Araxer’s Ages Staged Survival Modpack FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I unlock the next quest chapter?
Complete all the tasks shown in your current quest chapter in the quest book. Once you finish the final task, the next chapter will unlock automatically, granting you access to new mods and craftable items.
Why can't I see in caves at the start?
In the early game, you're not ready for deep cave exploration yet—darkness will blind you until you progress through quest chapters and unlock the right mods or items to handle it. Focus on surface ore hunting instead.
How do I find ore without mining deep?
Look for special indicators or ore clusters visible on the surface of the ground. These surface ore deposits let you gather minerals without descending into dark caves, making early-game mining much safer.
How do I get extra health hearts?
Cook and eat different types of meals—each food type provides different diet stat buffs that can increase your maximum health. Experiment with various recipes to build up your hearts.
What should I do to prepare for my first boss fight?
Gather good gear and food, build up your health through diet buffs, and make sure you've completed enough quest tasks to have access to useful tools or enchantments. Check your quest book for any preparation tasks before attempting the boss.
How do I travel to new dimensions?
Build portals to dimensions like the Nether, the End, the Twilight Forest, and the Otherside as you unlock them through quest chapters. Each dimension requires different materials and progression to access.
What are resource bees and how do I use them?
Resource bees are creatures you can breed and keep to produce hard-to-find crafting materials automatically over time. Set up a bee farm once you unlock the mod to generate rare resources passively.
How do I get to space?
Build advanced machines and construct a rocket as you progress through later quest chapters. Once you have the necessary tech, you can launch into space to explore far worlds and find endgame materials.
Can I skip quest chapters or go my own way?
The modpack is designed around following quest chapters in order—they unlock new mods and content progressively. Skipping ahead will lock you out of important features and crafting recipes needed for later stages.
What do I do after finishing all eight quest chapters?
Once you complete the final quest chapter, you unlock creative crafting mode where you can make powerful endgame items and have full freedom to build and explore without restrictions.
