structure that contains red candles and red glazed terracotta.

Unlike ominous trial spawners, ominous vaults don't replace normal vaults when a player with the Trial Omen effect is nearby.

Usage[edit | edit source]

A player can unlock an ominous vault using an ominous trial key. Each player can unlock each ominous vault only once, although after the 129th player opens the same vault, the first player in the list is forgotten and can open it again.

Loot[edit | edit source]

The ominous vault ejects 2 to 5 stacks of loot, like the vault, but the ominous vault's loot is significantly better.

The ominous vault ejects a combination of loot from three different loot tables. The following information describes the loot ejected for a single player when a single ominous trial key is used.

  • Common loot
    • Every ominous vault gives between one and three sets of common loot, corresponding the 3rd and 6th columns below.
    • An ominous vault that does not give rare loot gives an additional set of common loot, making it possible to get 4 sets of common loot.
  • Rare loot
    • Every ominous vault has an 80% chance to include a set of rare loot.
    • The loot listed in the 2nd and 5th columns below corresponds with the chance of one set of rare loot, plus the chance of the one set of common loot that can be used in its place.
  • Unique loot
    • Every ominous vault has a 75% chance to also include one set of unique loot.
    • This loot, and the 25% chance for each ominous vault to not have this loot, corresponds with the 4th and 7th columns below.

In Java Edition and Bedrock Edition, each trial chambers ominous vault contains items drawn from 3 pools, with the following distribution:
