Chapter 1: The Beginning

ATM10 is a Kitchensink pack, meaning you are free to explore and play the modpack any way that you want! However, there is an endgame goal: Making the ATM Star! This questline serves as a guide for all players, whether you are brand new to Minecraft or you've played through previous ATM packs. Just like almost every modpack, gather some wood to get started!

I'm going to assume you've been crafting, right? It is MineCRAFT after all. Sure, you could craft in your inventory using the 2x2 crafting grid, but that won't get you far. We need to upgrade by making a Crafting Table!

Asks for: Crafting Table

Personally, I hate having to run to a block just to craft. That's where the Crafting Table on a Stick comes in! This item works as a Portable Crafting Table! Tip: You can also put this in your Curios slot and set a Keybind to open it!

Asks for: Crafting Table

Whether you are an experienced modded player, or a complete noob to MC, everyone has to make a Wooden Pickaxe. Pickaxes allow you to break most stone and metal blocks. This wooden one won't last long, so make sure to gather some Cobblestone with it!

Asks for: Wooden Pickaxe

With our Wooden Pickaxe, stone shouldn't be a problem to break! Cobblestone unlocks the next part of progression by allowing you to craft a Furnace to smelt our ores. You'll also want to upgrade your pickaxe to stone to mine better ores like Iron!

Asks for: Furnace

I'm going to assume you've been out mining, right? It is MINEcraft after all. You'll find a ton of new ores that might confuse you, but you can stick to the vanilla materials to get you started! Copper is abundant and has plenty of uses for things like Ore Hammers or Drawer Upgrades, so make sure to grab plenty of it! Iron is probably one of the most important ores you'll want to get every time you run into it. The world of modded MC pretty much runs on Iron.

Asks for: Copper Ingot, Iron Ingot

Coal is your first real source of power. If you are running low and can't find any Coal, an alternative would be to use Charcoal.

With our new metals, we can upgrade our Furnace using the mod Iron Furnaces! Iron Furnaces (Furnaces from the mod itself, not just the Iron version) allow you to add Augments to upgrade a Furnace's speed, change its function, and much more! These Furnaces make automation easier by allowing you to auto-pull or push from the sides using the config on the left of the interface.

Asks for: Copper Furnace, Iron Furnace, Stone to Copper Furnace Upgrade, Stone to Iron Furnace Upgrade

Achaeology allows players to find items inside of Suspicious blocks like Sand and Gravel. These blocks can be found in various structures like Warm Ocean Ruins, Desert Pyramids, Desert Wells, and Trail Ruins. To uncover an item from a Suspicious block, you need to create a Brush to brush away the block to unveil an item.

Asks for: Brush

Smelting down raw ores in the beginning is necessary, but you are missing out on extra resources! There are several ways to double your output per raw ore, but one of the easiest ways is by creating and using an Ore Hammer. These will break down 1 raw ore into 2 ore dust, which can be smelted into ingots, effectively doubling your ingot output! Want more per raw ore? Check out the mod Occultism!

We also have the mod called Generators Galore! This mod adds unique generators that use coal or other items.

Asks for: Copper Generator

The next step of progression is to make an Iron Pickaxe. This pickaxe can mine some of the rarer ores in the game, including Diamond!

Asks for: Iron Pickaxe

Once you have an Iron or better tier Pickaxe, you'll be able to mine Redstone. Redstone starts your journey into many technical mods, like creating power or making fancy gadgets. This is a resource you will want a lot of!

Asks for: Redstone

Transferring power out of your generators is probably a good idea, but how can you do it? To start, you can use Energy Pipes from the Pipez mod, or you can use the Powah Energy Cables if you have already started using that mod. Or if you want a throwback, this pack has EnderIO and you can use the Energy Conduits from it.

Asks for: Basic Universal Cable, Energy Pipe, Energy Cable (Basic)

There are many ways to store power! Powah offers great storage using Energy Cells that can be upgraded, or you can always go with the multiblock style of RFTools using Powercells! The choice is yours. Note: You only have to make one of the items to complete the quest.

Asks for: Basic Energy Cube, Energy Cell (Starter)

To find this egg, you'll need to brush away Suspicious Sand in Warm Ocean Ruins. You can place the Egg into the world and it will slowly hatch into a Snifflet. This takes around 20 minutes to hatch normally, but can be placed on a Moss block to double the hatch speed, taking only 10 minutes to hatch. The Snifflet will eventually grow into an adult Sniffer that can sniff up items like Torchflower Seeds or Pitcher Pods when they wander over blocks they can dig in. You can breed 2 adult Sniffers by using Torchflowers.

Asks for: Sniffer Egg

Buckets and Tanks are a great early way to move around lava.

Asks for: Basic Fluid Tank, Bucket

Now that you have all this lava what will you do with it? More early game power!

Asks for: Magmatic Generator, Magmator (Basic), Magmator (Starter)

If you are like most this is the power you are after. All you do is place it as high as you can and get free power.

Asks for: Wind Generator

Just like wind generation this will give you lots of power without giving it any resources. The only downside here is it has to be daytime.

Asks for: Solar Generator, Solar Panel (Basic)

Diamonds are one of the best materials to use for tool crafting, but they also allow you to visit new dimensions like the Twilight Forest!

Asks for: Diamond

With a Diamond tier pickaxe, you'll be able to mine Obsidian. Obsidian can be used to create a portal to the Nether. The portal frame can be many different sizes, but most go with the basic 'Door' shape. This is a hollow 4x5 shape using a minimum of 10 Obsidian. You don't have to use Obsidian for the corners, just the portal frame itself!

Asks for: Obsidian

To create Netherite tools and armor you'll need to find the Netherite Smithing Template in chests found inside of Bastions. These can be combined with a Netherite ingot and a Diamond tool or armor piece in a Smithing Table to upgrade it to Netherite. Tip: Don't use all of your templates in one go! You can create duplicates by using the recipe to create another.

Asks for: Netherite Upgrade Smithing Template

This quest only requires you to make one Diamond tool or armor piece, but it's probably good to get a full set! Diamond tools boast high durability, and the armor offers great protection overall. To make the better tools and armor in the game, you'll need Diamond stuff as a base!

Asks for: Diamond Axe, Diamond Boots, Diamond Chestplate, Diamond Helmet, Diamond Hoe, Diamond Leggings

To summon the boss of the Nether, we need to gather a few items first. We'll need to get at least 3 Wither Skeleton Skulls. These are rare drops from killing Wither Skeletons, or can be crafted with the more common drop, the Wither Skull Fragments. You'll also need at least 4 pieces of Soul Sand, and probably some pretty good armor.

Asks for: Soul Sand, Wither Skeleton Skull

In the Nether, you'll run into Ancient Debris. This can be smelted down into Scraps that can be combined with Gold to create Netherite Ingots, which is an endgame metal used to craft some of the strongest tools and armor in the game.

Asks for: Netherite Ingot

Netherite items are even better overall, and won't burn in lava! You still will though, even wearing the armor. Don't try it out. These items can be used to make some of the best tools and armor in the game.

Asks for: Netherite Axe, Netherite Boots, Netherite Chestplate, Netherite Helmet, Netherite Hoe, Netherite Leggings

Once you've gathered enough Ender Pearls and Blaze Powder, you can make your way to the End Portal in the Overworld. To do this, craft some Eyes of Ender and right click to throw them in the sky. These will point in the direction of the closest End Portal. Make your way to the Stronghold, find the End Portal, and complete the frame using the Eyes of Ender to create the portal to The End.

Asks for: Ender Eye

The Wither is one of the hardest bosses to kill in Minecraft. Mainly because it flies. And explodes. And is fast. You get the picture. To summon it, place down the 4 Soul Sand in the shape of a T. Place the 3 Wither Skeleton Skulls on the top of the 'T' and the Wither will spawn. Tip: It explodes. A lot. Don't do this near your base.

This biome was introduced in the Wild Update! Be careful! You might accidentally summon a new friend. P.S. - He's not friendly.

The Warden can be summoned by setting off a Sculk Sensor that is near a Sculk Shrieker at least 3 times. Fun Fact: The Warden is blind! It can only find you if it hears you, so either fly around or sneak! Tip: It doesn't matter if you use Ranged or Melee attacks, because it will find you. And it will hit you. If you go too far, it'll burrow into the ground and come up next to you! Good luck :D

In The End, you'll find the final boss of Vanilla Minecraft: The Ender Dragon. At the top of each pillar of Obsidian, you'll find an End Crystal that heals the Dragon. Make sure to take those out first! They also deal a lot of damage when they explode, so make sure to create some distance! Once defeated, a Dragon Egg spawns at the top of the Exit Portal. This cannot be mined like normal blocks, but is affected by gravity.

Armor Trims are items used to add trims to your armor! This can be done in Smithing Tables. While they do have a recipe, most of the trims are rare finds in from loot chests or archaeology digs. Once you find one, you can dupe the Template by using the recipe to create more!

As was mentioned before, this mod adds a ton of fun ways to generate power that require specific builds.

Asks for: Enchantment Generator, Halitosis Generator, Netherstar Generator, Potion Generator

Augments are Furnace upgrades that can either change or upgrade the function of a Furnace. - Blasting: Converts the Furnace to only allow for Blasting recipes. - Smoking: Converts the Furnace to only allow for Smoking recipes. - Factory: Converts the Furnace to use power instead of fuel, and upgrades it to a factory, allowing it to smelt multiple items at once. This increases depending on the tier of Furnace. - Speed: Doubles the speed of the furnace at the cost of double the fuel. - Fuel Efficiency: Doubles the amount of items smelted per fuel, but reduces the speed by 25%

Asks for: Augment: Blasting, Augment: Factory, Augment: Fuel Efficiency, Augment: Generator, Augment: Smoking, Augment: Speed
