Advanced Alloys

The Advanced Alloys modification fundamentally transforms your gameplay experience at all stages, providing a powerful alternative to standard stone, iron, diamond, and netherite tools. The mod expands the available equipment arsenal by adding copper gear and weapons that surpass iron equivalents in durability, although they lag behind in mining speed, damage, and protection level.

Main Features

A key innovation is the alloy blaster—a unique block that requires four furnaces, four blocks of cobbled deepslate, and one diorite (this block now has a practical use!). This device allows combining three different metals—copper, iron, and gold—to produce special ingots.

From the obtained alloys, you can craft tools, weapons, armor, and decorative blocks. Each alloy combines the best characteristics of the original metals and sometimes even surpasses them. Different combinations enable the creation of specialized tools focused on durability, protection, mining speed, or damage dealt.

Update History

Version 1.0.2 and newer

Added copper and iron netherite variations that are either more powerful and faster or more durable than standard versions (depending on the chosen type). Also introduced oxidized copper tools and armor—despite impressive characteristics, they have interesting drawbacks (such as static electricity issues).

Version 1.1.0 and newer

Introduced unique items like the katana (try holding it in your ninth inventory slot) and the silicon sulfate detonator, which possess special abilities. The developer plans to continue adding original weapons with unique functions.

Version 1.1.3 and newer

Added piaxelos—hybrid tools that combine the functions of several equipment types. Their crafting requires significant resources but helps save inventory space.

Alloy Blaster Recipes

Since the alloy blaster does not yet support JEI, all necessary recipes are provided below:

(The top recipe uses smooth quartz blocks to obtain silicon; an image for silicon netherite has not been added yet, but you can already create it)
