Noxus

more balance tweaks, qol, and further optimizations.

• bandages and splints are now shapeless recipes, no longer needing a crafting table.
• block-breaking-hardness-cutoff for mobs has been slightly adjusted, from 3.0 to 3.5. this allows them to break blocks such as wooden doors, endstone, non-deepslated ores, and deepslate itself. however, player-affected (cobbled, polished, etc.) deepslate is 3.5, still providing a valuable way of defense for bases.
• reinforced deepslate is now mineable, and can be obtained with a netherite pickaxe.
• mob spawners hardness have been increased to 25 (somewhere between an enderchest and ancient debris).
• mob farms are nerfed; spawners now having a limited amount of spawns (80) before going obsolete.
• blazes and wither skeletons are slightly nerfed, no longer emitting dangerous auras that applied to the player when near them.
• removed puzzleslib and all dependent mods.
• updated following mods: collective, terrastorage, and notenoughanimations.
• added following mods: elytra slot, charm-of-undying, better archeology, and extended bonemeal.
• made enchantments from better archeology compatible with the new enchanting system.
• added fast items mod for shaderpack theming. if you do not use rudimentary or just don't like it you can disable it in the config!
• added an expensive recipe for netherite smithing template, you no longer have to only resort to finding it if you're rich enough.
• changed netherite smithing template dupe recipe to use gold blocks instead of diamonds. i felt like the material cost of diamond templates already made you use a plethora of diamonds for gear progression, so i wanted to shift the focus; netherite gear will be a bigger dependent on gold now!
• added more optimization mods: krypton, scalablelux, async, redirected, and sepals (sepals is only serversided and experimental, remove if it's causing problems).
• updated shaderpack.
