“ | Based on a short story of the same name by Andrea J. Buchanan, this CTM map is a wicked and challenging experience, which has been officially adopted as part of the Super Hostile series. Fans of Kaizo Caverns and Spellbound Caves will really enjoy this map. But, fair warning, it's very difficult. | ” |
–Vechs |
Waking Up is the fourteenth Super Hostile by Vechs. It is a Complete the Monument (CTM) map and is considered one of the most difficult maps in the series. Vechs was commissioned by author Andrea Buchanan to create the map to go along with her book Waking Up. All 20 chapters of the book can be located within the map as an optional side quest.
Vechs officially recommends playing this map in Minecraft 1.4.7, though it was originally released for Minecraft 1.3.1. Compatibility for this map ends with the Minecraft version 1.7.10 or snapshot 14w20b, the final stable and experimental builds prior to Minecraft 1.8.
Overview[]
Waking Up is set underground with 16 dungeons including overgrown caverns, old castles, and platforms floating above void. Most of the dungeons in the map are populated by numerous creeper spawners, often placed in tight quarters or near edges of pits. The map has four intersections connecting to most of the wools, each with increasing difficulty.

Intersections[]
Strategies[]
- Stay on high alert: this map contains a variety of hidden traps. Keep an ear out for potion turrets (and the cave spider minecarts that activate them) and hissing TNT (from proximity bombs).
- Be prepared: pack your inventory with items you think you will need and then add more. However, don't add too much more, or your next death could be very costly.
- Making multiple runs in and out of areas is important.
- Have decent blast protection, as many of the dungeons are heavily populated by creeper spawners.
- Use torches and other sources of lighting to limit spawns, else you risk being swarmed by mobs from both spawners and natural spawns.
Trivia[]
- There is another map by Vechs by the name of "Gift" which is also based on one of Buchanan's stories. The map has a harder variant called "GIFTWARPED." Neither map currently has a known download link.
- If you were to enter creative mode and fly to the top of the first room after Talia's Bedroom you would find that the world above is nothing but bedrock.
- The official Super Hostile Map Download page has version 3.6.4 of this map, but at one point version 3.6.5 was also available - the only known differences are in Legion Halls, The Nest, and the railway between Upper Deathshallow Ruins and the Cavern of Peace.
