Better Copper
by Tryhrdsnphrd
Better Copper changes the copper line so the tools and armor it adds sit between stone and iron in the progression, while the ore keeps its vanilla feel.
What it does
The mod adds a full line of copper tools and armor: axe, pickaxe, shovel, hoe, sword and armor pieces. Each copper item has a visual that changes with its durability level, and the items can take enchantments. Copper gear is placed before iron, with durability, protection and enchantability values set between wood and leather on one side and iron on the other. The server and every player need the mod installed. Better Copper is released under the MIT License and is not open source. Files target 1.19.4 – 1.20.1 on Quilt.
