Steel Plus
Steel Plus introduces steel as a new, durable material that surpasses diamond in strength and rivals netherite in style. This addon features steel armor and tools with impressive toughness and detailed 3D models, enhancing your gameplay experience with a fresh crafting element.
How to Use
To craft steel, you need to utilize the Alloy Table. Begin by combining a piece of armor or a steel tool with two bottles of Dark Essence. Dark Essence is a vital ingredient obtained from a newly introduced ore.
Mining the Dark Essence Ore releases Dark Essence gas. Capture this gas using an empty bottle by right-clicking or interacting with it. Note that the ore's spawn rate is very low, so exploration is necessary.
The ore typically generates between levels -64 and 10.
Once you have Dark Essence, use the Alloy Table to upgrade your gear. Steel armor and tools follow the same crafting recipes as their vanilla counterparts but require steel ingots processed in a blast furnace.
Requirements and Compatibility
This addon is compatible with Minecraft Bedrock version 1.20.80 and later. It works well alongside other addons without conflicts.
