Ever wanted to add compasses that could locate biomes and structures to your modpack but felt like the Nature’s and Explorer’s compass was too easy to craft?
\nThen this is the datapack for you.<\/p>\n
This data pack inserts 2 Eyes of Ender in both recipes (see image for reference) postponing them until later game.<\/p>\n
Many people might feel that the functionality of those mods was something they really wanted in a modpack but were a bit skeptical about the ease of acquiring them. That having the oppoturnity to find any place in the world almost instantly takes away from the exploring aspect that early game should provide, and that it is something that should be for late game. With 2 Eyes of Ender, these items can only be acquired after getting to the Nether Fortress, usually something that happens after getting at least full Iron armor or alike.<\/p>\n
The addition of Ender Eyes into the recipe also fits the theme of that they are for finding the way to a location, and now the explorer’s compass can be used in place of ender eyes, eliminating the RNG aspect of them breaking.<\/p>\n
Requires **Nature’s Compass** and **Explorer’s Compass** (duh)<\/p>\n
Tested in 1.20.1, but should work for all versions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
