The mod was made using Mcreator and is a work in progress, so it may have a few small glitches. It should work fine in survival but still needs some polishing before it is finished
The Staffs and More mod (SAM for short) is a 1.16.5 mod that adds new staffs to Minecraft, each one with different abilities, along. with new items, blocks, mobs, and a new dimension
More information about specific resources and crafting recipes:
Additions to the end:
SAM adds a new shine ore in the end that spawns at the bottom of the end islands. It can be created into blocks, a sword, a pickaxe, and can be combined with diamond armor to create shine armor. Crafting recipes can be found with JEI. Shine crystals are an important item in the making of Staffs. SAM also adds two new plants two the end with currently have no functionality.
Mega Crafter:
Shine crystals can be used in a crafting table to create a mega crafter with a 4x4 crafting grid. It's crafting recipe can be found using JEI
You can craft multiple recipes of items necessary for creating staffs and progressing. All of the recipes are here or can be found in the images tab:
Dark obsidian, used for traveling to the shadow wastes: place redstone dust on the four corners of the grid, then place dark stone on the rest of the edges and put four obsidian in the middle. This will create five dark obsidian
Magic dust, one of the main ingredients of staffs: place shine crystals on the right and left side of the crafting grid, leaving the edges empty, now place four lapis lazuli, two on the top and two on the bottom. Finally fill the center with four luminoce while still keeping the edges empty. This will create 16 magic dust
Dragon egg, the dragon staff uses a dragon egg and this allows for them to be renewable in game: First place two shucker shells on each bottom edge of the crafting grid and place two eyes of ender between the shucker shells. Then place one end stone on top of each shucker box, place obsidian in front of the endstone on the left and one nether star to the right of the obsidian. Then place a shine crystal above the obsidian and one above the nether star. Finally place one end crystal above each shine crystal. This will create one dragon egg.
Staff crafting recipes: first place one gold ingot on the left bottom edge of the crafting grid and another gold ingot diagonally above it. Then place a netherite ingot above the gold, one gold ingot above the netherite and one gold ingot to the right of it. This should make a y shape. Place the staff core corresponding to the staff in the top right corner of the grid. then place four diamonds around the diagonal part of the staff. two above the first and second gold placed, and two below the second gold and the netherite ingot. Then fill the rest of the space with magic dust leaving the bottom right and top left corners open.
Shadow wastes:
The shadow wastes are a new. dimension that can only be accessed by creating a portal out of dark obsidian. Dark obsidian is made with obsidian, redstone, and dark stone. Dark stone can be found in a new grey biome in the overworked that commonly spawns near deserts. You will then need to craft an igniter. The recipe for the igniter can be found with JEI. You can then enter the shadow wastes. The shadow wastes will contain a new mob that drops souls that can be used for staffs. It also contains new wood, blocks, and a new ore, luminoce. This dimension has many materials that can be used to craft staffs.
Note: not all of the features of my mod are mention here just so that this description isn't too long. You can find and discover other features using JEI, creative, or just in survival.
