Alternate Eye of Ender

by bushman59

Alternate Eye of Ender replaces the vanilla Eye of Ender crafting recipe, so players reach the Stronghold stage through a different set of ingredients.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltServer required, client optionalAll rights reserved1.21.8 – 26.3

What it does

The mod changes how Eyes of Ender are crafted, lengthening the progression path before the endgame. Players must gather more before they can locate a stronghold, which keeps exploration going longer. Server owners who want a slower route to the End install it on the server, and players connecting to that server need nothing extra. Files cover 1.21.8 – 26.3 for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and the mod is published as a data pack too. The mod is all rights reserved and not open source. It pairs with Cheaper Ender Chests.

Key features

  1. Changed Eye of Ender recipe

    The vanilla Eye of Ender crafting recipe is replaced with a new one that needs more resources.

  2. Longer path to the endgame

    Reaching the stronghold takes more exploration before players can enter the End.

  3. Data pack option

    The same recipe change is also available as a data pack for servers that prefer that route.

Questions

Does Alternate Eye of Ender need to be on the client?
