Cinder Tyrant

Cinder Tyrant

Awaken an armored furnace boss with a Cinder Sigil, read its warnings, and survive an enraged second phase to claim its heart.

An original boss encounter

The Tyrant has an original crowned model with basalt armor, bronze trim, a glowing furnace core, heavy gauntlets and distinct casting poses. No extra animation library is required.

• Faultbreaker: jump over the low shockwave or leave its ring.
• Cinder Eruption: move out of the marked circles before they ignite.
• Furnace Volley: step between the three marked flame lanes.

At half health, the Tyrant becomes enraged, attacks more frequently and marks additional eruption circles. Watch its pose, warning particles and dodge instructions. A short recovery after each special attack gives you time to strike back. Attacks do not destroy terrain.

Summoning and rewards

Craft a Cinder Sigil with obsidian in the four corners, blaze powder on the four edges and a diamond in the center. Collecting a diamond unlocks the recipe.

Use the sigil on solid ground in an open area with a 3 × 3 footprint and at least 3 blocks of clearance. Survival consumes one sigil. An obstructed location, Peaceful difficulty or another living Tyrant within 64 blocks prevents summoning without consuming it. The boss does not spawn naturally; Peaceful removes it.

Defeating the Tyrant drops a Cinder Heart and blaze rods. Combine one heart with four gold ingots in a shapeless recipe to craft one netherite ingot. Collecting the heart unlocks that recipe.
