Legendary Monsters Structures: From Fungussus Nests to the Space Station
This guide sorts all thirteen Legendary Monsters structures by rarity and covers what the mod's short recipe list implies about its gear.
The three landmarks
- Collapsed Kingdom — spacing 110, separation 80
- Space Station — spacing 110, separation 75
- Cloudy Temple — spacing 100, separation 70
These are the rarest builds in the mod by a clear margin, and their separations are unusually high relative to their spacing. That combination forces them apart rather than letting them cluster, so they are predictably distant rather than randomly scattered.
The stronghold tier
Ancient Stronghold, Ancient Tower Remains and Shulker Tower all generate at a spacing of 65 with a separation of 35. Three structures sharing exact settings means they are interchangeable in rarity — meeting any one of them is equally likely.
The working tier
This is where most exploration happens:
- Ruined Pyramid — 40 and 30
- Frostbitten Temple — 38 and 28
- Soul Fortress Remains — 35 and 26
- Mossy Temple — 35 and 24
- Skeletosaurus Nest — 35 and 23
- Lava Eater Spawn — 30 and 20
Six structures between spacings of 30 and 40, spread across biomes and dimensions. A long overland trip will cross several.
The one you cannot miss
Warped Fungussus Nest — spacing 7, separation 5. At that density it functions as terrain rather than as a destination, and it is the natural first encounter with the mod.
What the recipe list says about loot
94 crafting recipes against 154 items. Sixty of the mod's items therefore have no recipe — they come off bosses. The 14 smithing transform recipes are the upgrade path, and being so few, each one is a deliberate step rather than part of a ladder.
46 stonecutting recipes cover the block side, which at 43 blocks means the palette is fully cuttable.
Both builds are the same
Every category carries an identical count on 1.21.1 and 1.20.1, both at 2.2.2. There is no version decision to make here.
Planning a run
Nest first, then the 30-to-40 temples for gear, then the 65 trio, and only then the 100-to-110 landmarks.
