Argyrite
by uehil_
Argyrite adds a deep-dark material, Argyrite, mined from ancient ore and used to craft ingots, gear and armor trims.
What it does
Argyrite ore is found deep underground, between roughly y-45 and y-60 in the deep dark biome, and smelting Ancient Debris in a blast furnace yields Argyrite Scrap. Four Argyrite Scrap and four Netherite Ingots combine into one Argyrite Ingot, which is described as stronger than Netherite. Argyrite Upgrade Templates come from mining Suspicious Sculk, which can be told apart from ordinary sculk by its green spots.
Netherite gear can be upgraded at a Smithing Table by placing it with an Argyrite Upgrade Template and an Argyrite Ingot. The mod also adds Argyrite Armor, which supports armor trims. The mod's item set includes a sword and a helmet with supernatural properties, and its story text describes an ancient civilization that once used the material to build cities.
Argyrite runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge, for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, and the code is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
