Wakanda

Wakanda is a hot highland biome that mixes savanna and jungle. It is the only place where vibranium ore generates, and the only place to find kopje stone and baobab trees.

Finding it

Wakanda is added through TerraBlender. In the part of the world it controls, it takes over the savanna plateau, windswept savanna and sparse jungle biomes. Vanilla's own region has a weight of 10 and Wakanda has 3, so you meet it about one region in five.

Use /locate biome supercraft:wakanda to find the nearest one.

The ground

The surface is loam grass over red loam. Where rock breaks through, it is kopje stone: on steep faces, down about 10 blocks, and on scattered outcrops, down about 5 blocks. The stone under the loam is normal Minecraft stone. Caves, lava lakes, geodes and the usual vanilla ores still generate.

The spire

A Wakanda spire is a tall tower with a stepped black-and-gold base, a slim vibranium-cornered shaft and a glowing purple crown. You can see one from across the savanna. They need dry, fairly flat ground and appear about once every 300 chunks of Wakanda.

Places to find

Three structures generate in Wakanda. They share one grid, about 14 chunks between spots, and each spot picks one of them.

• Birnin Zana, the walled city, where Wakandan merchants sell tech and the Dora Milaje stand guard.
• The Great Mound, a shaft down to a cavern with vibranium in every wall.
• Warrior Falls, a waterfall and a stone island where you can challenge M'Baku.

Vibranium

Vibranium ore generates only in Wakanda, from Y=-64 to Y=16. Veins have up to 4 blocks and the game tries once in every 2 chunks, so out in the open it is a rare find, deep down. It comes thick at the Great Mound. Mine it for raw vibranium, then smelt or blast it into an ingot. See Ores and materials for every ore.

The Dora Milaje watch for thieves. Any Dora Milaje who sees you mine vibranium ore attacks you, wherever you are. Make sure none of them can see you. The Vibranium Pickaxe mines a 3x3 square (sneak to mine one block).

People and animals

• Merchants by the plaza in Birnin Zana sell tech for emeralds, and restock every morning.
• Dora Milaje guard the gates and the tower. Hurt anyone in the city and every guard nearby comes after you, and any who sees you mine vibranium ore attacks you.
• M'Baku, leader of the Jabari, answers the challenge at Warrior Falls. See M'Baku.
• War rhinos are tamed the way a horse is: climb on and stay on until it calms down, then saddle it. Feed it wheat or hay. Hold jump to wind up a charge instead of a jump.
• White gorillas are neutral. Hit one and the troop joins in. Once you have beaten M'Baku they will not fight you at all, and a melon slice or an apple tames one. A tame gorilla follows you, fights for you and sits when you right-click it.

Wakandan tech

Merchants in Birnin Zana sell these for emeralds. Each trade can be made a few times a day.

Item	Price	Trades a day
Vibranium Sword	24 emeralds	2
Vibranium Pickaxe	28 emeralds	2
Vibranium Spear	26 emeralds	2
Sonic Grenade	6 emeralds (two)	8
Charging Pad	18 emeralds	3

• Vibranium tools slowly repair themselves.
• The Charging Pad fills the energy of the Black Panther suit.
• The Vibranium Spear reaches further than a sword.
• The Sonic Grenade stuns and throws back everything close by. It does not break blocks.
• The Jabari Club is not for sale: M'Baku drops it.

Heart-Shaped Herb

The Heart-Shaped Herb is a rare purple plant that glows faintly at night. It grows on loam grass, red loam and dirt: now and then in the wild, and a few in the garden in Birnin Zana. Use one on the Challenge Stone at Warrior Falls to call M'Baku. Only one challenge can run at a time.

Kopje stone

A pale rock that comes in the usual building shapes.

Kopje StoneKopje CobblestonePolished KopjeKopje Bricks

• Cobblestone: smelt kopje cobblestone to get kopje stone.
• Stairs, slabs and walls: craft them, or cut them in a stonecutter.
• Polished kopje and kopje bricks have the same set of stairs and slabs. Bricks and cobblestone also have walls.

Baobab

Baobab trees grow in Wakanda. The wood works like any other wood type.
