Item Upgrades

The Item Upgrades mod revolutionizes Minecraft by introducing six new ores based on real-world chemical elements. Unearth these precious resources scattered across unique biomes, then use them to craft powerful upgrades for your gear. Enhance your weapons with elemental effects, boost your armor with advanced defenses, and mine faster and smarter than ever before. With Item Upgrades, the possibilities for customizing your playstyle are endless.

Features:

  • Lithium: Speed and shock! Craft lightweight gear that electrifies foes and ignites flames. Found high in the mountains.
  • Titanium: Strength and resilience. Create ultra-durable tools and armor that withstand the toughest challenges. Found deep in caves.
  • Carbon: Pure strength. Unlock the ultimate durability and critical-damage enhancements for gear. Found in diamond-level depths.
  • Uranium: Risk meets reward. Use radioactive energy for poisonous attacks and glowing, protective gear. Found in lush caves and swamps.
  • Cobalt: Fireproof and fearless. Perfect for surviving the Nether’s fiery trials. Found near lava in the Nether.
  • Platinum: Rare and valuable. Craft luxurious gear that resists environmental hazards. Found underground near rivers.

How It Works:

  • Explore and Mine: Discover each ore in its specific biome and height range, from towering mountain peaks to the fiery depths of the Nether.
  • Craft and Refine: Use custom crafting stations to smelt and refine ores into usable components like ingots or crystals.
  • Upgrade Your Gear: Combine ores with unique materials like Blaze Powder, Ender Pearls, and Glowstone to create powerful item upgrades.
  • Progressive Gameplay: Unlock recipes as you explore, ensuring a rewarding progression from early to late game.

Gameplay Stats:

  • Ore Rarity: Balanced spawn rates ensure a satisfying mining experience. For example, Lithium appears in 2-3 veins per chunk with 5-8 ores per vein, while rarer ores like Platinum spawn in smaller groups.
  • Biomes and Depths: Each ore is tied to a specific biome and height level, from Y-level 120+ mountains (Lithium) to Y-level 0-20 lava pools in the Nether (Cobalt).
  • Visuals and Effects: Glowing ores like Uranium stand out in caves, while others add immersive particle effects like embers or static electricity.

Why You’ll Love It:
The Item Upgrades mod adds depth and strategy to Minecraft gameplay. Whether you’re an explorer, a fighter, or a builder, this mod offers exciting new ways to power up your tools and tackle any challenge.
