Some of the changes can be adjusted using custom rules, such as [[Teleport Here|teleportation]] requiring a diamond [[portal]], [[meditation]] being blocked, attacks and [[hunger]] doubled in effect, and [[tool]]s wearing out at half the rate (unless misused, including non-weapons being used to attack). | Some of the changes can be adjusted using custom rules, such as [[Teleport Here|teleportation]] requiring a diamond [[portal]], [[meditation]] being blocked, attacks and [[hunger]] doubled in effect, and [[tool]]s wearing out at half the rate (unless misused, including non-weapons being used to attack). | ||
Additional differences from normal mode are also present: | |||
* Crafting trade portals is only possible in a diamond portal | |||
* If a blockhead foolishly chops down a tree at the bottom, then they receive one wood (whereas in normal mode, an abundance of wood blocks and sticks drop). | |||

In addition to significant changes in the recipes for crafting, expert mode imposes a clear progression through the [[Crafting Surface|crafting surfaces]] by adding levels between every item on a [[workbench]]. Further restriction exists in that a [[Trade Portal|trade portal]] cannot be crafted without a diamond portal and many level-ups (some of them new) on all crafting surfaces require a [[gem]] as an ingredient. The result can be seen in the following list: | In addition to significant changes in the recipes for crafting, expert mode imposes a clear progression through the [[Crafting Surface|crafting surfaces]] by adding levels between every item on a [[workbench]].
