Might Be: Tool Expansion
by nekonesse
Might Be: Tool Expansion gives tools and armor sets inspired by Terraria's sidegrades on Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1.
What it does
Three tool sidegrades arrive with the mod, along with several armor sets named Crystallized, Lightning, Iridanium and Molten, each made at a Smithing Table from gathered materials. Because the materials are scarce, the new sets are rare, and where they are found depends on the world. A recipe browser such as JEI or REI is recommended for finding the new recipes. Both sides need the mod, and it is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, so it is not open source. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1 only.
Key features
Three tool sidegrades
Three new tools serve as alternatives to the vanilla tiers, with different strengths and uses.
Smithing Table armor sets
Armor sets are crafted at a Smithing Table, with Crystallized, Lightning, Iridanium and Molten variants.
Rare resource-based sets
Materials for the new sets are scarce, so finding them takes exploration and the location varies by world.
