Amethyst Equipment
by exline
Amethyst Equipment adds a full set of tools, a sword, armor and horse armor crafted from amethyst shards.
What it does
The mod supplies a complete amethyst kit: pickaxe, axe, shovel, hoe and sword, plus helmet, chestplate, leggings and boots, with horse armor for mounts. Every piece is crafted with amethyst shards in place of ingots, so the gear draws on a material that generates in caves. Amethyst equipment cannot be recycled, and each piece wears out quickly, a trade-off the author describes as balancing how plentiful the shards are.
Both the server and every player need the mod, since the environment is client and server. It is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 10 release versions, 1.19.4 – 26.3, and is released under the MIT License, but it is not open source. The newest files are 1.0.4 for 1.21 on Fabric and 1.0.0 for 26.3 on NeoForge.
Key features
Amethyst tools and sword
The tool set and sword give 44 uses of durability, with an efficiency of 15 and an attack damage of 0.5.
Amethyst armor set
Protection values are 4 for the helmet, 5 for the chestplate, 6 for the leggings and 2 for the boots.
Horse armor
A horse armor piece with a protection value of 4 can be equipped on a mount.
Shard-based crafting
Amethyst shards replace ingots in every recipe, so the equipment needs no metal.
Low tool enchantability
Enchantability is set to 1, so enchanting these tools yields limited results.
