I've seen a few people suggesting using a gold ingot for the gilded blackstone recipe instead of a block. To include this without allowing infinite gold using fortune three, you could change the recipe to one ingot + one blackstone = one gilded blackstone. This way it would still be cheaper, but exploits wouldn't be possible.

I want the first one as a vanilla feature, and yep Guest-4784880907 is right, instead of gold block an ingot would be better for gilded blackstone. good job!

Thank you for the feedback! Unfortunately when mined with Fortune III, gilded blackstone can drop up to 5 gold nuggets. So if you make 8 gilded with 1 ingot, and get 5 nuggets each, you basically just generated 3+ gold ingots out of thin air.

While this isn't a big deal on single player, this pack is designed and balanced primarily for realms, where creation of items out of thin air can affect the economy.
Yeah but you could mine it making nuggets to create into more blocks making a loop
If it was made like that you could fortune it and get more gold back than you spent crafting it
gilded blackstone should be crafted with a gold ingot or nugget instead of a gold block because the gold block is expensive

The recipe is based on preventing exploits on realms (this was designed for realms primarily, where Blackstone can quickly become limited). If the recipe were any cheaper, you could use it to create a free gold loop.
