Zero's Bunch O' Stuff

This mod as of current focuses on the widely unused portions of the game, bringing them new life.

The first of which is the End Crystal and Amethyst Shard, now helping to create... Crystarite is a brand new material, sacrificing durability for function. The new tools all include their own specialty move, (except the hoe) allowing for a fresh but not too powerful experience.

CRYSTARITE SWORD

The Crystarite Sword features the ability to release a powerful explosion upon a right click, with the cost of a lengthy cooldown. Great for getting that one extra kill in a tricky situation.

CRYSTARITE PICKAXE

The Crystarite Pickaxe grants the user haste II when you break a block with a 1% chance. It allows for insta-mine without the use of a beacon as long as you have efficiency 5.

CRYSTARITE AXE

The Crystarite Axe has a 20% chance when hitting any entity to do and extra 30 damage. (15 hearts) This axe is incredibly powerful for pvp, as long as you're lucky.

CRYSTARITE SHOVEL

The Crystarite Shovel doesn't do much special, it's just a really fast shovel. Great for large excavations as long as you can deal with the lower durability.

CRYSTARITE ARMOR

Finally the Crystarite Armor, which was shown in the banner image. This armor grants some small, but quite useful buffs when the full set is equipped.

To create this armor and the tools there's a Crystarite Upgrade Template, at the moment only craftable. Hoping to change this soon to be similar to the netherite one.

There's also the 3 variants of Crystarites.

UNSTABLE CRYSTARITE

On the far left is the Unstable Crystarite. The Unstable Crystarite acts as a pocket End Crystal, sacrificing yourself at the reward of destroying everything in the vicinity. Basically a kamikaze.

PURE CRYSTARITE

In the middle being the most important is the Pure Crystarite. Pure Crystarite is used as purely a crafting ingredient for all the Crystarite tools and the armor set.

SOUL-INFUSED CRYSTARITE

On the right is the Soul-Infused Crystarite, used to open the portal to the other side, to The Alternate.

THE ALTERNATE

The portal is made with reinforced deepslate by the way!

The Alternate is a brand new dimension featuring new mobs, biomes, ores, and more! The biomes include the Sculk Forest, filled with brand new trees and shrubs to fill the landscape. There's then the Sculk Plains, being quite similar to the Sculk Forest just without the trees, and some extra tentacles sprinkled throughout. Then there's the Sculk Heights which instead of the ground being Sculk blocks and Sculk Crust, it's made up of the new stone, Grimstone. The vanilla biome the Deep Dark also spawns here, just underground. There is also a new mob, the Sculkasite which will attack you upon sight. Low health, just annoying.

GRIMSTONE

Grimstone is The Alternate's version of stone or deepslate for example. Currently it's craftable into a few new decorative blocks, but more will come eventually. The biggest part of this block is it's strippable with an axe, just like a log is. Stripping Grimstone presents the new Stripped Grimstone, dropping a sculk vein on its way. The Stripped Grimstone is a great new addition for texturing your cobblestone builds.

SCULK WOODSET

Another set of blocks held within The Alternate is the Sculk woodset. This wood provides a nice blue hue for building, or a wood to survive in the harsh conditions of The Alternate.

GIGANTIC GOLDEN APPLE (GIGA GAP)

The Gigantic Golden Apple (aka the Giga Gap) is a new consumable item that increases almost all your stats and enlarges the player. It's obviously very overpowered, probably already overdue for nerfs.

Next are some new items (more coming soon) that are related to the warden, giving an actual reason to hunt it down.

WARDEN HEART

The Warden Heart is the new drop replacement from the warden, getting rid of the random sculk catalyst. The Warden Heart is used in just a couple recipes at the moment, but more will definitely exist upon full release.

ECHO TOTEM

The Echo Totem is a brand new totem. It's weaker than a normal totem, however it's craftable and still saves your life.

There's also some new potions, specifically calling out the Echoing Sight potion. Echoing Sight basically turns you into a warden. You can barely see at all, but you know where every. single. entity. is.

Another item in the mod is the Wind Chimes. In the photo above, there's only iron ones, however in recent updates there's been copper and gold chimes added with their own unique textures, models, and sounds.

Not everything was mentioned here, so be sure to check out the mod for yourself to discover everything there is to uncover!

Also, feel free to include this mod in any modpacks, videos, or anything similar!
