Charoite

Raw Charoite (left) and Charoite (right)

Charoite is one of two diamond-equivalent ores alongside Diopside in the Blue Skies mod. Although it's available in both the Everbright and Everdawn dimensions, Charoite is more common in the Everdawn. Charoite can be found between Y-level 16 and Y-level 1, although the most effective y-level to mine it is 11. To craft anything using Charoite (other than a Block of Raw Charoite), it must be smelted first. Unlike Diopside, Charoite's weapons, armour, and tools all have the same stats as their Diamond equivalents.

## **Obtainment, Items and Crafting**

### **Ores and Items**

**Charoite Ore**

Charoite Ore can be found underground in both the Everdawn and Everbright dimensions between Y-levels 1 and 16; being more common in the Everdawn. When mined without using the Silk Touch enchantment, it will drop 1 Raw Charoite (without Fortune) and can only be mined using a *<still finding out, so far Aquite works>* pickaxe. Note that even though Blue Skies items have overworld tool equivalents, Charoite ore must be mined only using Blue Skies pickaxes or else no raw Charoite will drop. Otherwise, the ore block itself can be obtained by mining it using a pickaxe enchanted with Silk Touch. **Beware** - Charoite Ore and Falsite Ore are very similar in appearance, so keep their distinctions in mind when mining!

Raw Charoite is obtained by mining Charoite Ore (1 Ore mined gives 1 Raw Charoite without using the Fortune enchantment). It is not used for anything in its un-smelted form except for crafting the Block of Raw Charoite.

**Charoite**

"Normal" Charoite (just called "Charoite") can be obtained by either smelting Raw Charoite in a Furnace (1 Raw Charoite giving 1 "normal" Charoite) or putting a Block of Charoite into a crafting table (1 Block of Charoite giving 9 Charoite). "Normal" charoite is used in all Charoite-related crafting recipes except the Block of Raw Charoite.

### **Blocks**

**Block of Charoite**

The Block of Charoite is similar to a Block of Iron, Diamond, etc., being crafted using 9 Charoite in a Crafting Table. The Block of Charoite can also be put into a crafting table to exchange it back into 9 Charoite.

**Block of Raw Charoite**

The Block of Raw Charoite is the Raw Charoite equivalent for the Block of Charoite, being crafted using 9 Raw Charoite and can also be put into a crafting table to exchange it back into 9 Raw Charoite.

### **Armour**

All Charoite armour is crafted in the same way as overworld diamond armour (5 for a helmet, 8 for a chestplate, 7 for leggings, and 4 for boots). Each armour piece has equivalent stats to their Diamond armour equivalents:

To know what each stat means and other details, see the *Armor* page in the Minecraft Wiki.

### **Weapons & Tools**

All Charoite weapons and tools are crafted in the same way as overworld ones. Like all Blue Skies weapons and tools, certain effects can be applied using the Tool Box. Each weapon and tool has equivalent stats to their Diamond equivalents:

Charoite Sword and its crafting recipeCharoite Pickaxe and its crafting recipeCharoite Axe and its crafting recipeCharoite Shovel and its crafting recipeCharoite Hoe and its crafting recipe
