Duck Shrine
The Duck Shrine is a player-built structure that allows players to summon Ducks by fishing in its waters.
Construction
A valid Duck Shrine consists of:
- A 3x3 water pool in the center
- A 5x5 border of valid border blocks surrounding the water
Layout
[B] [B] [B] [B] [B]
[B] [W] [W] [W] [B]
[B] [W] [W] [W] [B]
[B] [W] [W] [W] [B]
[B] [B] [B] [B] [B]
Where:
- B = Mud Bricks
- W = Water
The structure must be flat (all blocks at the same Y level).
Usage
Summoning Ducks
To summon a Duck:
- Build a valid Duck Shrine
- Cast a fishing rod into the 3x3 water area
- Wait for a fish to bite (the bobber must be bobbing)
- Reel in the line
If a fish is biting when you retrieve your line at a valid shrine, a Duck will emerge from the water and be flung toward you. You also receive the normal fishing rewards (fish, treasure, or junk) as a bonus.
Cooldown
Each player has an individual 5-minute cooldown for summoning Ducks at shrines. Attempting to summon during the cooldown displays a message showing the remaining time.
Messages
| Event | Message |
|---|---|
| Successful summon | “Something emerges from the depths…” |
| On cooldown | “The shrine’s power has not yet recovered. Please wait Xm Xs…” |
Notes
- The fishing bobber can be in any of the 9 water blocks and the shrine will be recognized
- The cooldown is tracked per-player, per-server (saved in world data)
- Ducks summoned from shrines are identical to Ducks spawned by any other means
- The shrine does not generate naturally; it must be built by the player
