Shulker Shell Crafting

by SmartStreamLabs

Shulker Shell Crafting lets players craft shulker shells from End-themed materials instead of hunting for them in End Cities.

What it does

The mod adds a crafting recipe for shulker shells, so the item no longer depends only on End City loot. Its recipe uses End materials, including chorus fruit, and requires End access to collect them. A diamond cost is part of the recipe, which slows early-game abuse and keeps shells scarce in progression.

Storage upgrades that need shulker shells become reachable for survival players while the base game's loot and mechanics stay as they are. The recipe is meant to stay close to vanilla and suit modpacks and long-term survival worlds. Shulker Shell Crafting runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it.

Builds are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 16 release versions, 1.17.1 – 26.2. The code is not open source and is released under All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. Craftable shulker shells

    Shulker shells can be crafted with End materials as an alternative to finding them in End Cities.

  2. Diamond-gated recipe

    The recipe requires diamonds, which keeps early-game access limited and the item rare.

  3. Vanilla-friendly materials

    The recipe uses End-themed ingredients so it sits with the rest of the base game's progression.

  4. Loot tables left intact

    Vanilla loot tables and mechanics are not altered; the mod only adds a new recipe.
