a granite laorer drops the Shimmering Aligned Ore in yxtta near the fern sample. have not tried the raid coned mobs yet. seams uncommon drop from them.
saw a patch a few months ago that said you no longer need a raid for that part ti kill golems tryed it you cannot attack them unless in a raid
they also said you no longer need to test the axes just kill the golems has anyne verified this .
