Elemental Depths
Elemental Depths adds four ores that are found deep underground, each with its own tools, armor sets and passive effects, for players who explore caves and deep oceans.
What it does
Four ores generate in the Overworld at set depths: Lunarium in the deep Overworld between Y levels -16 and -64, Infernium in the deep Nether, Poizenium as a block variant that releases Poison when broken, and Watirium in deep oceans where water is cold, lukewarm or warm. Each ore is balanced close to a vanilla material, with Lunarium comparable to diamond, Infernium slightly stronger than diamond, Watirium slightly weaker than diamond and Poizenium closer to iron, and each one has its own weapons and armor.
The armor effects are tied to wearing a full piece: a Lunarium helmet grants Night Vision, Infernium boots grant Fire Resistance, a Poizenium chestplate grants Regeneration, and Watirium leggings grant Water Breathing. A Poizenium sword applies Poison to the enemies it hits, and the mod includes a building block in each ore family. Elemental Depths is built for Forge and runs on the client and the server, so both sides need it.
Key features
