Endless Biomes for Minecraft

Review Endless Biomes

Endless Biomes

A mod expanding the End world and filling it with new beautiful and functional biomes. Besides expanding the world, the mod also complements the game with trading functions in the End world, the opportunities to create new items, explore dungeons, and fight new unexplored mobs – Creatures of the Void.

In addition to the obvious advantages, the mod also features an extremely attractive and aesthetically pleasant design, which perfectly fits in the common vanilla style of the game. Exploring new locations is as convenient and enjoyable as possible in a space where the distance between islands exceeds a thousand of blocks.

Biomes

As the mod developer promises, there will be totally 5 biomes, but many of them are randomly generated one in another, so clearly distinguishing them will be rather hard. The biomes include light lake islands consisting of Slippery Stone, forest hills of Penumbral moss and mushrooms, Radon and Rift islands floating in the air, and interesting structures of inverted forest.

Each biome has its features. Thus, Rift and Radon Islands will simply kill anyone who steps on them due to the high radiation level. However, a Penumbral mushroom can be used to get not only incredibly beautiful wooden blocks, but also new crafting items – a Resistive lubricant and a Penumbral disk.

Dungeons

The mod isn’t particularly rich in external dungeons. Actually, it consists of two types of towers only – Radon and Rift ones. There is a lot of interesting loot and dangerous opponents inside – the Watchmen. It’s up to you to explore them or not, but the places are really atmospheric.

In addition, mini structures –lampposts will now appear in the End from time to time. These are solely decorative blocks that give a little light in the void.

Mobs

Shiftling. A cute tiny creature that is absolutely indifferent to the player. Shiftings can be dangerous only because they live on small islands and teleports quickly, so it can accidentally drop the player into the void. Don’t confuse it with a withered shifting. These mobs are almost identical, but the withered shifting attacks first.

Anchlor. A large flying edible mob. It’s quite indifferent to the player, but when attacked, it flies away so fast that you can’t get it without Elytras. Its hp reserve is really small; when dead, it drops its own flesh, which is an excellent powerful food that offers instant saturation and regeneration, and shell fragments. You can use them to craft full-fledged plates, which later can be used to craft armor and weapons.

The next two mobs – are Watchmen. You can find them in new dungeons – towers, and they are extremely dangerous opponents. Actually, they have no differences, but for the names above their heads – all the indicators and the watchmen’s appearance are absolutely identical. They are the most dangerous when attacking directly, but they aren’t very agile and can’t move at a height, so you can easily defeat them from a hill or just by running around them and avoiding hits.

They give radon or rift as a drop, respectively. These blocks themselves are extremely dangerous, because they are radioactive and inflict damage to all the nearby living creatures. But you can use them to craft beautiful glowing lanterns that don’t cause any damage.

Armor and weapons

The mod adds new armor and weapons to Minecraft. To craft them, you’ll need to collect certain new items.

The Resistive lubricant and Penumbral disk – fall out of the broken Penumbral mushroom. To be more precise, out of the mushroom foliage and glowing lanterns hanging on it. Well, you can get the Anchlor Shell Plate from the fragments that fall out after killing this cute mob and the Resistive lubricant.

The armor is crafted on the blacksmith’s table by adding the Anchlor Shell Plate to the iron armor. Its indicators are similar to the Netherite one.

The mod’s long-range weapons are represented by two types of frisbees.

The first one – the Combat Frisbee – inflicts 6 damage points on the enemy, and is crafted of the Penumbral disk, Resistive lubricant, and the Anchlor Shell Plate. This frisbee has no resistance reserve, but after launching it, you’ll have to go and pick it up to reactivate it.

The second one – the Explosive Frisbee – is crafted of the Penumbral disc, the Resistive lubricant, and the vanilla TNT block. Inflicts 1 damage point and explodes everything within 5 blocks from the hit point. The explosion wave imposes random extra damage on mobs. Exploding frisbee is single-use.

The Void touched blade – is a weapon that you can’t craft on your own, but can buy at the trade altar. It gives +6 damage points and +2 points of the attack speed.

The Void touched shoes can’t either be crafted on the workbench or in the forge, only bought. They give +3 points to armor and have no extra effects.

Trade

Trading in the End world is absolutely different from the vanilla trade mechanics with peasants or piglins. When wandering around the End, from time to time you’ll see strange-looking stones – the Altars. Next to them or in the chests in the Towers, you can find a new item – the void core.

Before you start trading, you need to charge the void core by combining it with rift fragments on the workbench. Then, you should click on the Atar with the charged core. Next, various random mod-related items will start falling out of the Altar. These usually include new blocks, new weapons, or potions.

But keep in mind that the gravity spell will be imposed on you for 14 minutes after completing the deal, and you won’t be able to trade again until this effect is lifted. Like the rest of the vanilla effects, it can’t be lifted with milk.
