Hero's Tiered
by Herobrot
Hero's Tiered is a NeoForge mod for Minecraft 1.21.1 that lets players reforge tools and armor into new tiers using an anvil-based Reforge Screen.
What it does
The mod adds tiers and modifiers to tools and armor. An item is placed in the center slot of the Reforge Screen, which is reached from the Anvil tab, and a base material and an addition go into the left and right slots. The result is a reforged item that rolls new tiers.
Reforging uses a repair material in the left slot as a base, and the right slot takes an addition. The mod is a NeoForge port of TieredZ's Globox, written from scratch to match it on NeoForge only. It depends on Cloth Config API and Hero's Lib, and Amethyst is needed to reforge. Hero's Tiered is released under the MIT License and is open source, with public source code and an issue tracker.
Installation needs NeoForge with Cloth Config API and Hero's Lib installed alongside. Files exist for 1.21.1 only, with 1.1.0+1.21.1 as the latest build, published on 2026-08-27. Both sides need the mod, so the server and every player must run it.
