Deepslate Instamine Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
What pickaxe do I need to instantly mine Deepslate?
You need a Netherite pickaxe enchanted with both Efficiency V and Haste II effect active. Without both conditions met, Deepslate will mine at normal speed.
How do I get Haste II for instant mining?
Haste II is a status effect you can obtain from Beacons, potions, or commands. You'll need to set up a Beacon with the appropriate power level or drink a Haste II potion before mining to trigger the instant-break mechanic.
Can I instantly break logs with a sword?
No, you must use a Netherite axe with Efficiency V and Haste II to instantly break logs. This feature can be toggled on or off in the mod's config file if you want to disable it.
How do I set up a renewable Deepslate generator?
Place lava and water at configurable Y levels so they interact and create Deepslate. Check the mod's config file to adjust the exact Y-level requirements for your world setup.
Does this mod work with other mining mods?
Compatibility depends on how other mods handle block-breaking mechanics. Test your mod combination in a test world first, and check the mod's config to disable features if conflicts occur.
What if instant mining isn't working even with the right gear?
Verify you have both Efficiency V on the pickaxe/axe AND an active Haste II effect. Also confirm the mod is installed correctly and check that you haven't disabled the feature in the config file.
Can I change the requirements for instant mining in the config?
Yes, the mod includes a config file where you can adjust settings like enchantment levels, which blocks are affected, and whether log-breaking is enabled. Refer to the Configure Mod Settings guide for details.
Does instant Deepslate mining work in the Overworld?
Yes, instant mining works wherever Deepslate exists, including the Overworld deep caves. The mechanic isn't limited to specific dimensions.
Will this mod cause lag or performance issues?
Instant-breaking mechanics are generally lightweight, but running a large renewable Deepslate generator may impact performance depending on your system. Monitor your frame rate and adjust generator size if needed.
Can I use Efficiency IV instead of Efficiency V?
No, the mod requires Efficiency V specifically to trigger instant mining. Efficiency IV will not work, though you can modify this requirement in the config file if desired.
