Strider657’s End Update

End Update

An unofficial End Update that turns the End from a barren world into a dimension worth exploring.

Past the central island and the dragon, the vanilla End is one quiet, endless plain. End Update fills that emptiness in — new biomes to cross, ruins to raid, ores to refine, creatures to hunt, and a signature potion that finally lets you take to the skies.

For Minecraft 1.21.1 on NeoForge.

_Note: Older versions of this mod also supported 1.21.8, but for newer versions, I do not plan on also supporting 1.21.8 anymore._

Ships with a full in-game wiki (via the free, optional Patchouli mod).

Highlights

• 5 new biomes across the outer islands
• Temples, shrines & outposts to explore and loot
• Two new metal tiers — Enderite & Ambynite — with full tool and armor sets
• Hammers — More powerful axes for battle
• Potion of Void Levitation — flight, gliding, a teleport dash, and more
• The End Cube — a new creature and the source of Endium Dust
• New enchantments — Teleportation & Auto Collect
• A comprehensive in-game guide documenting everything

What’s Inside

Biomes

End Forest · Endium Forest · Old Growth Endium Forest · End Jungle · End Spikes — each with its own blocks, plants, and character. Water even pools in ponds and streams out here now.

Structures

Grand End Temples (three variants, a shortcut to Enderite), small End Shrines in safe and unsafe flavors, fortified End Outposts, and lonely End Lamps to light your way.

Materials & Gear

Mine or loot Enderite (top tier) and Ambynite (mid tier), then craft a complete set of tools, Hammers, and armor from each. Refine Endium for the mod’s signature potion, and build in Flavolite, the End Stone Pillar, and three full wood sets.

Void Levitation

The Potion of Void Levitation is a full movement toolkit, deliberately balanced so it’s freedom of movement, not an overpowered item dominating the game:

• Hold Jump to fly (speed-capped)
• Fall + forward to glide elytra-style
• Void Step key to blink/dash a short distance
• Sneak to dive
• Plus: no fall damage, a void safety net, item & XP magnetism, enderman calm, and a fall-slam shockwave on hard landings

Brew it from a Bottle o’ Enchanting and Endium Dust (blaze powder for fuel).

Enchantments

• Teleportation — dropped items teleport back to you (sneak-drop actually to let go)
• Auto Collect — mined blocks go straight to your inventory

The In-Game Guide

Everything above is documented in The End Update Compendium, an illustrated in-game wiki with a category for each part of the mod. Craft it with Book + Ender Pearl or find it in the End Update creative tab.

The guide uses the free, optional Patchouli library mod. End Update runs fine without it — you won’t have the book, and a friendly one-time notice will point you to it.

_Special credit to the BetterEnd team for the open-source concepts of Flavolite and the Shadow Forest\*, which inspired some of the block names and biome aesthetics in this mod._\

\* The Shadow Forest is planned to be added in 2.2.0 (subject to change).
