Ex Nihilo, meaning "Out of Nothing", allows players to get almost any item using just basic blocks like cobblestone, gravel, dirt and sand. As such, it is very useful for "skyblock" maps, like Sky Factory, Sky Factory 2, Agrarian Skies: Hardcore Quest and many others. To start off, you need some organic materials like saplings, leaves, and most types of plants. Fill a Wood Barrel with these and it will compost them to Dirt. This can then be put in a Sieve to produce all kinds of seeds and small stones. Put four of these stones together to create cobblestone. Hit the cobblestone with a Hammer to get gravel. Use a Sieve to gain your first ores, or hit it once again with a Hammer to produce sand or dust. Sieving sand or dust will produce other ores and different kinds of powders like Redstone and Glowstone Dust. With a Crucible you can smelt lava out of stone.

It also adds the possibility to manually spawn rare mobs such as Endermen and Blazes by crafting either an Angry Doll or Creepy Doll and right clicking the doll inside a Barrel filled with Witch Water.
