⭐ New in v1.3: Fusion Forge
Fusion Forge
An advanced metal fusion workstation designed for late-game efficiency and consistency.
The Fusion Forge processes two material inputs + fuel, allowing metals to be fused for higher and more reliable yields than traditional smelting or Fortune-based mining.
Its true potential is unlocked by installing a Nether Star catalyst (permanent, non-consumable), which doubles all outputs and pushes resource efficiency beyond Fortune III averages — without relying on RNG.

Core Mechanics
- Requires 2 input slots + fuel to operate.
- Optional Nether Star catalyst:
- Not consumed.
- Doubles all recipe outputs.
- Designed to outperform Fortune III averages, not theoretical maximums.
- Focused on late-game optimization, not early progression skips.
Example Fusion Recipes
| Recipe Type | Inputs | Base Output | With Nether Star |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ore Fusion | Silk-touched ore + Copper Ingot | ~Fortune II average | x2 output |
| Netherite Fusion | Ancient Debris Scrap + Gold Ingot | 3 Netherite Nuggets | 6 Nuggets |
| Alloy Fusion | Raw Iron + Coal | 3 Iron Ingots | 6 Iron Ingots |
Outputs are balanced per material based on vanilla Fortune drop tables.
