About this Mod

Cinch's Better Deepslate Aims to improve deepslate while also adding onto deepslate in a very vanilla friendly way.

Features

  • Reworked deepslate crafting recipes.
  • New mossy variants of cobbled deepslate, deepslate bricks, and deepslate tiles which all come with slabs, stairs and walls.
  • Sculk inlaid deepslate which is a combination of sculk and chiseled deepslate.
  • Slab, stair, and wall variants of normal deepslate.
  • Polished deepslate pressure plates and buttons.
  • Two missing stonecutter recipes for chiseled deepslate.

The recipe rework makes normal deepslate the block you use to craft most deepslate blocks instead of cobbled deepslate. This change makes mining with silk touch far less punishing for builders and makes deepslate recipes mirror stone recipes.

These features are all included in my other mod, Cinch's Missing Blocks. So if you want all these features, and many more, you can download that mod: 
Cinch's Tool Variants - Files - Minecraft Mods - CurseForge

Before version 2.0 there were also deepslate and blackstone tool sets. Those did not fit the mod very well and have since been moved to a separate mod:
Cinch's Tool Variants - Files - Minecraft Mods - CurseForge

Feel Free to use this mod in modpacks!
