No More Crystals or Anchors
This lightweight datapack disables the crafting recipes for both End Crystals and Respawn Anchors. It is perfect for multiplayer servers or SMPs where you want to prevent explosive PvP tactics, griefing, or accidental base destruction. Once installed, these two items are completely uncraftable in survival mode.
🎯 Purpose & Appeal

By installing this datapack, you can restore classic Minecraft combat, protect your server's economy, and keep player bases safe from instant destruction.
