Description:
Ancient Nether Star Ores adds eight ore blocks that generate throughout the Nether. Seven ores yield familiar resources such as coal, iron, and diamonds. The eighth — Ancient Nether Star Ore — is a rare, luminous, near-indestructible block that drops a Nether Star, letting you build Beacons without battling the Wither.
| Block | Drop | XP Drop | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nether Coal Ore | Coal | 0–2 | Netherrack-style toughness |
| Nether Iron Ore | Iron Ingot ×4 | — | Fortune increases ingot count |
| Nether Copper Ore | Raw Copper | — | Nether Gold-style toughness |
| Nether Redstone Ore | Redstone | 1–5 | Nether Gold-style toughness |
| Nether Lapis Ore | Lapis Lazuli | 2–5 | Nether Gold-style toughness |
| Nether Diamond Ore | Diamond | 3–7 | Ancient Debris toughness |
| Nether Emerald Ore | Emerald | 3–7 | Ancient Debris toughness |
| Ancient Nether Star Ore | Nether Star | — | Luminous; blast-proof; iron pickaxe heavily penalised |
Nether Iron Ore drops 4 iron ingots directly (no smelting needed) and benefits from Fortune.
| Minimum Tool | Ores |
|---|---|
| Stone pickaxe | Nether Coal Ore, Nether Iron Ore, Nether Copper Ore, Nether Lapis Ore |
| Iron pickaxe | Nether Redstone Ore |
| Diamond pickaxe | Nether Diamond Ore, Nether Emerald Ore, Ancient Nether Star Ore |
Using a lower-tier tool yields nothing.
Holding an iron pickaxe while mining Ancient Nether Star Ore reduces your breaking speed to roughly 15 % of normal. Always use a diamond or netherite pickaxe on this block.
Fortune increases yields on Coal, Iron (ingots), Redstone, Lapis, Diamond, Emerald, and Nether Star ores. Silk Touch collects the ore block itself for storage or later mining.
| Ore | Rarity |
|---|---|
| Nether Coal Ore | Very common throughout the Nether |
| Nether Iron Ore | Common |
| Nether Copper Ore | Common |
| Nether Redstone Ore | Common |
| Nether Lapis Ore | Common |
| Nether Diamond Ore | Uncommon, deeper levels |
| Nether Emerald Ore | Uncommon, deeper levels |
| Ancient Nether Star Ore | Rare — spawns near Ancient Debris veins (20 % chance per vein) |
Ancient Nether Star Ore does not have its own independent vein — it piggybacks on Ancient Debris generation. When an Ancient Debris vein spawns, there is a 1-in-5 chance that a single Ancient Nether Star Ore block appears within about 2 blocks horizontally and 1 block vertically of one of those Ancient Debris blocks. It replaces netherrack, basalt, or blackstone only.
Spinning Axes adds six throwable axe-wheel weapons—wood, stone, iron, golden, diamond, and netherite—crafted by surrounding an empty center slot with eight matching vanilla axes, with each tier offering different durability, range, block‑breaking capacity, mining strength, and damage. Right‑click to launch a boomerang‑style projectile that flies outward, damages entities, chops through logs and leaves as it travels, then returns to its owner; returning wheels attempt to re‑enter your inventory and will hover nearby and keep retrying if your inventory is full. Items wear down with use, behave naturally in survival (leaving your hand when thrown), appear in the creative tab, and feature unique spinning visuals—perfect for ranged woodcutting, foliage clearing, and reusable combat tools.
The Bold Jumping Spider is an adorable, tameable spider companion you calm with spider eyes; it loyally follows you, is passive toward players, can ride on your shoulder, remembers and defends against foes it has faced, and helps in combat by leaping at enemies and shooting slowing webs while avoiding villagers, iron golems, and other players unless provoked. Wild Bold Jumping Spiders now spawn in six permanent visual varieties — original, black-and-white, tan, white, a bright orange with cobalt-blue fangs, and a new cream-colored variant with dark green fangs and cute jumping-spider eyes — and they occasionally perform short exploratory hops while idle for extra charm.
The Miners Lantern is a mystical soul lantern that, when placed in your off-hand, passively grants Haste I to speed up mining; if you stand within range of a beacon configured to provide Haste II, the lantern intelligently upgrades your buff to Haste III while you remain in range. The effect refreshes automatically as long as the lantern stays in your off-hand, the item tooltip explains the beacon interaction, and the lantern now appears as a proper 3D soul lantern in both first- and third-person with its familiar blue flame for a more immersive look.
The Mystic Loot Crate is a 2x2x2 multiblock structure that admins can configure with custom loot across three rarity tiers: Legendary, Rare, and Common. Admins with OP level 2 or higher can Shift+Right-click any block of the assembled crate to open the configuration GUI, where items placed in the top row are Legendary (rarest), the middle row Rare, and the bottom row Common (most frequent). To open a crate, players must hold a Mystic Key (found in the Tools creative tab) in either hand and Right-click the crate. The key is consumed on use, and the player receives one randomly selected item based on the configured loot weights. Legendary drops reward the player with a spectacular golden particle burst and fanfare, Rare drops trigger enchant particles and a level-up sound, and Common drops show a gentler particle effect.
This mod adds the Ender Merchant, a peaceful tall dark figure resembling an Enderman that wanders without becoming aggressive and opens a trading interface when right-clicked, offering various currencies like diamonds, emeralds, ender pearls, and lapis in exchange for rare End-themed goods. The Ender Merchant is immune to rain and water damage and will not randomly teleport while touching or submerged in water, so it can safely stand in rain or water without fleeing or drowning.
