Picks of Power is a Forge magic mod for 1.20.1 that adds pickaxes with unusual abilities for cave mining and exploration.

ForgeClient and serverAll rights reserved1.20.1

What it does

The pickaxes change how caves are explored. Some teleport the player, others carry items, one fights nearby enemies, and the set includes wide-range tunnel mining, sky-gliding escapes and explosive bursts. The Ender Pickaxe, Seismic Pickaxe, Divine Elytra Pickaxe and Inferno-Reaver Pickaxe are the named tools in the set, and the Inferno-Reaver Pickaxe is fueled by Pyromagmic Bolts.

Crafting is harder for some picks and easier for others, and the in-game guide explains each pickaxe. The mod requires Geckolib, and the Pickito-o's Controller is needed for mining sessions that use the pickaxes. Picks of Power is published for Forge only, for Minecraft 1.20.1, and it runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. The code is not open source; it is released under All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. Ender Pickaxe

    A pickaxe with teleport abilities that lets the player move through a cave without walking the whole route.

  2. Seismic Pickaxe

    A tool meant for wide-range tunnel mining, clearing a broader area than a standard pickaxe in one use.

  3. Divine Elytra Pickaxe

    A pickaxe that adds sky-gliding, letting the player glide down or across a cave system after mining.

  4. Inferno-Reaver Pickaxe

    A pickaxe with explosive bursts, fueled by Pyromagmic Bolts and built for dangerous underground fights.

  5. In-game guide

    Each pickaxe comes with full details explained in the game, so recipes and abilities can be checked without an external guide.
