Conditions for dungeon enemies to spawn?

[IvanGogh]

I'm planning on getting a dungeon farm going, or something like that. I wanted to know if there are specific conditions that allow dungeon enemies to spawn. Like Lihzahrds spawn when you stand in front of a temple wall, or marble units spawn when you stand on top of marble blocks.

Walk around? I wish mobs would sometime NOT spawn in mine so I could build a platform to cross a spike pit.....

I intend to make them spawn outside the dungeon area if possible.

Maybe if you build with enough Dungeon Bricks and Back wall you can make an artificial Dungeon Biome. Ive never tried it TBH.

yeah it is possible to make an artificial dungeon farm. however enemy requitement spawn at ground level 0 and below thats underground. also be wary if you make a artificial dungeon cause not killing skeletron will summon dungeon guardian in that place to! ^_^'

So basically it has to be below 0 and yeah, Skeletron is long dead. What else? Do I need a certain amount of dungeon bricks or maybe just the background wall?

i think you need both.
and when i tryed to make the dungeon i did a 100/100 block.
try and see if it still works it could count as a dungeon

Sketetron does not need to be dead to spawn dungeon enemies. Its just typically he kills you before you reach depth 0. Such as in the easter egg world the dungeon is deep enough to grind bones without killing Skeletron.
