Top 50 Best Minecraft 1.16.5 Mods that are Worth Trying!

Hey guys for my longest video yet i put together a list of my favorite 50 mods for minecraft 1.16.5 i tested these using forge but some have fabric versions too which i’ll leave a link to but before getting into the video this week i got my first ever sponsor

Who have helped me put together this longer video you guys know that minecraft was originally solely developed by notch and while what he created was incredible these days anyone can learn to become a game developer core is a platform where you not only play games but you can create them yourself

All for free it’s powered by unreal engine and is full of community made games which are really fun to play there are endless possibilities when it comes to genres and there’s chilled survival based games like minecraft to more competitive styled games which include shooters and sports based games

Because the games are made by people like us you’re bound to find something that piques your interest with there being thousands of different games available one of my favorites that i’ve been playing is farmer’s market which i’ve spent a lot of time relaxing on between videos

You can own a farm grow crops go metal detecting and catch fish which helps you upgrade your farm and climb the leaderboards so make sure to check core out and show them some support it’s completely free and you’ll find the link in the description if you sign up

Make sure to add me too my username is powerdown and i’ll be online when this video is live now let’s get back to our mod list iron chess will add some new tiers to chess so that they now have different storage amounts regular chests can be upgraded from wood to have iron gold

Diamond and crystal variants with crystal ones allowing you to see the items inside storage drawers is another storage mod but this one’s a little more immersive in my opinion each block contains drawers and a drawer can only store a single type of item but multiple stacks of it by left and

Right clicking on a drawer you can quickly deposit and withdraw items giving you quick access to your most important materials biom’s aplenty will add over 70 new biomes to your world making a lot more diverse and interesting to explore some of the most noticeable changes include new trees flowers and decorative blocks

Although if you’re looking for a different biomod you can also check out oh the biomes you’ll go Cork aims to improve vanilla minecraft adding tons of new changes and additions to the game a lot of changes are made to caves as you’ll find cave roots growing from walls which can provide food allowing you to mine for longer cave generation is also changed with new crevices

Biomes mega caves and dungeons all spawning below the surface cork also adds a few new mobs such as crabs foxhounds and frogs but honestly cork adds so many more features that make it a very worthy mod to use swing through grass is a small mod that makes a big difference

When attacking mobs that are inside of grass you no longer break the grass or miss your attacks which is incredibly useful Aquaculture 2 expands on the already existing fishing system adding over 30 new fish to catch all of which can be found in different biomes there’s also some new fishing rods which allow you to use bait and equip hooks which help with catching fish faster and reducing the durability usage

Comforts will add some items which help with sleeping in minecraft there’s a sleeping bag and hammock with each one allowing you to set night to day or day to night they come in lots of different colors and don’t set your spawn point making them great to take out when exploring

Cosmetic armor reworked allows you to wear two sets of armor at once with each one serving a different purpose from now on you’ll be able to wear a set of armor for function and another for appearance as an example you can wear dyed leather armor but have the stats of enchanted diamond armor

Young’s better mine shafts will transform all the mine shafts in your world making them more interesting and unique each mine shaft will now have a different design depending on the biome it spawns in you’ll also find a few new rooms such as abandoned workstations cellars and outposts which can contain loot

Alongside the mineshaft’s mod i also like to install young’s better caves generally the caves are transformed so they’re more cavern-like and don’t reach constant dead ends in small tunnels there’s a few new different types of caves too as you’ll be able to find flooded caverns underground lakes and more

The tool belt can store any non-stackable item but it’s especially useful for tools starting out the tool belt will have two slots but can be upgraded by using pouches to hold up to nine items instead by pressing r you can open the belt and quickly switch between items

Allowing you to save inventory space and time scrolling through your hotbar with gravestones installed you’ll receive coordinates after dying in minecraft which take you back to your grave if you then break it you’ll receive all your items back preventing you from losing your inventory and removing the time limit Dungeon crawl will cause large dungeons to spawn on the surface of your world you can enter them and work your way down as you defeat hordes of mobs there is loot on each floor which usually consists of food enchanted gear and materials overall they’re quite difficult to defeat but also very worth it

Valhelia structures will generate some new buildings in minecraft which include castles ruins houses and even a dungeon they spawn randomly and some even make good accommodation for the player the mining helmet removes the need to use torches and caves you can now craft the helmet using three

Iron ingots two leather and a lantern when you wear this item the area around you will light up allowing you to easily explore any dark areas Just enough items will add a new interface to the right side of your inventory you can now hover over items and press r to see its recipe or you to see what recipes it’s used in find me will allow you to search for an object in nearby inventories

All you need to do is hover over something and press the y key it also has support for just enough items so whatever you’re looking for doesn’t need to be in your inventory Scuba gear adds a full outfit which provides some bonuses when underwater the helmet grants water breathing the chest plate allows you to mine at regular speeds leggings give you a swimming speed boost and the boots allow you to walk quicker when on the ocean floor you can start

Finding these pieces by locating drowned near ocean monuments who’ll spawn wearing the equipment tough as nails has been mentioned in a few of my videos but it’s now been made available for newer versions of minecraft currently it adds a thirst mechanic to the game which is another element of survival

It also adds body temperature which is currently missing but is due to be added once minecraft 1.17 releases there’s also new blocks and items which help manage these mechanics to the bat poles adds a new method of transportation when moving vertically you can create poles lace them going

Down and jump at them to slide down though they are one-way only useful railroads has a few new items which aids with mine carts there’s high-speed rails which of course allow minecarts to move much faster on these tracks teleport rails can be used to teleport mine carts to different tracks

Even through dimensions and direction rails can be used to force a mine cart to only move in one direction security craft adds quite a few new items which help to keep your base and loot safe with one of my favorites being the cctv cameras which you can set up and look

Through from anywhere in your world you can also have password-protected chess retinal scanner doors and a universal block reinforcer which causes blocks to be invulnerable extra boats add some new type of boats which are very useful you can combine a boat with a chest allowing you to carry more items on adventures

Alternatively by placing a furnace in a boat you can fuel it to make it go faster one of my favorites is a large boat which can hold up to four entities although it’s slightly slower than regular boats carry on allows you to pick up and carry single block entities

This includes the like of chess furnace and even some animals i love to use this mod so i can move around already filled chess instead of destroying them or requiring a lead for animals falling trees allows you to bring down entire trees when breaking a single block

There are two different modes which are instantaneous and shift down this mod is a must-have in my opinion as it saves a lot of time when collecting wood traveler’s backpack is one of the most well-known backpack mods mainly because it doesn’t require the chest slot it provides a lot of bonus storage space

Allows you to carry liquids and even has a built-in sleeping bag and crafty table curio of undyne adds a new slot to your inventory which is a charm slot it can hold your totem of undyne and allows it to be activated if you die freeing up your offhand slot

The water strainer is a block that can be placed in water causing it to collect common resources over time it will gradually collect items like sand gravel and clay though you have full control over what items it collects by editing the config files tumbleweeds will mostly spawn in deserts around dead bushes

They’ll float around and add a little more immersion into these locations although if you harvest them you can get drops such as seeds sticks and even minerals repurpose structures will take a lot of minecraft’s vanilla structures and make them more interesting and unique as each one will now have multiple

Variants you’ll find new types of shipwrecks mansions fortresses and temples there’s also some completely new additions such as dungeons outposts and cities in the nether Craftable horse armor and saddles adds a few new recipes now you’ll be able to craft iron gold and diamond horse armor as well as a saddle so you can get started with a mount quickly first aid disables minecraft’s natural health regeneration the health bar is also replaced with an rpg styled setting

Where each body part has its own individual health some new items are added which are bandages and plasters which are now used to heal body parts depending on the part of you that’s injured you’ll experience different debuffs some examples include slowness with injured feet or nausea if you have head injuries

Camera mod allows you to take pictures inside your world you can apply filters and store them inside albums alternatively you can display them inside frames which can be shown in your world similar to paintings reap is a simple mod which makes a huge quality of life change

When farming you now only need to right-click crops to harvest them and the seeds will also automatically be replanted farmer’s delight is another mod which expands on minecraft’s farming system props are slightly changed as they’ll now grow wildly in your world with a few new ones being added including rice

Cabbage and tomatoes there’s new workstations too which include stoves cooking pots and cutting boards which allows you to create all new types of foods including soups stews and roasts doggy talents allows you to train your wolves teaching them many different talents which allow them to have the likes of increased inventory space

The ability to be mounted by the player and being able to detect creepers new collars allow you to track your wolf there’s a few new decorative blocks like beds and bass though one of my favorite features is how you can change the breed of your wolf

Way stones are new blocks which can be crafted placed and activated at a location of your choosing when you interact with other waste stones you can teleport between them or use warp scrolls instead occasionally you’ll find waystones spawning inside your game world randomly immersive portals opens up the nether

And then portals allowing you to see straight through to the other side when you go through the loading screen will also be removed and you can transition between dimensions seamlessly [Applause] infernal expansion expands on the nether update that was recently released firstly there’s five new mobs which include the likes of shroomlings

Wart beetles vollines embodies and the biggest of them all the basalt giant there’s also some new building blocks which are mostly made out of glowstone elements another dimension over holley mod is better end which adds a lot of new content to the end you’ll find over 10 new biomes a few new

Mobs and tons of new blocks overall i love how the end looks with this mod installed it’s a lot more magical and colorful ice and fire will add a lot of new mythical mobs to minecraft with the most prominent being dragons they can be killed for rewards

And their eggs taken to hatch and tame your own dragons there’s quite a lot of additional mobs too which spawn freely and inside of structures which help create new armor weapons and tools looter is a great addition to multiplayer servers it adds a new type of chest which spawns in randomly generated structures

The loot inside is unique to you so everyone in the server can explore and find treasures similar to what you’d see in an rpg better weather will add both seasons and weather events into minecraft different seasons will impact crop growth vegetation color and biome temperature whereas there’s a few new weather events

Which all add a slight layer of difficulty including acid rain blizzards and light rain space boss tools allows you to craft rockets head into space and explore other planets you can visit and build bases on the moon mars and mercury there’s quite a lot to do in this mod as

There’s different tiers of rockets to build lots of materials to collect and plenty of places to explore the abyss has a whole new dimension to explore which is full of interesting content inside you’ll find tons of new biomes mobs blocks and more the dimension is really interesting to

Explore and you’ll also find some new enchanted rings as well as some new armor tools and weapons you can also install the abyss beginning so that there’s a new biome in the overworld wall jump allows you to jump at a wall and hold down shift to grip onto it

When you let go you’ll jump off the wall allowing you to do some parkour you can also do double jumps large ore deposits gives you a chance for large amounts of ores to spawn together in your world these are rare to find but when you come across them you’ll have a countless

Supply of materials bountiful will cause bounty boards to spawn inside villages when you interact with them you can see some bounties that you can choose from where you can complete tasks and receive different rewards spiders 2.0 will change the ai of spiders making them a little more intelligent so

That they can maneuver themselves around obstacles a little bit easier they also move more realistically as they can now walk along walls and ceilings platforms are new blocks which have a lot of customization and can be created inside the platformer workstation there’s a few different shapes which all
