Ores+ 2 But Without Biomes
by KING6579
Ores+ 2 But Without Biomes is a Forge equipment mod that adds tiered weapons, tools and mob wands for 1.20.1.
What it does
Tier 2 pickaxes include a vein miner that breaks three to four connected blocks of ore at once, while Tier 2 swords carry lifesteal, so a hit dealt to an opponent also restores the wielder's health. Tier 2 axes can fell whole trees in one swing. The release adds ore materials and an update 1 content set, and the author plans further monthly updates.
The mod runs on the Forge loader for Minecraft 1.20.1 only, with one release, 1.0.0, published on 2026-04-28. Client and server both need it, so every player on a server that runs it must also have it installed. The code is not open source; the mod is released under All rights reserved.
