Tips for Finding Spyglass

  • Amethyst Geodes are spherical structures found underground, identifiable by their smooth basalt outer shell
  • Listen for chiming sounds near geodes to locate them while caving
  • Only fully grown Amethyst Clusters drop shards; smaller buds drop nothing without Silk Touch
  • Copper ore generates abundantly between Y 0 and Y 96, peaking at Y 48
