MythicDrops

QuickLinks:

MythicDrops is the plugin used to handle weapon/tool/armour drops from mob kills that gives a bit of variety to what you can find.
For example you’ll most commonly (though not too frequently) come across items with no to one or two low level enchants in the Common tier, for example:

junk

The item tiers available go:

Each tier has different amounts of potential enchantments and how many enchantments they can spawn with, and a different amount of potential empty cores (see below).

Exotic is a strange exception to the main rules for the tiers - it is slightly more common to find than it’s equivalent normal tier (Epic) but will also come with Curse of Vanishing as standard and a slightly lower top level for some enchants etc.. (ie they are as good as most of the drops from their respective normal tier, will drop more regularly but will also be lost if you die with them in your inventory).

For example, you may find an Exotic item such as this:

artisan

And then there is the Crystalline rank - the rarest and best you can find, only from Ender Dragon kills or event/competition rewards. As an example you may find this:

legendary

Each tier has different potential item drops and drops from different mobs - which mobs drop what tier and what tier contains what items you’ll have to find out for yourself! As a general example however without ruining everything - you won’t get diamond items in the Common tier, and rarer enemies will only drop rarer tiers (ie if you summon a Wither it will only drop Epic or Legendary level items)

Empty Cores and Spirit Essences

Along with these drops there is a potential for the item to have empty cores - these allow you to attach a Spirit Essence to that item!

There are a number of spirit essences available, ranging from adding an effect when hitting something with your weapon/tool to increasing enchantment levels - all of which will drop as a rare drop when killing any hostile or neutral mobs (ie not farm animals..).

When they drop they will look something like this:

essence

To use them simply pick the item up in your inventory and right click on the item you wish to add it to! The essence will give an indication of what it can be added to in it’s lore, in the Type(s) line:

essencelore

To clarify it’ll say either:

Spirit Essence Types

There are a number of different types of Spirit Essence that all do something different! You can use this list as a rough guide.

Combining Essences

You can now also mix your essences together to make them stronger! Your essences will state if they can be combined (they will have a line in their lore that starts with Family:) - to do so you will need 4 of the exact same essence, same family and level.

When you have your 4 essences, go to /mdcombiner (or /mdc for short) and click on the chest to open the Combiner!

combiner

combinermenu

Click the 4 essences in your inventory to add them, and the bottom empty slot in the combiner will change into a nether star to confirm they are okay to merge - click the star to get your upgraded essence!

Spirit Core Extenders

You may come across an item called a Spirit Core Extender here and there - they will be a gold nugget that looks like this:

mdextender These allow certain items to receive an extra Empty Core for you to add Spirit Essences to - simply pick the extender up and right click onto an item to add the additional Empty Core!

This cannot be done to any item however - only items with Extender Slots can use these items, such as this:

mdextslot

Fixing Invalid Enchants

MythicDrops is supposed to honour Vanilla enchantment rules, but it often fails to do so - for example the same pickaxe should never have both Fortune and Silk Touch… but you’ll find some that do.

Some enchants that you can’t get on the same item in singleplayer/100% Vanilla setups still work fine together (like Smite and Sharpness) so those we’re not bothered about but a few pairings stop one or both of the enchants working at all, so we have scripted a command to fix this!

The pairings you can use this command to fix are:

To fix these pairings simply hold the item with the two enchants present on it and do:

This will remove the enchant that you named in the command, but leave any others. The item must have both enchants of the pair - it cannot be used to remove other enchants, or these 6 enchants if they’re not on an item at the same time as the other enchant from the pair.
