Netherite Rebalance – Harder Ingot Recipe
This datapack makes Netherite ingots more expensive to craft, making it just a little bit more tedious to farm netherite.
The crafting recipe has been changed:
- 5 Netherite Scraps
- 4 Gold Blocks = 1 Netherite Ingot
This replaces the vanilla recipe entirely.
Why? Netherite is meant to be late game, and i feel like people instantly grind too much of it. It doesnt slow it down by alot, yet can seem more intimidating. This change makes obtaining it feel more rewarding and slows down progression in survival worlds.
Features:
- Fully overrides the default Netherite ingot recipe
- Works in Minecraft 1.21.11 (Mounts of Mayhem)
- Lightweight and compatible with most datapacks
Installation:
- Download the datapack
- Place it in your world's
