This major update introduces a complete overhaul to Mythic Upgrades, improving compatibility with large modpacks, rebalancing gear progression, and adding exciting new world generation features.

General & Mechanics Changes

• Unified Smithing Templates: All separate templates have been united into the Mythic Upgrade Smithing Template.
  • Can be found in End City chests.

  • Note: Old templates will automatically convert to the new one.
