How to Find Vibranium in All the Mods 10 (ATM10)

All the Mods 10 is one of the most content-dense Minecraft modpacks available, pulling together hundreds of mods into a single, sprawling progression experience. Among the many materials players need to track down, Vibranium stands out as a high-tier ore that unlocks some of the modpack's most powerful crafting recipes — including the coveted Vibranium Template, used in advanced smithing and gear upgrades.

If you've been digging for hours and coming up empty, you're not alone. Vibranium doesn't follow standard Minecraft ore logic, and finding it requires understanding a few specific rules about where and how it generates.

What Is Vibranium in ATM10?

In ATM10, Vibranium is a material introduced through the Ores of the Moas or similar ore-adding mods bundled into the pack. It's a late-game ore designed to be intentionally difficult to find, sitting in a tier above common materials like iron or even allthemodium.

The Vibranium Template — sometimes called the Vibranium Smithing Template — is a crafting component required to upgrade certain weapons, tools, and armor to the Vibranium tier. Without the template, you cannot duplicate it or use it in smithing table recipes, making finding that first specimen the critical bottleneck.

Where Vibranium Ore Spawns 🔍

Vibranium does not generate in the Overworld. This is the most common reason players spend hours in caves without finding it. The ore is dimension-locked to specific environments:

• The Nether — Vibranium can generate in certain Nether biomes, typically at mid-to-low Y-levels within the dimension's vertical range
• The End — Some versions of ATM10 and its updates shift or add Vibranium generation to The End's outer islands
• Modded Dimensions — Depending on your modpack version, dimensions like the Deeper Dark, The Other, or custom ATM dimensions may also contain Vibranium deposits

Because ATM10 receives regular updates, the exact dimension and Y-level range can shift between versions. Always check the in-game ATM Star progression guide or the official ATM Discord for version-specific spawn data.

How to Find the Vibranium Smithing Template

The Vibranium Template itself doesn't drop from mining the ore directly. Here's how it actually works:

Crafting vs. Loot

• Loot chests in certain structures — particularly those found in the Nether or End — can contain Vibranium Templates as rare drops
• The template may also be obtainable through mob drops from specific modded mobs tied to the dimension where Vibranium spawns
• In some ATM10 configurations, the template is craftable once you have raw Vibranium ingots and a netherite base material, using the smithing table with the correct recipe

Using JEI to Confirm the Recipe

The fastest way to confirm how the template is obtained in your specific version is through JEI (Just Enough Items):

1. Open your inventory and search for "Vibranium Template" in the JEI panel
2. Click the item to view its recipe sources — crafting, loot tables, or mob drops will all appear if configured
3. Cross-reference with the ATM Book (given at the start of the pack) for progression hints

This matters because ATM10 modpack updates can change recipes, and community wikis sometimes lag behind. JEI reads your actual loaded instance, so it's always accurate to your version.

Variables That Affect Your Search

Not every player's experience finding Vibranium will look the same. Several factors shape how difficult — or straightforward — this becomes:

The tool tier requirement is a particularly common stumbling block. Even if you find Vibranium ore visually, mining it with an insufficient pickaxe will drop nothing. You typically need Allthemodium-tier tools or higher before Vibranium becomes mineable.

Efficient Strategies Once You're in the Right Dimension 🪓

Once you've confirmed the correct dimension and have the right tools, a few approaches tend to work better than random caving:

• Strip mining at the confirmed Y-level range is more reliable than exploring natural caves, since Vibranium veins tend to be small
• Ore-finding tools — several mods in ATM10 include prospecting picks, ore scanners, or similar items that can detect ore types in a radius
• Chunk-by-chunk search using minimap mods can help you avoid re-covering already-explored ground
• Allthemodium sight potions or similar effects from modded alchemy may allow you to see ores through walls, dramatically speeding up the process

Duplicating your first Vibranium Template is also a priority once found. Templates are duplicated using the smithing table with the template, a Vibranium ore block, and diamonds — the standard Minecraft smithing template duplication mechanic applies here.

The Spectrum of Experiences

Players with fully unlocked progression, ore-scanning tools, and access to all dimensions will find Vibranium in a focused session. Players earlier in progression — still working toward Allthemodium gear, without dimension access, or on a server with restricted world gen — may face a much longer path before Vibranium becomes accessible at all.

Your current gear tier, which dimensions you've unlocked, and which version of ATM10 you're running are the variables that most determine how your search actually unfolds. Those specifics sit entirely within your own playthrough. 🎮
