Hard Diamond Challenge
Diamond ore doesn't exist anymore, it is iron instead, you can't craft diamond gear (you'll have to find it) and there are no villages (you'll have to find and cure a zombie villager)
With the new Copper Update, i wanted to make the early game stage longer so you have to actually use copper gear.
-
Diamond ore doesn't exist anymore, instead it was replaced with iron ore. Original iron ore was replaced with copper ore, and original copper ore also doesn't exist. You'll have to dive in the caves with precaution.
-
Diamond gear crafts are no longer available. This means that if you want to enchant your early game gear, you'll have to find and loot 4 obsidian blocks since you can't craft a diamond pickaxe. Diamond gear would be obtainable by looting or trading.
-
Villages will no longer spawn. If you want to enable trading you'll have to find and cure a zombie villager, two if you want to reproduce them. This will delay diamond gear trading and early iron farms (this is the sad part, we are removing a structure and it's loot for the sake of the challenge).
-
Ancient debris also doesn't exist, so no nether strip mining. Instead you'll have to loot bastions for the upgrade and look for netherite scrap, netherite ingot or netherite gear.
IMPORTANT: This datapack was meant to be played without eating health regeneration! For more pleasure Ultra Hardcore Craft (UHC) is the way to go.
Tutorial: Download the datapack, start 1.21.9 version or above, create a new hardcore world, go to More, Data Packs and drag the zip file in (don't be scared by the red colour of the pack, it will work with the version), put it in Selected and Done, go to Game Rules and turn "Regenerate Health" off, start the world and enjoy!
