Quark Recipes

This page covers notable Quark recipes included in Shadows of Aethro (1.20.1). Most Quark crafting, stonecutting, and smelting recipes are viewable in-game via JEI, but this page highlights unique, non-obvious, or commonly searched recipes.

Tools & Utility Items

Pickarang

* A boomerang pickaxe that mines blocks at range and returns with drops. * Recipe: Requires a Heart of Diamond (from Stonelings, if enabled), Diamonds, and Sticks. * Functions as both a mining tool and throwable weapon.

Trowel

* Right-click to place a random block from your hotbar (great for paths/ruins). * Recipe: Iron Ingot + Sticks.

Torch Arrows

* Fire an arrow that places a torch where it lands (or ignites mobs). * Works in dispensers. * Recipe: Arrow + Torch.

Seed Pouch

* Stores up to 10 stacks of seeds, plants directly from storage. * Recipe: Leather + String.

Crafting Adjustments

Redstone & Automation

Chute

* Accepts items from hoppers and drops them from its center. * Toggle with redstone signal. * Recipe: Iron Ingots + Stone.

Metal Buttons

* Gold Button = very short pulse. * Iron Button = longer pulse.

Ender Watcher

* Emits redstone when looked at. * Strength varies with distance (in newer versions).

Tweaks & Quality of Life

These come from the Tweaks module (see full list here). Highlighted here are the ones players ask about most:

Decorative & Building Blocks

Quark adds hundreds of decorative blocks (vertical slabs, stone variants, wood variants, etc.). To avoid clutter, we recommend browsing these recipes directly in JEI. Future updates may include gallery pages for popular sets (e.g., vertical slabs, polished stones, themed block families).

Notes

* Recipes here reflect the Shadows of Aethro configuration (1.20.1). * Some features may be disabled or altered in configs. * For a full breakdown of tweaks, see: quark_tweaks
