We have finally moved on from v5! Even though this update isn't as big as old big updates (v3), this one still adds a lot. This updates includes new items, a new variant of the Empress of Light, a configuration overhaul, worldgen changes, and many visual and technical chances. Since this is a major update, be aware that old items MIGHT break.

Items

• Added Radiant Jewel
  • Drops from the new Empress of Light variant: Radiant
  • Buffs every Empress of Light item:
    • Kaleidoscope: 50% chance to reduce the charge time by an extra second.
      • This may be changed in the future due to new datapack features introduced in 26.3.
    • Fluffy Hammer of Justice: 2x projectile speed.
    • Prismatic Punch: Double explosions
    • Prismember: Lower cooldown between attacks
    • Starstruck Shield: Summons extra stars with increased damage. Stars also give Holy Flames instead of Prismatic Inferno.
• Added Flavors of The Void
  • Can be caught in any biome through Void Fishing.
  • Cauldron Crafting version of the Endonomicon.
  • The book’s contents cannot be translated at this time.
  • Name suggested by @theorenith
• Updated Dragonblade
  • Now has a new inventory icon and 3d model
  • Resource Pack and Nullscape Compatibility Addon icons have also been updated to reflect this change.
• Updated Endonomicon
  • Finally functional! Lists all recipes for the Altar of The Accursed, with the exception of Void Pendant combinations.
  • The book’s contents cannot be translated at this time.
• Updated Explorer Maps
  • Now use a new texture to reflect 26.3 changes.
• Updated Kaleidoscope
  • Now inflicts the Holy Flames effect instead of regular fire.
• Updated Tamaris
  • Now has a 3 second safe period before a player can be executed again.
    • This prevents multiple people from using a Tamaris on one person at the same time, which could kill through totems.
• Updated Starstruck Shield
  • Stars now inflict Prismatic Inferno.
• Updated Void Pendant
  • Abilities now work with the Void Pendant in any slot.
    • This was how I originally intended the item to work, but the “any” slot type in the enchantment definition only applied to armor and weapon slots.
  • The Power ability has been fully implemented.
  • Vision can now make nearby entities glow when crouching.
    • There is a 45 second cooldown.
  • Wisdom has been changed to have a 5% chance of dropping XP on the user when taking damage to entities.
    • The old ability does not work in the new Void Pendant functionality.
  • Fortitude now gives + 1 armor toughness.
    • The old ability does not work in the new Void Pendant functionality.
  • Removed from Dungeon chests.
  • Updated to be way more common in shipwreck archeology loot.
• Updated some items to use spawn eggs with no entity data instead of materials as their base item.
  • This fixes certain items being able to be used to craft items they shouldn’t be used for. Also improves compatibility with other datapacks.

Blocks

• Added Altar of The Accursed
  • You can now give yourself the Altar of The Accursed.
  • Will always be the activated version, even if the Ender Dragon hasn’t been killed.
  • Will drop when destroyed in Creative Mode.
• Updated Pixie in a Jar
  • Now has a Radiant variant, dropped by the Radiant Empress of Light.
  • Collecting all variants of Pixie in a Jar will grant the Prismatic Collection advancement.

Entities

• Updated Empress of Light
  • Added Radiant variant. Summoned through holding a Kaleidoscope in your offhand and dropping a Starlight Soot in your main hand.
    • Like the Daylight EOL, it's attacks have buffed stats compared to it's previous variant. However, I want to highlight a few major changes with this variant:
      • Dashes in Stage 2 can now spawn Ethereal Lances and Prismatic Bolts. Dashes also have armor penetration.
      • Prismatic Bolts 1 bolts last longer
      • Prismatic Bolts 2 spawns more bolts.
      • Ethereal Lances launch faster
    • Spawn item will be changed to be something cooler in a future update, most likely dropping from the Radiant Pixie.
  • Health has been increased to 750 as voted on by members of the Prismatic Shards Discord server.
    • Night - 750
    • Daytime - 800
    • Radiant - 850
  • Fully implemented healing ability. This was implemented on accident in v5.0.0, but now it’s fully functional. This ability is only activated in stage 2, and only activates 3 times in the ability loop.
  • Updated Model! The EOL now has an animated model with texture differences for each variant: night, stage 2 night, daytime, and radiant.
    • Her wings are also now merged with the model, so they shouldn’t be glitchy like before.
    • Currently, she has four animations: idle, dash, healing, death.
  • Ethereal Lances now use item models. This should help reduce client side lag while fighting the boss.
  • Status messages now have different colors based on the variant of EOL.
• Updated Pixie
  • Added Radiant variant
    • 15% spawn chance
    • No special drops.. for now
• Updated End Animals
  • Now spawn naturally.
    • Before, illusioners were spawned and then converted into a random animal. This created a lot of issues, such as lag and entities spawning in the void.

Datapack Menu

• Added a dialog menu for configurations, commands, links, and a new item granter. Can be accessed through the main menu.
• Configurations
  • Includes all old configurations.
  • New Configurations:
    • Every weapon, tool, trinket, fish, potion, food, and spellbook can now be toggled.
      • When an item is disabled, it is disabled from loot tables, with some items having functions disabled entirely.
    • Empress of Light variants, Shulking, Ender Dragon, Pixie, and Harvester Mini-Boss now have their own configurations.
      • Spawning, Health, Music Loops
      • Includes already existing configs
• Commands
  • All commands (_cmd) can now be accessed through the new dialog menu. No new commands have been added in v6.0.0, but more may arrive in the future.
• Item Granter
  • There is now and item granter! By clicking on an item, you will be asked to run a /loot command, which will give you the item shown in the box. Currently, explorers maps are not included in this menu.
  • Items can still be obtained through /loot and /function stellarity:_cmd/. This is another option for those who don't understand commands or would prefer everything in a menu.
