Ender Io Endergy FAQ

Start by crafting Crude Steel, the entry-level alloy, then use it to make your first grinding balls and capacitors. Everything else in the mod builds on that first alloy tier, so get a steady Crude Steel supply going before chasing the fancier materials.

Grinding balls are inserted into a SAG Mill to boost its output, typically improving bonus output chances or processing speed depending on the ball tier. Higher-tier balls like Crystalline or Stellar give better results, so upgrade your ball as soon as you can afford the alloy.

Crude Steel Grinding Balls are the cheapest and easiest to mass-produce, making them the right starting point. Move up to Crystalline, Melodic, Vivid, and eventually Stellar balls as your alloy production scales.

Capacitors are installed into Ender IO machines to increase their energy buffer and, for higher tiers, their speed. Grainy is the basic tier, then Crystalline, Melodic, Stellar, and Totemic for specialized effects.

Each tier up (Grainy, Crystalline, Melodic, Stellar, Totemic) generally increases energy storage and throughput, with Totemic offering a distinct bonus rather than just bigger numbers. Check each capacitor's tooltip in-game since the exact bonuses differ per tier.

Crystalline Alloy is an alloyed material made by combining base metals with other ingredients in an alloy smelter or similar Ender IO machine. Once you have it, it unlocks Crystalline grinding balls, capacitors, and blocks for your progression.

Stellar Alloy is the top-tier Endergy material, used for the best grinding balls and capacitors in the mod. It requires the full chain of lower alloys and rare ingredients, so it's an endgame goal rather than something you rush.

Yes — pipe your base metals and ingredients into alloy smelters and route outputs to storage or the next machine in the chain. Once Crude Steel is automated, each higher alloy is just another step in the same pipeline.

Yes, Endergy is an add-on and depends on the base Ender IO mod being present. It extends Ender IO's material and energy progression rather than replacing it, so install both together.

Make sure the ball matches the slot the machine expects and that the mill isn't already holding a different ball. Also confirm you're using an Endergy ball in a compatible Ender IO SAG Mill, since other mods' mills won't accept them.

It is an addon for Ender IO that adds the more powerful, high-level content that would not normally fit in the base mod. It requires either the monolithic Ender IO mod or the modular Ender IO Base (plus Conduits when used modularly).

It adds more energy conduits, more alloys, more capacitors, and a Stellar tools and armor set. The conduits range from early-game crude steel conduits to Stellar conduits that transfer almost unlimited power.

It adds Stellar Alloy, Melodic Alloy, Crystalline Alloy, Crude Steel, Crystalline Pink Slime, Energetic Silver and Vivid Alloy. Each of these has ingots, blocks, nuggets and grinding balls.

It adds a set of silver capacitors matching the original capacitor progression, plus a crystalline capacitor (level 3.5), melodic (level 4), stellar (level 5), a cheap grainy capacitor with durability that is equivalent to basic, and the Totemic capacitor, which is enchantable with efficiency to reach level 6.

The Totemic capacitor is a capacitor that can be enchanted with efficiency to get up to level 6. It is one of the capacitor options added by the mod.

The grainy capacitor is a cheap capacitor that has durability but is equivalent to a basic capacitor. It is one of the capacitor options added by the mod.

They are the ultimate Dark Steel armor set, with all the same upgrades but even more powerful. The mod also adds a Stellar tools set.

Yes, it is an addon for Ender IO. You must install either the monolithic version or the modular version, and when used modularly it requires base and conduits.

The Modrinth project page lists 1.12.2, 1.21.1 and 26.1.2. It also notes that Endergy will not be released with the rest of Ender IO initially for 1.19+ and will take more time to port.

It supports Forge and NeoForge. These are the loaders listed on the Modrinth project page.
