Items and Blocks

Items and Blocks

All items are in the Solo Mining creative tab. None of them is crafted – see Hunter Shop for how to get them.

	Dungeon Exit Crystal	Right-click inside a gate to leave. The run stays open – /solomining return takes you back. Does not work in a running Red Gate.	Given when you enter a gate, taken back when you leave. Shop: 3 Mana Crystals

Important

Boss Cores are the end-game currency. They buy the strongest items in the shop and cannot be sold for emeralds. Do not trade them away lightly.

Gate gear

Every boss has its own set: four armor pieces and a blade. The values lie between diamond and netherite – netherite stays the best you can forge, but a complete set gives a set bonus that protects against exactly the dangers of its area, and the blade carries its boss's power.

Each set has its own colors and its own blade shape, so none of it can be mistaken for vanilla armor or tools.

Set	Helmet	Chest	Legs	Boots	Blade	Set bonus (all four pieces)	Blade hits
Brood (Deep Cave)					Brood Fang	Night vision, immune to poison	poison
Colossus (Ice Wasteland)					Colossus Cleaver	Never freezes, immune to slowness	slow down
Pharaoh (Sand Temple)					Pharaoh's Khopesh	Immune to hunger and blindness	weaken
Tyrant (Volcanic Depths)					Tyrant's Edge	Fire resistance	set on fire
Treant (Overgrown Ruin)					Treant Thorn	Slow regeneration	root in place
Void (Abyssal Void)					Void Edge	Immune to darkness and weakness	wither

Stats:

• Armor: same armor points as diamond (3/8/6/3), toughness 2.5 (diamond 2, netherite 3), a little knockback resistance, diamond durability.
• Blade: 7.5 attack damage (diamond 7, netherite 8), attack speed 1.6, 1800 durability.
• Everything is fire resistant (does not burn in lava), can be enchanted like diamond, and is repaired with Boss Cores in an anvil.

Important

Where to get it: only from the boss chest of the matching area, from rank C. Each piece has its own chance (5% plus 1.5% per rank step). Server owners can change this in solomining_loot.json.

The set bonus only works while you wear all four pieces of the same set; the tooltip shows it.

Blocks

	Block
	Solo Mining Gate	The purple gate surface. Stand in it for 3 seconds to enter. Unbreakable.
	Exit Gate	The turquoise gate surface in the waiting room and next to the reward chest.
	Gate Frame / Gate Frame Light	The frame around every gate. Unbreakable and explosion-proof, so gates cannot be mined for gold. No item form.
	Ready Pedestal	Right-click in the waiting room to mark yourself ready.
	Hunter Shop	Market stall; right-click to open the shop. Also works when placed in your own world (creative).

All gate blocks only exist where the mod places them, and they disappear again when the gate closes.
