⬇ Download on CurseForgeThe author built this one for Minecraft 1.16.5 on Forge. On other versions it may install and then do nothing.

The Buried Loot Mod adds 2 new blocks, 10 new items, and 2 new dungeons
-Barrels-
scattered around underground you have Buried Barrels which you can break for various dungeon-like loot!
Occasionally you may even stumble across a Treasure Barrel which has even luckier drops than the Buried Barrel.
-Artifacts-
The rarest drop from these barrels is the new artifacts: weapons, tools, and items that have special quirks that separate them from any normal item.
Ancient Sword: A sword with high attack power, but low durability
Haste Pickaxe: A pickaxe that gives you a short haste boost on right-click
The Saw: A powerful axe that will help you break these barrels even faster!
Golden Stick: A multi-tool that works on dirt, stone, and wood. Also gives luck on right-click
Megahammer: A slow weapon with massive damage
Battle Pick: A pickaxe and a weapon, gives you strength for a short time on right-click
Golden Pie: Not cheese
Rare Artifacts:
Wooden Sword: don't be fooled, this wooden sword is gifted with great power and gives its wielder special items to use in battle
Axe of the Turtle Master: a strong axe that gives you resistance and slowness on right-click
Void Pickaxe: a pickaxe with the powerful ability to destroy bedrock as its special ability... with a long cooldown of course
Artifacts have a ~1/500 drop chance in Buried Barrels and ~1/250 in Treasure Barrels
Rare Artifacts are only in Treasure Barrels and have ~1/500 chance as well
Fun fact: using silk touch on Treasure Barrels guarantees an Artifact!
Although it's a small mod, I think it has some interesting material you can add to a modpack for a bit of spice!
This is the first mod I'm uploading to curse forge, hoping to come out with more soon.
