🔭 Cheaper Spyglass
Frustrated by how long it takes to find an amethyst geode just to zoom in? This lightweight recipe tweak rebalances the spyglass blueprint, making exploration tools accessible much earlier in your survival journey.
In vanilla Minecraft, crafting a spyglass forces you to track down a rare Amethyst Shard to use as the lens. This pack replaces that requirement with a standard, easily obtainable piece of Glass. By swapping the amethyst for glass, you can now craft your spyglass right at the start of your world using basic beach sand and copper!
✨ Key Features
- Early-Game Exploration – Get your spyglass immediately without having to hunt down underground geodes first.
- Logical Tweak – Swaps the Amethyst Shard for a logical Glass block/pane alternative to serve as the lens.
- Vanilla Friendly – Keeps the original requirement of 2 Copper Ingots intact, preserving the copper utility.
- Clean Overwrite – Completely disables the default vanilla amethyst recipe to prevent conflicts or duplicates.
