Ghast Tweaks Mod (1.20.1) – Crafting Recipe For Ghast Tears

Ghast Tweaks Mod solves one of Minecraft's most annoying early-game bottlenecks: getting ghast tears without risking your life in the Nether. Instead of hunting down ghasts and hoping their tears don't fall into lava, this lightweight mod adds a simple crafting recipe using easy-to-obtain ingredients — letting you brew Potions of Regeneration and craft End Crystals entirely from the Overworld. With over 4,000 downloads on Modrinth and support spanning from 1.13.2 all the way to 26.1, it's a quiet quality-of-life fix that keeps earning fans.

Key Features

• Craftable Ghast Tears — Adds a new crafting recipe so you no longer need to rely on ghast drops. The recipe uses simple, commonly available ingredients.
• Skip the Nether Entirely — Obtain ghast tears without ever stepping through a Nether portal, which is especially helpful on peaceful difficulty or in early-game survival.
• Lightweight & Non-Intrusive — The mod appears to be lightweight with a single-purpose design. It adds one recipe and doesn't alter any existing game mechanics.
