How to Get Started with Spheric Mod: Ascenda Ore and Ascenda Gem
Finding and Mining Ascenda Ore
Ascenda Ore is the foundation of all Ascenda equipment. Mine it with any pickaxe to obtain the ore block, then process it to get Ascenda Gem. Ascenda Gem is the material used in every Ascenda tool and armor recipe.
Once you have Ascenda Gem, you can craft the full Ascenda set: Ascenda Helmet, Ascenda Chestplate, Ascenda Leggings, Ascenda Boots, Ascenda Sword, Ascenda Pickaxe, Ascenda Axe, Ascenda Shovel, and Ascenda Hoe. Each piece follows standard shaped crafting recipes using Ascenda Gem.
First Steps After Mining
Place your Ascenda Gem into a crafting grid to produce the tool or armor piece you need. Start with the Ascenda Pickaxe so you can mine more Ascenda Ore efficiently, then craft the Ascenda Sword for combat and the Ascenda Chestplate for protection. The Ascenda Axe speeds up wood collection, while the Ascenda Shovel handles dirt and sand. The Ascenda Hoe lets you farm.
Ascenda Boots reduce fall damage and boost movement. Equip the full set for maximum benefit. Keep spare Ascenda Gem in your inventory so you can replace broken tools without returning to base. Ascenda Ore appears underground, so bring torches and a stack of blocks when you go mining.
