Relics Artifacts Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I find structures in my world?
Structures spawn naturally during world generation across different biomes. Explore outward from your base, especially in varied terrain like hills and forests where shrines and ruins are more common. You can also use a mapping mod or fly around in Creative mode to scout locations before survival exploration.
What's the difference between charms and relics?
Charms are smaller magical items that grant useful buffs for movement and survival, while relics are rarer, more powerful artifacts found in the most challenging locations. Both can be collected and equipped to gain their benefits, but relics typically offer stronger or more unique effects.
Do I need special tools to loot structures?
Most structures can be looted with basic tools, but having a pickaxe helps you break through decorative blocks and access hidden chambers more efficiently. Some structures may have puzzles or challenges that require preparation, so check the guides on structure exploration first.
Can I find relics in the Nether or End?
Relics & Artifacts Mod focuses on structures in the Overworld across different biomes. The Nether and End are not included in the mod's structure generation.
What happens if I destroy a structure?
You can mine and break structure blocks freely. Once you've collected the loot, the structure remains as a landmark you've already explored—it won't respawn or regenerate.
How do I equip a charm or relic?
Place the charm or relic in your inventory and it will automatically grant its buff while you carry it. Some items may need to be held in your main hand or placed in a specific slot depending on the relic type.
Do structures have traps or mobs inside?
Structures contain loot and may present environmental challenges, but the mod is designed to fit vanilla Minecraft's feel without excessive danger. Prepare as you would for any exploration adventure.
Will this mod slow down my game?
Relics & Artifacts Mod adds structures and items but maintains a lightweight design. Performance impact is minimal on most systems, though generating structures in new chunks may cause brief lag like any terrain generation.
Can I use this mod with other mods?
Yes, the mod is designed to blend with vanilla Minecraft and works well alongside most other mods. Check compatibility notes if you're using mods that heavily modify world generation or loot systems.
How do I know if I've found all the relics?
There's no built-in counter, so you'll need to explore thoroughly and reference the mod's guide on relic collection strategy to track which items you've obtained. Different biomes and structure types contain different relics, so explore varied terrain.
