Overgrown Bown + Iron Spear - Applies a slow effect to targeted mobs

Ender Bone + Netherite Sword - Returns the tool or weapon to you when you die

Toxic Crystal + Iron Sword - Afflicts enemies with poison

Demonic Crystal + Netherite Spear - Doubles your enchantments, but hurts the user while fighting

Spirited Bone + Mace - Grants the user fighting bonuses while attacking

Instructions

New Relics - various crystals or bones, can be discovered from vanilla structures and blocks but are more common at the New Oasis or Catacombs structures.

To discover these new relics, you will need more powerful brushes. To craft a higher tier excavating brush you need to use the Fusion mechanic with any brush and an item of the desired tier - like Iron, Diamond or Netherite.

To be able to fuse these items to your tools, you must discover A Totem of Ancient Power which grants you the "Ancient Power" potion effect for a short time.

Then, hold a bone or crystal in your off hand and your tool in your main hand. Right Click to fuse and discover your new ability!
