Overview
Wood and Stone function exactly like vanilla. Bronze is an alloy, which is made by combining Copper and Quartz (which spawns in the overworld) in a Copper Anvil. Iron is not required to progress from Bronze to Steel, however Iron is very useful for its much higher durability compared to Bronze. Iron armor is made by upgrading bronze gear in a Copper Anvil, but Iron tools can be crafted normally. Steel is an alloy of Coal Blocks and Iron Clumps. Diamonds are combined with steel gear in a Smithing Table to make Diamond armor/weapons/tools.
| Material | Utility Block | Required |
|---|---|---|
| Wood | Crafting Table | N/A |
| Stone | Crafting Table | Wood |
| Bronze | Copper Anvil | Stone |
| Iron | Copper Anvil / Crafting Table | Bronze |
| Steel | Iron Anvil | Bronze |
| Diamond | Smithing Table | Steel |
Why change the progression?
We made the choice to change minecraft's progression because of two goals we are striving for: Increase material costs and Make the increase enjoyable to play with. We could have simply increased the amount of iron ingots you need from 2 to 64 to make an Iron Sword, but we felt that we could achieve the same increase without simply making the game a grind fest. This is why we introduced the system of anvil progressions.
