Midas Crown

Quickstart

1. Craft the Midas Crown at a crafting table using the recipe in Crafting and Obtaining, or take it from the Combat tab in Creative inventory.
2. Hold the crown and right-click to equip it. Your head slot must be empty.
3. Aim at a block within five blocks and press Middle Mouse Button to turn that block into a gold block.

For more choices, craft and equip the Overlord Crown. Press G to open its block wheel and click a block type before transmuting.

Overview

The crowns let you transmute the block you’re aiming at into a chosen metal or gem block. They work on a single targeted block at a time, rather than changing an area around you.

What It Adds

• Midas Crown — a golden, red-jeweled helmet that turns targeted blocks into gold blocks.
• Overlord Crown — a dark crown that lets you choose between gold, diamond, emerald, iron, copper, and lapis blocks.

Both crowns occupy the head slot and can be equipped by right-clicking while held.

How to Use

• Transmute a block: With either crown equipped, aim at a block within five blocks and press Middle Mouse Button.
• Choose a block type: With the Overlord Crown equipped, press G to open the block wheel, then click your choice. The chosen block is displayed as the selected block on the wheel and in the crown’s tooltip.
• Change controls: The transmute and block-wheel keys can be rebound in Options → Controls, under Midas Crown.

The Overlord Crown starts with gold selected. The block-wheel choices are gold, diamond, emerald, iron, copper, and lapis.

Crafting and Obtaining

Both crowns can be crafted at a crafting table. The Midas Crown uses gold ingots and redstone; the Overlord Crown uses obsidian, an amethyst shard, and a diamond.

In Creative, both crowns are in the Combat inventory tab.

Abilities and Mechanics

Transmutation replaces the targeted block with the selected block. It does not mine the target or produce its drops. Air, blocks already matching the selection, containers and other blocks with stored data, unbreakable blocks, and blocks you cannot modify are skipped.

Progression and Strategy

The Midas Crown is the straightforward choice for turning blocks into gold. Use the Overlord Crown when you want to choose a different material, and change its selection with the wheel before transmuting.
