Description
Purposeful
This mod adds vanilla-friendly additions to existing unused features.

These additions include:
- New powerful potion effects obtainable from the sniffer's plants.
- Crafting recipes for uncraftable potions such as luck, wither, dolphin's grace.
- New mob drops for mobs which don't drop loot.
- Powerful but balanced weapons crafted from ingredients found in ancient city chests.
- New endgame food types with their own advantages and disadvantages over steak and golden carrots.
Recommended to use with JEI for new crafting recipes.
Enjoy!
Crafting recipes:
- Heart of the Abyss: Found in the ancient city chests and drops from the warden. Used to craft the Sculk Crossbow.
- Golden Beetroot: Crafted by surrounding a beetroot with 4 golden nuggets. Offers less saturation a than a golden carrot but can be eaten at full hunger.
- Diamond Tool Fragments: Found in the ancient city chests.
- Diamond Battle Axe Head: Crafted by placing 7 diamond tool fragments like a ladder.
- Diamond Battle Axe: Crafted with the axe head and a stick. Does a lot damage but it is also very slow. Can be enchanted with both axe and sword enchantments.
- Netherite Battle Axe: Crafted by upgrading the diamond version at the smithing table.
- Sniffer Steak: Offers significantly better nutrition and saturation compared to steak but it is harder to farm since sniffers take very long to breed.
- Goat Meat: Worse than steak, better than mutton.
- Dolphin Fin: Drops from dolphins. Cannot be eaten. Used for brewing.
- Resilience Potion: Recovers health upon getting hurt with a 5 second cooldown. Brewed with pitcher plant and awkward potion.
- Ablaze Potion: Damages,knocks back and burns nearby players and mobs upon getting hurt. Brewed with torchflower and awkward potion.
- Crystal Skin Potion: Makes the player immune to projectiles. Brewed with amethyst cluster(obtainable with silk touch) and awkward potion.
- Dolphin's Grace Potion: Brewed with dolphin fin and awkward potion.
- Luck Potion: Brewed with sea pickle and awkward potion.
- Wither Potion: Brewed with wither rose and awkward potion.
- Sculk Crossbow: Crafted in 3x3 -> Place a Tripwire Hook in the center, with a Heart of the Abyss directly beneath it. Put Echo Shards on each side of the Tripwire Hook. Above the Tripwire Hook, place a Netherite Ingot, with Netherite Scrap positioned on each side of the Netherite Ingot. Shoots faster arrows (which means more damage) and reloads quicker, better than a power 5 bow when enchanted.
Drops from vanilla mobs:
- Bee: Honey combs.
- Frog: Slime balls.
- Dolphin: Dolphin fin.
- Fox: Leather.
- Sniffer: Sniffer steak and moss block.
- Goat: Goat meat and wool.
- Warden: Heart of the Abyss.
