Arid is a biome overhaul addon that adds tons of new content into Desert biomes. You should hopefully find deserts more enjoyable and rewarding to explore. In Arid you will find new ores, dungeons, mobs, bosses, cool weapons, and lots of other content.

New Blocks

ADVERSITE

There are many new natural blocks that will spawn in desert caves. You can even get a new ore.

Some blocks spawn in different Y levels but know that the ore, known as Desert Crystal will always spawn at Y 65 or lower!

The blocks are purely for decoration, except for the ore. The ore can be used to craft new gear.

The New Blocks That Can Generate:

Mica
Sandy Gneiss
Quartz Gneiss
Schist
Desert Crystal Ore

Desert Crystal Ore will turn into a deepslate variant if it spawns below 0! It is slightly tougher to mine, but will be more common than the stone counterpart.

ADVERSITE

These 2 blocks of packed geode stones/deepslate. When they are broken open, you have a chance of getting 0-2 geodes (stone or deepslate depending on the one you mined). They may be tricky to spot, but they are much more darker than their normal variants.

From Y 0-45 you will find Stone Packed Geodes, from -20-0 you will find Deepslate Packed Geodes.

Desert Crystal Gear

All Desert Crystal tools and armor have a durability of 325.

Crafted the same as vanilla gear.

Sword: 6.5 Attack

Axe: 5.5 Attack

Pickaxe: 4.5 Attack, can break whatever an Iron Pickaxe can

Hoe: 4.5 Attack

Shovel: 3.5 Attack

Armor provides 9.5/10 bars. Thats 0.5 less then Diamond/Netherite.

New Foods

This food is Meifrisa. It is quite easy to obtain and is a very useful food. When eaten, Meifrisa will give Saturation for 60 seconds as well as Regeneration 2 for 5 seconds.

ADVERSITE

This is the desert blend, a useful potion that gives various effects to help you in combat.

Structures

Sand Dunes just add to the environment to make it look nicer. There are 3 variants of it, tiny, medium and large.

This is a Dead Tree, this is a good early wood source. There are 3 variants, small, medium, and large.

This is the Oasis, this is a good source of coconuts, water, and wood.

The Palm Logs can be turned into planks.

ADVERSITE

The Planks can be used for slabs/stairs too.

You can also make wooden tools, sticks, and a crafting table.

The coconuts can be used for a new potion. That provides useful effects.

To craft this potion you will need coconuts and Desert Crawler Eyes. Desert Crawler Eyes drop off of Desert Crawlers, more information on them below.

The Splitter (Massive Change Since V1.2!)

ADVERSITE

Ever since V1.2 for Arid was released, I have revamped the Splitter and gave it an entirely new functionality. It still splits items, but now it doesn’t give you a crafting UI. Instead, you need a specific item in your hand in order for it to work. Then right click/long tap on it to split your item.

The following items are splitter compatible:

Stone Geode
Deepslate Geode
Coconut

When splitting geodes, you will get 1 of 3 different gemstones. Amethyst, Emerald, or Diamond. Normal stone geodes give the most Amethyst, while Deepslate geodes give the most Emerald and Diamond gems.

The Pyramid Dungeon

This is a huge dungeon full of many surprises, mobs, treasures, and lots of fun!

There is also a boss battle at the end!

I will not spoil the inside, so have fun exploring 🙂

ADVERSITE

Ruined Tower

This is a small little tower that will generate very rarely throughout the deserts. In these towers, you will find some mobs and a special new sword called the Dark Blade

Dark Blade:

10 Damage
100 Durability

Watcher’s Tower

A brand new challenging dungeon! This tower will generate rarely throughout deserts. Inside you will find many floors full of hostile mobs. The higher you go, the more stronger mobs will get. You will even find a brand new mob and boss in it (more info on them in Mobs section)

As a bonus, you will find a new Tier 2 loot crate called the Fleshy Loot Crate. This loot crate will have mid tier loot inside.

ADVERSITE

Cactus W/ Flower

A new cactus variant that spawns quite uncommonly throughout the deserts. On top of them, you will find a cactus flower.

You can either use the flower as decoration or turn it into pink dye!

Scathing Sand Clumps

These are new sand blocks that will generate throughout your deserts. The sand is a duller color than normal sand. The special feature about this sand, is that it will hurt any entity that steps on it. So, you can use these as traps!

The Crypt

The crypt is currently the largest structure in Arid. Spanning from 40+ rooms, 15+ secrets, +1 new boss, puzzles, lots of loot, new mobs, and tons of exploration! I hope you enjoy exploring the crypt and finding all the secrets. Some may reward you greatly

ADVERSITE

The crypt has a lot to offer in terms of content.

Let’s start off with the inside images.

Theres a tons of rooms inside, every room (well most anyways) look different from one another.

Next up, the mobs.

This is the forgotten mummy. It will spawn in deep levels of the crypt. It is quite strong compared to the normal mummy. It moves significantly faster too.

Stats:

Health: 32

Damage (Melee): 7

ADVERSITE

This is forgotten pharaoh, the boss of the crypt. You will find him early on, but I wouldn’t recommend fighting him straight away. This boss has 2 phases.

(In order to spawn him, you will need to break his totem, which is behind him next to the candles in the picture)

Phase 1 (Ranged, summoner)

Health: 500

Attacks: Ghast Fireball, Blaze Fireball, Ender Dragon Fireball (These have different attack speeds)

Moves slow

Summons 5 Forgotten Mummies around every 30 or more seconds.

Phase 2 (Melee, summoner, buffer)

Phase 2 is when the fight will really get hard.

Health: 1000

Attack Damage: 10

Moves insanely fast (will outrun you, unless you got swiftness 2)

Summons 2 Forgotten Mummies every 20 or more seconds

Will buff any nearby Forgotten Mummies with swiftness 2.

Can summon lightning around himself.

Upon killing his Phase 2, he will drop all of his loot and a lot of XP. Not only that, but you can respawn him, using the following recipe below.

The items in there are mummy cloth (drops off mummies), mysterious cloth (drops off of Forgotten Mummy and Pharaoh), and obsidian. You can then place this anywhere and then break it to spawn him in.

Loot:

The Forgotten Pharaoh has 4 (1 being an artifact) dedicated drops.

Dark Blade (10% drop)
Uraeus of Corruption (15% drop)
Staff of Corruption (10% drop)
Sword of the Forgotten (100%, artifact)

Uraeus of Corruption, just armor, gives 3 full bars and has 750 durability.

Staff of Corruption, new magic weapon that will insta kill any NON boss or player and resurrect them as a Forgotten Mummy. Has 500 durability, each activation will consume 25 duability, it has a cooldown of 25 seconds. Reanimations will last for 20 seconds.

ADVERSITE

They are both also repairable.

(Mysterious Cloth)

And finally, artifacts! There are 4 artifacts within the crypt. You will get 1 from the boss, and 3 in 3 different sections of the crypt. I will not show there locations, so have fun hunting for them 🙂

To make it worthwhile, here is what they can turn into
