Better netherite
by Parasite21X
Better netherite changes how netherite ingots are made, adding a netherack-and-quartz recipe in place of gold and a few smaller netherite items to Forge 1.19.2.
What it does
Netherite ingots can be crafted from netherack and quartz instead of gold, which offers a second route to the material that does not depend on gold. The smelted ingot is covered as well, so a player can use the alternative recipe or the standard one depending on what is on hand. Raw netherite and netherite plating are added as new items, and the plating is an expensive building block tied to a related advancement.
Netherite plating is crafted from netherite scraps and ingots, and the Return scepter is a tool that teleports the player to the spawn point when used. Items are described as collection tweaks and additions, and the mod is a small set of changes rather than a large content pack. It runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it, and it is published for Forge 1.19.2 only, with 1.0 as the latest file.
