Mystic Ores - Tools and Armor
Mystic Ores adds 14 new ores, each with its own abilities, plus tools and armor made from them, spread across the Overworld, the Nether and the End.
What it does
The mod adds mystical ores to all three dimensions. Players find them in the Overworld, the Nether and the End, and each ore comes with its own powers when it is crafted into tools and armor.
The mod also adds Obsidian Shards and Obsidian Rods as a simple crafting material. Breaking one obsidian block gives four obsidian shards, which can be recombined into a complete obsidian block at any time. Two obsidian shards crafted together yield four obsidian rods, which are sturdier than regular sticks. Soulsteel and Voidsteel tools require these rods in their recipes in place of regular sticks.
Mystic Ores runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. It is published for NeoForge only, for 1.21.1 and 1.21.4, with 1.0.0 for 1.21.4 as the latest file. The code is not open source; the mod is released under All rights reserved. The author is a community-based developer who welcomes suggestions for new ores and feedback on existing ones.
Key features
Fourteen mystical ores
Cinderium, Vermillion, Topaz, Solarite and other ores are added across the three dimensions, each with its own abilities.
Corundum in lush caves
Corundum generates in large calcite formations in caves and lush caves, and is rare enough that finding it is worth the mining effort.
Mithril passive repair
A mithril ingot in the inventory, hand or off-hand lets mithril tools and armor repair themselves over time, giving near-infinite durability, though strength remains limited.
Obsidian shards and rods
A block yields four shards, and two shards yield four rods, a darker and sturdier alternative to regular sticks for progression recipes.
Corundum Horse Armor structures
Structures with Corundum Horse Armor are scattered around the world and give more protection and toughness than the diamond counterpart.
