The Shadelands is a mod which adds a new dimension to explore, with 4 unique biomes, many new mobs, and a new boss fight!
Getting into the Shadelands:
To get to the Shadelands, you first need to find an underground portal room.
After entering the portal, you will find yourself in a new world. (You must be in survival mode for this to work!)
What to do in the Shadelands:
After arriving in the new dimension, you will find two new ore types: Amber and Cobalt.
Amber tools being in between Iron and Diamond, and Cobalt tools being in between Diamond and Netherite. You can also craft yourself some armor with these new ores.
Another way to get tools is through exploration. You can find structures that contain loot.
Staffs:
Staffs are a new type of weaponry in the Shadelands, with 2 unique staffs in the mod as of now.
Staffs have infinite ammo and the projectiles shot are not effected by gravity. Before fighting the boss of this mod, you can only obtain the Snail Staff. The Snail Staff is crafted with ooze, which you can get from Shadow Snails. The projectiles shot inflict slowness, but the weapon has a slow fire rate.
The Eye of the Storm:
This is the new boss of this mod. To fight them, you need to find a tower structure. At the top of the tower, there is a eye block. Break it, and release the Eye of the Storm.
After defeating the Eye of the storm, you will obtain Storm Shards. You can craft a new armor set called Stormy Marble with storm shards.
You can also craft the Storm Staff, which shoots fireballs at high speeds.
Returning to the Overworld:
To return to the Overworld, you must find the Twisting Woods. In this biome, you will find glow fluid. When stepping in this fluid, you will safely teleport back to the overworld. (This also only works in survival mode)
