Augments

Augments

Augments slot into a pack's augment tab and change what it can do. Tier II unlocks one slot, tier III two, tier IV three. The themed packs get two.

One augment of each type per pack. You cannot stack two Range augments for double the reach — the slot refuses it, and so does the resolver, so a pack assembled by command cannot cheat it either.

Augment	Tiers	What it does
Range	I–III	+4 / +8 / +12 blocks of aura
Focus	I	+1 effect slot
Amplification	I	+1 reachable effect level
Efficiency	I–III	−25% / −40% / −55% fuel cost
Capacity	I–III	Fuel buffer ×2 / ×3 / ×4
Attunement	I–II	Unlocks wider sharing than your tier allows
Discretion	I–II	Hides the particle swirl; at II, the status icon too

Notes worth knowing

Attunement raises your effective tier for the audience check only. A tier II pack with Attunement II can reach Pets, which normally needs tier III. It changes nothing else.

Amplification raises the ceiling; it does not raise your effects. You still choose which effect goes to level II, and it doubles that effect's cost.

Capacity matters more than it looks. The pack refuses fuel its buffer cannot hold whole, so a small buffer simply cannot accept a netherite ingot — which is what makes Capacity, and the higher tiers, worth having.

Discretion at tier II hides the status icon as well as the particles. Useful on PvP servers, or if you dislike the swirl.

Efficiency multiplies the total, after audience and level. It is worth most on an expensive setup, not on a single self-only Speed.

Crafting

Every augment is the same item — its identity is a component — so they all share a shape.

Tier I — amethyst shards around the core:

 A 
AMA      A = Amethyst Shard
 A       M = the core, see below

Tier II — amethyst blocks at the corners:

BAB
AMA      B = Amethyst Block
BAB

Tier III — eyes of ender replace the shards:

BEB
EME      E = Eye of Ender
BEB

Augment	Core
Range	Ender Pearl
Focus	Spyglass
Amplification	Glowstone
Efficiency	Block of Redstone
Capacity	Block of Gold
Attunement	Echo Shard
Discretion	Phantom Membrane

Focus and Amplification exist only at tier I; Attunement and Discretion stop at II.

Adding your own

Augments are one registered item plus a component pointing at a datapack registry entry, precisely so a datapack can introduce a brand new augment with no code at all. See the Datapack Guide.
