Minecraft Dungeons takes everything you love about Minecraft and gives you a completely new way to enjoy it. Much like how Lego gave us amazing Lego Games as well as The Lego Movie, Minecraft has given us Minecraft Dungeons to enjoy. An action RPG by the teams at Double Eleven and Mojang, you and your team will be trading building blocks for dungeon crawling.
In Minecraft Dungeons you and your squad will need to craft a hero to go on your adventure. But instead of choosing a class, like other role-playing games, you’ll be able to create your own depending on your playstyle and the type of gear collected in-game. This gear includes a melee weapon, a ranged weapon, a piece of armour, and three additional artefacts each with their own effects governed by cooldowns. There’s a lot to grind for and a lot to customise, so we thought we’d help you out with a couple of endgame builds. Here are a few that should fit a couple of different play styles.
Melee Berserker Build
Whirlwind Axe
Whirlwind, forged during an epic windstorm, is a double-bladed axe that levitates slightly. It casts shockwave and spin attack.

Firebolt Thrower
The Firebolt Thrower launches chaos in a chain reaction of exploding arrows. Playing with fire grants this crossbow some powerful traits, with arrows exploding on impact, and the chance of a chain reaction. When the stars align, a few shots clear the dungeon floor. Chance of chain reaction and explodes on impact.

Highland Armour
The educated elders of the Ender days claimed that this armour was built from the scales of a dragon. This is the ultimate tool for a melee damage-dealer, giving you speed boosts after a dodge roll, allowing you to weave around enemies and slap them while they’re still turning. Gains speed after dodge, 20% damage reduction and +15% melee damage.
