Minium Minor Edition
This mod adds three original ores and numerous useful items to Minecraft that will help you in the early stages of the game and provide an alternative to standard iron gear.
New Ores
Minium
The mod's main ore, generated in the range from Y=-32 to Y=96 in the overworld. Not related to Fuzs's Minium Stone.
You can create tools and armor from this ore using standard recipes. Tools mine faster than iron ones and have 1.5 times the durability. Armor offers slightly better protection, but the main advantage is the Resistance effect when wearing a full set.
Osmium
Generated in the range from Y=-64 to Y=96 in the overworld. Used in recipes for some of the mod's items and can be integrated with other mods. Texture borrowed from Mekanism.
Iris Quartz
A rare ore generated in the range from Y=-64 to Y=-32, never appears in open areas. Less common than diamonds.
Creating tools requires the Iris Quartz Smithing Template, which can be found in End City chests. Gear made from this ore surpasses Netherite, has fire and lava protection, and when worn as a full set grants Resistance, Absorption, and other effects.
Concentrated Minium Alloy
Crafted from 8 Minium and 1 Osmium at a crafting table. In a smithing table, you can upgrade Minium tools to this alloy, and chainmail armor to alloy armor.
Tools are slightly faster than Minium, durability is slightly higher than diamond but lower than Netherite. Armor protection is equivalent to diamond, but grants the Resistance effect when wearing a full set.
Iris Quartz tools are created by upgrading Concentrated Minium in a smithing table.
New Tools
Multitool
Combines a pickaxe, shovel, axe, and hoe into one item with durability equal to three separate tools. Functionality includes:
- Extracting raw materials from sea lanterns, glowstone, and honeycomb blocks
- Turning obsidian into crying obsidian
- Right-click functions of shovel and axe
- Reducing TrialSpawner cooldown to 9/10
Energy Gun
Fires energy using metals or gems as charges. Charged with an item in the off-hand. Available charges can be viewed through REI or EMI.
