Emerald++
Emerald++ adds a set of tools and armor crafted from emeralds to Minecraft, placed between the diamond and netherite tiers.
What it does
Crafted emerald tools and armor sit between diamond and netherite in the progression, giving players a middle tier for efficiency and durability. Wearing the emerald armor grants a lasting Haste effect, which is removed when a full set is worn. The mod requires Fabric, and the client needs it, while the server can run without it. Builds exist for 1.21 – 1.21.1, and the mod is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
