What's goin' on, Nerds?! Welcome back, my name is Sned! Guys...I've struggled with this mod, too. It's so hard to find any information on it! So, hopefully this video helps answer a few questions and lets you jump into the basics. If you'd like more information, just let me know! Maybe I'll even make a part 2 going into more detail, if needed.
Anyways, I hope you all enjoy! Leave a "like" if you liked it, subscribe if you didn't (don't question it) and please...Enjoy the episode!

This video has taken me from novice to apprentice level all by itself for this mod, thank you.

[@Snedglow]

Glad to hear it! Happy to help.

[@LoucaoHop]

This mod is hella confusing ngl..

[@Snedglow]

I totally agree. I spent so much time figuring out as much as I could!

[@Blanket420]

It's easier to understand compared to tinkers

[@viablezombie9419]

​@@Blanket420 seem about the same (especially if you are talking about the most updated tinkers)

[@imranmohsin9545]

Tbh more than complex it's more like where is it even useful actually .. cause the mod usually is in modpack and we have better options at times to achive similar goals ... Altho standalone it seems like an awesome journey towards efficient tools and weapons kinda like has a lore to great stuff

[@LoucaoHop]

@@imranmohsin9545 word! I prefer tinkers in modpacks than this mod..

[@Echosong434]

Thank you very much for this tutorial! I hope to see another part later on and am glad to have found another enjoyable minecraft youtuber!

[@Snedglow]

Hey, I'm glad you liked it! Thank you!

[@Steampunk_Ocelot]

I've been really struggling with this mod , but it seems to be tinkers main competition so it's about time I got comfortable with it , this has been really helpful at getting me started

[@Snedglow]

Hey, I'm glad to help!

[@ChrisMarissael]

Very handy if I ever decide to get started with this mod.

[@Snedglow]

Thanks!

[@tian4037]

great vid expected you to have more subs with this quality, thank you for the info

[@Snedglow]

Hey, thanks! That really means a lot. I'm glad you enjoyed.

[@ImADeity]

I'm pretty sure this is the video I watched in the beginning when I was new to blacksmithing in tetra. Thanks for the help. I mastered Tetra a long time ago and I'm pretty sure this was one of the keys to do it

[@Snedglow]

I really appreciate you coming back and saying that, master smith! That made my day.

[@essjayehm]

Nice video there Sned! Touched on most of the basics but really just scratched the surface of this amazing mod.

[@Snedglow]

Thanks, Essjay! I know! You wouldn't believe how much I had to cut because I was going into too much detail! It's hard, though, to find any info on this mod. So I figured "Let's throw the basics out there and I'll do another video if need be." Glad you enjoyed!

[@Arlgm]

Thanks for this vid. I'm not creative at all and I didn't know what a good example was of an endgame pickaxe so I'm for sure yoinking the one you showed here.

[@Snedglow]

Sweet! Glad I could help.

[@jangrogames]

Great video Sned. That poor golem though. He just wanted to go home.

[@Snedglow]

Thank you! Yeah, I know he did. Too bad, too. The village was just right down the hill from him.

[@sersaysersay854]

Thank you for the comprehensive guide. Watching this i discovered I was opening the chests and crates all wrong D:

[@Snedglow]

I made the same mistake a bunch of times! Glad I could help!

[@cosmosiumkitsune7010]

You have earnt another subscriber. thank you soo much.

[@Snedglow]

Hey, thank you! I appreciate the support!

[@fuzzy-02]

The spead should be held like a spear and not an item, I wish. Also, this mod definitely needs a guide book bundled with it like in Tinker's constructs.

[@Snedglow]

I get what you mean! It took me a while to learn this mod and I'm sure I've still got loads more to learn. The achievements help as a progression, though.

[@Ollarion]

Thanks for posting this! As you say, there's not much information out there about Tetra, so I learned a lot just watching this. I still struggle a bit with what materials are worth making tools, weapons, bows and shields out of, because the amount of options is just too much (especially in a modpack like Valhelsia 5) and it's hard to decide which stats are more important. On the note of important stats, I never understood exactly how enchanting works with Tetra. It seems some materials allow you to add more enchants to that part, but I can't tell how high the number has to be to allow more than one enchant. 🤔

[@Snedglow]

Choosing the materials is something I struggle with, too. You're right. Way too any options and it's easy to get overwhelmed. I know what you ean. The enchanting isn't something I've fully figured out yet, either. I'll let you know when I have the answeres, though!

[@Whispitt]

If it helps at all ive discovered that each tool part has a magic capacity. When you put an enchant on it itll use up part of the magic capacity. Each module on the tool has its own seperate pool for magic capacity. So youll be able to put unbreaking on one part of the tool, and effeciency on a different part, and have it apply to the whole tool

[@greywolf9783]

30:10 this is where tetra goes from fair and balanced to making what most games would consider to be legendary tools just by playing!

[@Snedglow]

Yeah, the things these tools can do are actually crazy. Most modded packs, this'll last you a looooong time.

[@Sandje1976]

thank you very much :)

[@Snedglow]

Glad to help!

[@MaxFrostbite11]

Good video. Helps a lot with learning the mod. I am wonder how to upgrade my hammer. I have an iron with a blaze handle wrapped with leather and a emerald gem and its still tier 3. what is next?

[@Snedglow]

Next up is Blackstone! You'll need another T3 hammer to upgrade it. Keep upgrading the two hammers together! Also make sure it's a double headed hammer. Both sides nerd upgraded.

[@45bigwoody]

You need a claw to take down ancient schematic extractors. Get behind it and right click the back of them

[@Snedglow]

Someone else just taught me this, recently. Who knew? Lol

[@MrTrueFury]

Before even watching, yeah that intro is exactly it. The mod is definitely overly complicated to start with.

[@Snedglow]

I knew I needed a good intro, so I asked my discord to send me random sound clips of them being confused lol. I like how it turned out but I'm pretty bias.

[@Fri3n_d]

one problem, you need a high level hammer to make a high level hammer, (at least in my case) does anyone have any suggestions?

[@theactualeverest5088]

I would love more please

I hope I've helped you so far!

[@xSiLviCoOk]

are you willing to give some tips on finding ancient debris with the holosphere

[@Snedglow]

I don't really have anything "solid," per say. Just: Go down to ancient debris level (15, I think?) and just slowly start scanning around. You can boost your range and it'll reach about 2 full chunks away, so you should almost always find some if you can in a wave pattern (left to right, up and down.)

[@bennie1079]

this might come a bit late, but I am struggling with a part of this mod! Specifically, I am stuck in the hammer progression and I am unsure what to do to upgrade from a blackstone hammer. I found one of the ancient cities, and the hammer block in it. I have seen what I can use to upgrade my hammer there, but all of the upgrades says I need a tier 6 hammer, and the hammer block in the city is only tier 5. There's not a lot of info around about this mod from what I can tell, so if you know the answer to this, it'd make me very happy!

[@Snedglow]

@bennie1079 sorry for the late response! I'd be happy to help! Double check the hammer forge has two full batteries in it! There should be two, one in each side. The other two "slots" are where you can add different modifications. I can't remember their names off the top of my head, so I'll have to check later, but the lub thing and the plane thing are examples. If you have anymore questions, or I wasn't clear, feel free to ping me here or on discord!

[@shadowviscane1]

what does mine tier do?

[@greywolf9783]

31:28 yes you can't repair them in an anvil but that removes the exp cost completely!

[@Snedglow]

That's part of what makes them so good. So much saved xp. The fact that you can repair netherite tools for a single string sometimes? SO GOOD. Lol

[@13armstorm53]

Super vidéo, savez-vous comment créer ou récupérer la "forge hammer" Par avance merci

[@Snedglow]

Thank you! And yes! You have to power it. There are four sides to it, and two sides need the battery that you can find. You can put anything else you want into the other two sides. Remove things with a claw. If I remember, once it's powered by the battery, you have to give it a redstone signal. A lever or button should work.

[@sampfrost]

the ancient schematics can be clawed but they can only be clawed from the back, do you still need the subject of the schematics in your inventory if you have the multi block set up? last i saw the flavour text suggests you don’t

[@Snedglow]

I actually just found out about that recently! Weird it's only from behind. Wonder what the lore is behind that reasoning? No, I don't think you do. I don't quite remember, though. I'd say I'd check for you, but my arm is currently in a sling lol.

[@FurryGamer303]

Yes, you claw it from behind and then can move it, but, if you noticed, there are some of them that are 'ruined' and cannot be used, so you have to find another one where the missing peices aren't ruined. Once you find all of the peices to one of the ancient schematics, you can make a more powerful/customizable stonepeircer/stonecutter/extractor, depending on the schematic, using echo shards. I learned all this recently

[@timweyer2237]

Please demo the percussion scanner function... I added it to my holosphere, but don't understand how to use it.

[@Snedglow]

I'll see if I can explain it to the best of my ability here. Basically, though, you shift right click it on the ground and you'll place it. You should then be able to activate the scanner and you just start beating it with a hammer (right click.) You'll see these lines appear in a cone shape. If the scanner picks anything up, it'll appear as orange.

[@debatender]

In the hollow speher what does the str and hdl somthing mean like when you open up the sphere and look at them they just have some scrambled words

[@Snedglow]

Did you repair your sphere?

[@debatender]

@@Snedglow how

[@Snedglow]

I'd have to double check, but I think you need a bolt and eye of ender. It should be one of the selections when you open the sphere.

[@timweyer2237]

Last I had looked at the wiki, those are upcoming features and not yet implemented into the mod.

[@Blueredgreen123]

I’m confused my hammer can’t be upgraded to iron cuz it’s not lvl 2 you didn’t explain that

[@melissagofman8170]

лучший гайд, даже несмотря на то что я не понимаю английский

[@Snedglow]

Thank you!!!

[@ReRoji]

I swear i can never find a tetra structure using the scanner. Also a question: what does Gild 1 and Gild 2 do? And how to i apply them to my tools?

[@Snedglow]

They do seem pretty rare. Check your cold biomes! I have good luck looking through cold oceans, to be honest. Just dive down deep and hope lol. Gild increases an items enchantability. You can hone your tools to have a higher gild or you can get a scroll and place it near your table. You can also place them on the table.

[@DavidPatoPato]

How did you put the Tetra mod in 1.19.2? The 1.18.2 Works too in 1.19.2 or something like that?

[@adrielcerqueira5796]

E como se sobe o nível do Hammer? Até agora não entendi 😢

[@Snedglow]

I hope Google translates this well, so I'm sorry in advanced! You'll need to make a second hammer. One upgrades the other and vice versa. Then, at the end, you'll need to use the Forge Hammer found in the Tetra structures. Espero que o Google traduza isso bem, então sinto muito antecipadamente! Você precisará fazer um segundo martelo. Um atualiza o outro e vice-versa. Então, no final, você precisará usar o Forge Hammer encontrado nas estruturas Tetra.

@eddi2565 sure thing! It depends on the type of hammer you currently have, but the basic idea is to make two hammers. You can use one to upgrade the other and vice versa. If this helps, great! If not, feel free to ping me on here or discord!

@@Snedglow oh ive done that and i have a hammer that is level 3 but no clue how to get it higher and i cannot seem to make a tool that does cutting past level 1 context im playing the steampunk lps pack

[@Snedglow]

If you have two level 3 hammers, you should be able to upgrade one with the other.

[@isseihyoudou5522]

This mod is so disappointing. 1 - A lot of effort to get tools just slightly better than the vanilla ones. 2 - There seem to be many materials and modification options, but the reality is that they don't exist. Many of the materials available provide, if not exactly the same modifications, almost identical modifications with only a slight improvement.

[@Snedglow]

I get that. I look at it this way: The tools might be slightly better, but only at first. They have the possability to completly blow vanilla tools out of the water. To your first point, you can immediatly start off with better tools. The simple fact that they don't break is huge in my eyes. So many diamonds or iron saved just by not needing to repair/replace them. Which leads me into my second thought. The repair cost is a huuuuge bonus. You have a diamond pickaxe? Here you go! Fully repair with one string! As to your second point, you're right. A lot of the materials only slightly modify the item. However, I find it fun to try an min/max my pick to be the best it can be. The grind to get the specific material I want is a lot of fun, too. Exploring the structures Tetra has to offer is also pretty cool. Oh boy. Sorry, I don't mean to do the whole "THESE ARE MY BELIFES! ACCEPT THEM!" thing lol. I just wanted to give you my thoughts.

[@aaronbrodie7802]

@@Snedglow 2 more points to add on to your answer for the second point, looks and availability. For my first point: the materials used affect the color of the parts, so having multiple materials with the same stats lets you have aesthetic options. Lets say you're upgrading to a stone hammer: if you use granite the head will be a reddish color, diorite will be white, and andesite will be grey. My second point, availability, is pretty self-explanatory. An example, you want to make a tetra sword from one of the dragon steels from the Ice and Fire mod (out of the box compatible btw), but only have access to ice dragonsteel. Since the 3 dragonsteels take a while to get to and have the same stats it doesn't matter that you only have one kind available, you will end up with the same sword stat wise.

[@Snedglow]

I really like your arguments, and you make some good points there! I've never played with the Ice and Fire mod, so I can't really speak, on that, specifically. I agree with the astetic aspect, for sure, though. Isn't that what everyone wants, anyways? This is, after all, Fashion Craft.

[@aaronbrodie7802]

@@Snedglow The stone example works for the availability point too, although it's not as meaningful since those stones are everywhere.

[@LITTLEBRAT775081]

This mod is dumb and confusing

[@Snedglow]

Lol, what part are you confused about? Maybe I can help!

[@LITTLEBRAT775081]

@@Snedglow I don't know what any of the attachments do . so for instance my sword I don't know what any of those selections actually do or what should be combined with each other to make the best option . also the confusing thing is repairing . like I did a stub pickaxe like the video out of iron but it can't mine diamonds ? I had to make it a double sided one . Lastly what do hammers actually do , what do I use them on ? Apparently they have to be in my inventory to do upgrades to other pickaxes and things ?

[@Snedglow]

@LITTLEBRAT775081 So to better see what the attachments do, you can open up your orb by right clicking in the air. The best way I've found to figure out what some of the different blades are/do is to just... Try it! You can make wooden swords and just play around with them. As for certain attachments like, for example, a blaze rod hilt, they all do different things. A blaze rod hilt will ignite enemies (I think, I'd need to double check) but also hurt you a little bit. An end rod will teleport you, etc. You should be able to see most/all of that inside your holo. As for what is "best to be combined," the short answer is this: it doesn't matter. I love that fact because I can totally gear my tools and weapons to what I want from them. Okay, so onto the pickaxe. The general idea is you need to have a "synergy bonus" from the pickaxe heads in order to mine an ore above your material. Here's an example: if you have an iron pickaxe head on the left, and an iron tool butt on the right, you should only be able to mine iron and under. However, adding a second iron head on the right gives the tool "synergy," which basically gives you a +1. All tools work like that. Hammers, pickaxes, etc. Now, into your last question. Hammers are super useful. They allow you to upgrade your tools, but they also let you break blocks inside of the Tetra structures. The forged walls and pillars can't be mined like normal (except with other mods like Ars or something) so you'd have to use the hammer. I think I answered everything, but if I didn't, please let me know! Feel free to ping me here or on discord and I'll answer whatever else you ask! (or try my best lol.)
