Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

I don't know my version or loader

Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.

No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

Do you get tired of playing sky block and those pesky phantoms keep knocking you off the edge? Or just generally find phantoms annoying and wish their membranes had more use? Well say no more! With this mod you can craft together 2 phantom membranes to make one phantom leather, and with that phantom leather you can make phantom armor! Phantom armor is placed in between iron and diamond on the durability and defense scale, but has twice the knockback resistance of netherite, making it the perfect counter to those annoying sky menaces, if you're willing to kill enough that is.

With it's high durability and defense, it's viable for just about any situation that values knock back resistance over extra defense, as well as makes armor less of a hassle on sky island challenges.

If you're crazy enough, you can cook one phantom leather into a regular leather on a campfire if you so desire.
