First things to do

Dig down beside the blue terracotta, not through it. The pressure plate below sets off TNT.
Break the pressure plate first and you can loot safely.
Collect the TNT too; it is free.

How these seeds were found

We ran our seed finder over random seeds with this exact quick pick, using the same world generator as the seed map, and kept the matches with the highest seed score. Every coordinate on this page comes from that check, for 26.3. Older or newer versions can place things differently, so check a seed on the map for your version. Last updated 2026-11-02.
