Ancient Gem ore generates naturally deep underground in your world. Mine it with a pickaxe to collect the raw ore, then process it into usable materials at your crafting setup.What's the difference between forging stone and armor Forge table?
The Armor Forge table is used to craft new armor sets from scratch using armor plates and materials. The Forging Stone is a quick upgrade item that instantly transforms your vanilla armor into Chinese-style armor without needing the full forge table.
How do I use the dagger axe?
Right-click with the Dagger Axe equipped to pull nearby enemies toward you while dealing damage. This makes it useful for gathering scattered mobs or controlling enemy positioning in combat.
What does the sky piercing halberd do?
Sneak and attack with the Sky Piercing Halberd to knock enemies backward and apply negative status effects to them. This weapon is effective for crowd control and keeping dangerous mobs at distance.
How do I activate the glaive's area damage?
Sneak and right-click while holding the Glaive to create a continuous area of damage around you that hits multiple enemies at once. This is powerful for handling groups of mobs.
Can I combine this mod with other armor mods?
Yes, Chinese Weapons Mod works alongside other mods, though armor sets from different mods won't visually layer together. The Forging Stone only affects vanilla armor, not armor from other mods.
Do I need patchouli mod to use Chinese Weapons Mod?
No, Patchouli is optional and only adds an in-game guide book for convenience. The mod functions fully without it, though you'll need to learn recipes through crafting or external guides.
Why can't I craft armor at a regular crafting table?
Chinese armor sets require the specialized Armor Forge table to craft, which is a new block added by the mod. This ensures you need to gather the proper materials and setup before creating powerful gear.
Do the new weapons work with enchantments?
The special weapons like the Dagger Axe, Sky Piercing Halberd, and Glaive can be enchanted with standard Minecraft enchantments to enhance their performance further.
