Tier 2: These chest are only found in the spawn. The loot is very similar to tier 1 but with 2 notable difference, iron loot is more common and diamond loot is rare instead of unfindable. Also bottles O' experience and lapis lazuli can be found.
Tier 3: This kind of chest is known as a supply drop, the loot for this kind of chest will be found in the Supply Drops section.
Compasses[]
Survival games compasses are different than in vanilla Minecraft. instead of showing the world spawn, they point to the nearest player. If right clicked, they also show how many blocks away the nearest player is, this is good if you are on a killing spree or want to avoid others.
