Ancient Staff parts?

[Feyriin]

So I made my map initially without biomes o plenty turned on. I later then turned it on, is it possible to still get the various gems I need to make an ancient staff (i.e. the biomes spawning even though the world type was default) or am I at the mercy of dungeon chests/loot bags/etc to get the gems?

Thanks!

in new chunks, or if you have retroactive generation turned on, wherever.

Ok, I'll look for new chunks, I didn't see any options for retroactive regen in config

If you have mystcraft, you can also get the pages from villager trades, and make mystcraft ages with the biomes you need.

What I did.

Lol I saw the title and thought this was a post about the new COD zombies map: Origins.

What I ended up doing was setting up an auto spawner system and hand killed enough mobs to get the spoils bags with the gems in them. Not as tedious as I thought it would be. I think the spoils bags might be a little unbalanced, but that's not really on topic here.
