Minecraft Dungeons II Soul Storms
Soul Storms are timed world events: destroy the Storm Generators before time runs out to quell the storm. The game files rotate them through 7 areas (Howling Woods, Singer's Meadow, Rainy Plains, Humbler Huskland, Lullaby Hills, Frozen Highlands, Honeycomb Fields) with a 20-minute storm every 40 minutes; the in-game tip says about every hour, for around 40 minutes. Storm chests drop no Common gear, and 19.8% of their gear is Unique.
The areas the game's scheduler cycles through, in order, with each area's Storm Generator spawn points and a link to the storm on the map.

It is an online table, so the live servers can change it, and the in-game tip says Soul Storms appear about every hour and last around 40 minutes. The map in game always shows the storm that is active right now.

Storm Generators
Game dataThe game files define three Storm Generator tiers. As a generator loses health it spawns waves of mobs, and at its last health threshold it summons the enemies below; tiers 2 and 3 can also raise a Shield Generator.
| Tier | Health | Shield Generator spawn | Summons at low health |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tier 1 (Easy) | 800 | None |  Soul Corrupted Zombie Soul Corrupted Vindicator |
| Tier 2 (Medium) | 1,000 | 16% chance, 60 s cooldown |  Witch Enderman Warden Evoker Dartback Harmonizer |
| Tier 3 (Hard) | 1,200 | 40% chance, 45 s cooldown |  Copper Monstrosity Redstone Monstrosity Sculk Monstrosity |
Storm Generators take 50% of soul damage and 80% of melee damage and can't be knocked back. A Shield Generator (55 health) shields them until you destroy it.
Soul Storm mobs
Game dataEvery mob a Storm Generator's waves can spawn. The total wave budget scales with party size: ×1 solo, ×1.2 for 2 players, ×1.5 for 3 and ×2 for 4.
