Allthemodium is the flagship ore mod behind the legendary All the Mods modpack series, adding three powerful new ores that define end-game progression across three dimensions. The mod introduces Allthemodium, Vibranium, and Unobtainium, each requiring the previous tier to mine, along with unique tools, armor sets, weapons, and a dimension-hopping Teleport Pad. If you play All the Mods 9 or 10, this ore trio is the backbone of everything you want to build.
Getting Started with Allthemodium
The Allthemodium progression follows a strict gating system: each tier of ore requires the pickaxe from the previous tier to mine. Players who try to rush into the Deep Dark without the proper tools will be locked out entirely. Establish a solid base first, craft Netherite gear, then begin pursuing the Allthemodium ore chain step by step.
Find an Ancient City
Allthemodium Ore spawns exclusively in Deep Dark biomes inside Ancient Cities. Use an Explorer's Compass to locate an Ancient City directly, which is far more reliable than a Nature's Compass. The Nature's Compass will point you to any Deep Dark biome, but many Deep Dark biomes lack an Ancient City entirely.
Once inside the Ancient City, (Y below 0) scan the cave walls and ceilings for the ore. Allthemodium Ore has a bright, distinctive sheen that makes it easy to spot, resembling gold but with a much more intense glow. You will need a Netherite Pickaxe to mine them.
The ore can appear in both deepslate form (Allthemodium Slate Ore) and standard stone form, both of which yield the same material when mined.
Allthemodium ore requires a Netherite-level pickaxe as the minimum to mine it. Without one, you cannot begin the progression at all. Visit the Nether and collect Ancient Debris to smelt Netherite Scraps, then combine them with Gold Ingots to create a Netherite Ingot and upgrade your Diamond Pickaxe.
Ancient Cities are home to the Warden, one of the most dangerous mobs in the game. Even with the best gear available before Allthemodium armor, the Warden can kill you in one or two hits. Mine quietly, avoid triggering skulk sensors, and consider bringing a bucket of water or Potions of Invisibility to reduce your risk of detection by the Warden.
Find the Allthemodium Smithing Template
To upgrade your Netherite tools and armor into Allthemodium gear, you need the Allthemodium Smithing Template. This template is found by brushing Suspicious Clay blocks along the path leading to the portal frame inside the Ancient City. Look for a single clay block that is a slightly different shade of gray among the polished Basalt rings on the path.
Craft a Brush from sticks and feathers, then right-click the Suspicious Clay to extract the template.

Always duplicate the template before using it: place a template, Netherite Ingots, and Deepslate in a crafting table to create two templates from one.
Suspicious Clay spawns in place of Polished Basalt, which can be found on paths leading to the large portal found in the Ancient City. Often in unbroken rows, try to identify a lighter color block along the path.
Upgrade at the Smithing Table
Bring the Allthemodium Smithing Template, your Netherite pickaxe or armor, and Allthemodium Ingots to a Smithing Table. Slot the template, the Netherite item, and an Allthemodium Ingot to produce the Allthemodium version of that tool. Enchantments transfer automatically during the upgrade, so enchant your Netherite tools before upgrading.
With an Allthemodium Pickaxe in hand, you can now mine Vibranium Ore in the Nether, which is the next step in the progression.
The Allthemodium Pickaxe is indestructible, so it will never break regardless of how much you use it. The same applies to every weapon and tool in this mod: all of them display an Indestructible tooltip and cannot be worn down through use.
The Three Allthemodium Ores: Locations and Requirements
Each ore in the Allthemodium progression exists in a different dimension, with the next tier always requiring the previous tier's pickaxe to mine. The ores gate access to increasingly powerful gear and are the primary driver of late-game advancement in any modpack that includes this mod.
Allthemodium Ore
Allthemodium Ore spawns in the Deep Dark biome, specifically within Ancient City structures. The ore generates uniformly along cave walls and ceilings inside the city, making it relatively easy to spot once you are inside the structure area. Beware of the Warden.
It appears in both standard and Slate (deepslate) variants, both of which require a Netherite Pickaxe or better to mine.
Vibranium Ore
Vibranium Ore spawns in the Nether at Y 64 and above along cave walls, spread equally across all Nether biomes. It also appears in The Other dimension at Y 0 to 40 across all biomes, making The Other an excellent farming location once you can access it. Mining Vibranium requires an Allthemodium Pickaxe at a minimum. They can spawn in difficult-to-reach areas.
Because Vibranium spawns on high walls and ceilings in the Nether, a jetpack or other flight method makes finding it significantly faster. Build out platforms beneath ceiling deposits before mining them: falling into lava while carrying your first Vibranium Ingots is a painful setback.
Unobtainium Ore
Unobtainium Ore spawns exclusively in End Highlands biomes in the outer End islands.
It generates one to two blocks below the surface of these islands, so bring a pickaxe and dig down slightly if you are not finding any on the surface. A Vibranium Pickaxe or better is required to mine it, and fortune enchantments improve yield significantly.
Allthemodium Smithing Templates: How to Unlock Each Tier
Every tier upgrade in Allthemodium requires both the appropriate ingot and a Smithing Template specific to that tier. These templates are found in specific structures across three dimensions and must be duplicated before use. Losing your only template means returning to the original structure to find another, which can be especially painful for the Vibranium and Unobtainium templates.
Allthemodium Smithing Template
Found in Suspicious Clay inside Ancient Cities in the Deep Dark. The Suspicious Clay appears along the path leading to the central portal frame, replacing one of the polished Basalt blocks in the decorative rings.
Brush the clay with a Brush item to extract the template. To duplicate: place one template, Netherite Ingots, and Deepslate in a crafting table.
This template upgrades Netherite equipment to Allthemodium. You need one template slot plus one Allthemodium Ingot per item upgraded.
The upgrade preserves all enchantments, so fully enchant your Netherite gear before beginning the upgrade chain. The template is consumed during the upgrade, making duplication essential before you start crafting gear.
2Vibranium Smithing Template
Found in Suspicious Soul Sand inside a specific type of Bastion Remnant. The correct Bastion is identifiable by its large size and two-sided layout separated by Lava Lakes in the center.
The Suspicious Soul Sand can appear on bridges, walls, or at the base near small chests. Place a block underneath the Soul Sand before brushing it, since dropping it into the lava below destroys the template permanently.
To duplicate the Vibranium Template, use Allthemodium Ingots instead of Netherite Ingots, combined with Ancient Stone and one template. This template upgrades Allthemodium equipment to Vibranium, consuming one Vibranium Ingot per item.
2Unobtainium Smithing Template
The hardest template to obtain in the entire progression. It drops from a Trial Spawner inside an ATM Dungeon located in The Other dimension.
Completing the trial means defeating waves of Evokers and Vexes from a Trial Spawner inside a library-style room. The dungeon contains an enormous number of mob spawners throughout its floors, making it one of the most dangerous encounters in any ATM modpack.
Use Potions of Invisibility if possible: they let you navigate the dungeon without aggravating every spawner at once. If you prefer a direct approach, bring your best gear, a Shield, and plenty of healing. Find the library room on your map (it appears as a diamond-shaped room) and focus only on clearing the Trial Spawner. You do not need to clear the entire dungeon to get the template.
2Best Armor Sets in Allthemodium
All three armor sets share important passive properties: they make Piglins neutral toward you, allow walking on Powdered Snow, and provide continuously increasing protection at each tier. All armor pieces are indestructible with no durability loss. Every set grants exceptionally high Enchantability, making them excellent candidates for high-level enchantments that further boost protection.
Allthemodium
Vibranium
Unobtainium
Allthemodium Armor Set
The first major upgrade beyond Netherite, the Allthemodium Armor Set provides 24 total defense points with 5 toughness per piece. The full set is crafted by upgrading each Netherite armor piece through the Smithing Table using the Allthemodium Smithing Template and Allthemodium Ingots. Its enchantability of 85 per piece is higher than any vanilla armor, making it ideal for heavy enchantment investment.
The helmet provides health regeneration while swimming at night, giving the set a niche combat utility in underwater environments. The full set makes Piglins passive, which is useful for safe Bastion exploration when hunting the Vibranium Smithing Template. Knockback resistance of 0.5 per piece adds up to substantial reduction when wearing the full set.
Vibranium Armor Set
A significant leap from Allthemodium, the Vibranium Armor Set reaches 32 total defense with 9 toughness per piece. The higher knockback resistance of 0.8 per piece means the full set noticeably reduces how far hits send you flying, which matters in multi-mob combat scenarios common in The Other dimension. The enchantability of 105 per piece allows for excellent enchantment rolls at an Enchanting Table.
Unobtainium Armor Set
The pinnacle of the Allthemodium armor progression, the Unobtainium Armor Set reaches 40 total defense with 15 toughness per piece. The knockback resistance of 1.0 per piece is effectively full knockback immunity when wearing the full set, meaning hits from most enemies will not move you at all. The enchantability of 125 allows for maximum-level enchantment rolls, and the toughness value reduces the damage penalty from high-damage attacks more effectively than any earlier tier.
Best Weapons in Allthemodium
Every weapon in this mod is indestructible, eliminating durability as a concern. The weapons follow the same three-tier progression as the ores and armor. Each tier requires the corresponding Smithing Template and ingot to craft from the previous tier, and all display an Indestructible tooltip confirming they will never break regardless of use.
Allthemodium Sword
Allthemodium Sword
AllthemodiumThe Allthemodium Sword is a substantial upgrade over the Netherite Sword and serves as the workhorse weapon for most of the mid-game progression. Its high enchantability makes it an excellent canvas for Sharpness, Looting, and Sweeping Edge. Because it is indestructible, you can apply Looting III without worrying about durability trade-offs, and it will work indefinitely as a farming weapon.
Vibranium Sword
Vibranium Sword
AllthemodiumThe Vibranium Sword pushes damage well above the Allthemodium tier. It is the recommended weapon for tackling end-game structures in The Other dimension where the Unobtainium Smithing Template is found. The Vibranium Sword's attack speed is improved over the Allthemodium Sword, making it more comfortable in sustained combat scenarios against high-health enemies.
Unobtainium Sword
Unobtainium Sword
AllthemodiumThe Unobtainium Sword sits at the top of the three-tier upgrade chain and is one of the strongest weapons available before obtaining Alloy gear. Its attack speed is the highest of the three sword tiers, making it both fast and powerful. Pairing it with Sharpness V and Fire Aspect II turns it into a reliable weapon for any dimension-level combat the game can throw at it.
Allthemodium Alloy Blade
Allthemodium Alloy Blade
AllthemodiumThe Allthemodium Alloy Blade is the ultimate weapon in the mod. Crafted from Alloy Ingots made by combining two of the three ore types together, it deals damage that trivializes most encounters that would challenge earlier gear.
Players in the community describe it as ending boss fights in just a few swings. The Alloy Blade's attack speed is also the fastest of all the mod's weapons, pairing exceptional damage with aggressive tempo.
Recommended Enchantments for Allthemodium Weapons
All Allthemodium weapons share high enchantability, making them ideal candidates for top-tier enchantments. Because every weapon is indestructible, you never need Unbreaking, leaving all slots open for offensive and utility enchantments.
Allthemodium Tools and the Alloy Tier
Every tool in Allthemodium (pickaxe, axe, shovel, hoe) follows the same tier structure as the weapons and armor. All tools share 15,000 durability points and are marked Indestructible, meaning they will never degrade in practice. Mining speed and harvest level increase with each tier, gating access to the next ore type and all the blocks that require higher-tier mining.
Pickaxes: The Progression Gatekeepers
The Allthemodium, Vibranium, and Unobtainium Pickaxes each gate mining of the next ore tier. The Allthemodium Pickaxe enables Vibranium mining; the Vibranium Pickaxe enables Unobtainium mining.
All three have a mining speed of 10, which is faster than Netherite, and the Vibranium Pickaxe gains a double-speed bonus against mineable stone blocks. The Unobtainium Pickaxe has an eightfold speed bonus against stone, making strip mining exceptionally fast.
Allthemodium Alloy Tools
The Alloy tool set represents the highest tier in the mod: the Allthemodium Alloy Pick, Alloy Axe, Alloy Shovel, and the Allthemodium Alloy Paxel (a combined pick, axe, and shovel). These tools are crafted from Alloy Ingots created by combining two of the three ore types. All Alloy tools are indestructible, have the highest harvest level in the mod, and carry the same 15,000 durability rating though they will never use it.
The Alloy Paxel is particularly convenient: it functions as a pickaxe, axe, and shovel in a single item slot. For players who want to optimize their inventory space during mining or building, the Paxel eliminates the need to carry three separate tools. Its attack speed is 5.0, the highest in the mod, making it a reasonable combat weapon in a pinch even though dedicated swords deal more damage per hit.
Axes and Shovels
The Allthemodium, Vibranium, and Unobtainium Axes scale sharply in attack damage. The Unobtainium Axe reaches attack damage comparable to the Alloy Sword of the tier below it, making it a viable weapon for players who prefer axes.
The Alloy Axe carries the highest damage of any axe in the mod and exceeds the Unobtainium Sword in raw attack power. All axes share the indestructible property and high mining speed characteristic of this mod's tools.
Allthemodium Teleport Pad and Special Dimensions
The Teleport Pad is one of Allthemodium's most distinctive additions: a craftable block that teleports players to special dimensions inaccessible through vanilla portals. To use it, place the Teleport Pad on the ground, then sneak and right-click it with empty hands. The destination depends on which dimension you are currently standing in when you activate it.
Mining Dimension
Activating the Teleport Pad in the Overworld takes you to the ATM Mining Dimension: a flat, resource-rich dimension built for ore extraction. The top of the world starts at the surface and descends into a massive underground filled with dense ore veins, making it one of the best places to gather common materials in large quantities. Many modpack configurations place abundant ores here specifically to give players a dedicated mining space away from their main world.
The Other
Activating the Teleport Pad while standing in the Nether takes you to The Other: a custom dimension themed around a darker, more dangerous version of the Nether. The Other contains Vibranium Ore at Y 0 to 40 across all its biomes, making it an efficient Vibranium farming location. Its unique biomes include Ancient Crimson Forest, Ancient Warped Forest, Ancient Basalt Deltas, The Other Wastelands, and The Other Soul Sand Valley.
The Other also contains ATM Dungeons, large multi-floor structures filled with mob spawners, evokers, and Wither Skeletons. These dungeons house the Trial Spawner that drops the Unobtainium Smithing Template when completed.
The dungeons are far more dangerous than any Overworld structure, so full Vibranium or Unobtainium gear is recommended before attempting them. Using a compass to locate ATM Dungeons within The Other saves significant exploration time.
Place the pad on the ground, sneak (hold Shift), and right-click with empty hands. Activating it in the Overworld goes to the Mining Dimension; activating it in the Nether goes to The Other. Always keep a second Teleport Pad in your inventory so you can return from the destination dimension.
Allthemodium Foods and Consumables
Allthemodium adds three food items that provide powerful effects well beyond anything in vanilla Minecraft. All three can be eaten even when the hunger bar is full, making them reliable emergency healing tools during combat or exploration. The Allthemodium Apple and Allthemodium Carrot are crafted from their respective materials; Soul Berries grow on Ancient Vines found in the Ancient City and The Other.
Allthemodium Apple
Eating the Allthemodium Apple grants Regeneration II and Absorption II for 30 seconds. It restores 20 hunger points (10 shanks) and provides 2.0 saturation, making it an effective emergency food.
The Regeneration II effect heals you rapidly over the duration, while Absorption II adds temporary bonus hearts that absorb incoming damage before your real health is affected. It is one of the best panic-eating items in a crisis fight.
Allthemodium Carrot
The Allthemodium Carrot is the more powerful of the two food items, granting Regeneration III and Absorption III for 30 seconds. It restores 40 hunger points and 4.0 saturation, which is among the highest restoration values of any single food item in the game. Absorption III provides even more temporary bonus hearts than the Apple version, making it the preferred pre-fight consumable when preparing for tough encounters like the ATM Dungeon or Warden confrontations.
Ancient Soul Berries
Ancient Soul Berries grow on Ancient Vines found in Ancient Cities and The Other dimension. Eating them restores 5 hunger points with 4.0 saturation.
While not as powerful as the Apple or Carrot, they are renewable and farmable by cultivating Ancient Vines in your base. Ancient Soul Berries can be eaten while at full hunger, providing a consistent source of saturation during long expeditions.
The Allthemodium Piglich
The Piglich is a custom mob added by Allthemodium, an enhanced Piglin variant that spawns with Allthemodium Armor and is notably more dangerous than any standard Nether mob. It targets players, Skeletons, and Wither Skeletons on sight, and when struck by a player, summons waves of support mobs around itself to overwhelm the attacker. Its health pool is effectively endless in most survival scenarios.
Piglich
Allthemodium allthemodium:piglichThe Piglich's defining mechanic is summoning reinforcements when hit. Each hit triggers up to 5 mob spawns at nearby locations, drawing in skeleton archers, creepers, zombies, and other vanilla monsters to assist the Piglich.
In a confined ATM Dungeon corridor this can quickly become overwhelming. Fighting the Piglich in an open area gives you room to manage the summoned reinforcements without being flanked from multiple directions.
The Piglich drops the Piglich Heart, a rare crafting material used in various ATM modpack recipes. The Piglich Heart Block is a companion material used in block-based crafting.
Because of the Piglich's enormous health pool and summoning ability, bring your strongest gear, strong AoE weapons, and healing items before engaging one directly. Players wearing full Allthemodium armor (or better) can survive the initial burst of reinforcement mobs long enough to focus down the Piglich itself.
Allthemodium Ore Processing Guide
Allthemodium integrates with several common ore processing mods to allow yield multiplication beyond basic doubling. Understanding which processing route to use can dramatically increase your ingot output, especially given that the ores are player-mineable only and cannot be quarried in bulk.
Basic Doubling: Ore Hammer
The simplest processing method is the Ore Hammer. Place a hammer and an ore block together in any crafting grid to produce two dust pieces. Smelting the dust gives you one ingot each, effectively doubling your ore.
Fortune III on your pickaxe further multiplies raw ore drops before hammering. This method requires no automation or additional mods and is available from the moment you begin mining.
4
Mekanism Integration
The mod registers full Mekanism ore processing chains for all three ores, including Shards, Clumps, Dirty Dusts, and Crystals. Running ores through the Mekanism Ore Processing chain (crusher, washer, chemical crystallizer, enrichment chamber) can yield triple, quadruple, or quintuple ingots per ore block. This makes Mekanism machinery the most efficient way to stretch a limited ore supply once the infrastructure is built.

Alloy Ingots
Alloy Ingots are created by smelting Alloy Dust, which combines two of the three ore types together. The three alloy combinations are: Vibranium-Allthemodium Alloy, Unobtainium-Vibranium Alloy, and Unobtainium-Allthemodium Alloy.
The Alloy tools and Alloy Sword are crafted from these combined ingots and represent the final crafting tier of the mod. Processing ores with Mekanism before alloying them maximizes the alloy ingot yield per ore block mined.

9Tips for Success in Allthemodium
Establish your base before rushing the Ancient City. The biggest mistake new players make is going for Allthemodium before they have a comfortable mid-game base. You need a Netherite Pickaxe, which requires multiple Ancient Debris runs in the Nether.
Build a proper base, automate basic resource collection, and enchant your Netherite tools before touching the Ancient City. As one community guide puts it: "Don't try to get Allthemodium right away. That's tip number one."
Duplicate every Smithing Template immediately after finding it. Template loss is one of the most frustrating setbacks in the Allthemodium progression. The moment you brush a Suspicious Clay or Soul Sand and find a template, stop what you are doing and duplicate it before using any for upgrades.
Keep one spare template in an item frame as a visual reminder that you still have a backup. Running out mid-upgrade and having to return to The Other for the Unobtainium Template is an experience worth avoiding entirely.
Use the Ore Hammer on every ore block before smelting. This doubles your ingot output with zero infrastructure cost. Players frequently smelt raw ore directly out of habit from vanilla Minecraft and miss out on half their potential yield.
When combined with Fortune III on your pickaxe, a single Allthemodium mining session can produce several times more ingots than raw smelting would provide. The Ore Hammer works on all three tiers of ore.
Bring invisibility or sneak heavily in the Ancient City. The Warden respawns and cannot be permanently removed from an Ancient City. Even with top-tier gear, players have reported the Warden killing them in one or two hits before Unobtainium armor is available.
Move slowly, avoid breaking blocks near sculk sensors, and use Potions of Night Vision to spot ore without activating the Warden. Your first Allthemodium run should prioritize survival over thorough mining.
Plan your dimension routing around the Teleport Pad. Always carry at least two Teleport Pads: one to enter The Other or the Mining Dimension, and one to return home. Without a return pad, you will need to die or find another way back, which is costly when you are carrying freshly mined Vibranium or Unobtainium. A small Overworld outpost with a bed and a Teleport Pad near your home base makes the return trip instant and painless.
Frequently Asked Questions
No. Allthemodium Ore, Vibranium Ore, and Unobtainium Ore are all flagged as player-mineable only. Quarries, digital miners, and other automated mining machines cannot collect them. You must physically mine each ore block with the appropriate pickaxe tier. This design is intentional to prevent players from trivially mass-farming the ores and bypassing the progression gating.
Yes. All enchantments on the base item carry over when you upgrade it through the Smithing Table. This means you should fully enchant your Netherite tools before upgrading them to Allthemodium, and enchant your Allthemodium gear before upgrading to Vibranium. Enchanting at the Allthemodium tier is especially cost-effective given the high enchantability values of every piece in the set.
Vibranium Ore spawns at Y 64 and above along cave walls and ceilings in the Nether, spread equally across all Nether biomes. Because it spawns on walls and ceilings, flight (via jetpack or elytra) makes locating it much faster. It also appears in The Other dimension at Y 0 to 40 across all biomes, which can be more productive once you have access to the Teleport Pad.
The Piglich drops the Piglich Heart item and can also drop Piglich Heart Blocks. These materials serve as crafting components in various All the Mods modpack recipes. The specific recipes vary by modpack version, but Piglich Heart is typically an early high-tier crafting gate for advanced machines or items. Because the Piglich summons reinforcements when hit, farming them safely requires strong area-of-effect capabilities or tight corridors to control the summoned mobs.
The Other is a custom dimension exclusive to Allthemodium that contains additional Vibranium Ore deposits and ATM Dungeons with Unobtainium Smithing Templates. To reach it, craft the Teleport Pad item, place it in the Nether, then sneak and right-click it with empty hands. This transports you to The Other. To return, place another Teleport Pad in The Other and activate it to go back to the Nether. Always bring a return pad before entering.
Yes, significantly. The Alloy tier is the final and strongest tier in the mod, positioned above Unobtainium in the harvest level hierarchy. The Allthemodium Alloy Blade deals dramatically more damage than the Unobtainium Sword, and the Alloy tools have higher harvest priority for blocks that require Alloy-tier tools. All Alloy items are indestructible and share the same enchantability as the other tiers. They require Alloy Ingots crafted from combining two of the three ore types.
