ReQ: Emerald Tools
by RemyEliot
ReQ: Emerald Tools adds emerald-based tools, weapons and a full set of emerald armor pieces for players who want an emerald-themed kit in NeoForge 1.21.5.
What it does
Emerald Armor Tools are crafted from emerald material, and the crafted items cover the tool and armor slots of the kit. Crafting is the way to obtain them, so a player progresses by gathering emerald and working through the recipes. Installation is covered in the feature list below, where the player's own steps are described.
Emerald Helmet, Emerald Chestplate, Emerald Pants and Emerald Shoes make up the full armor set, so a player can wear every piece together. The mod runs on NeoForge only and has no other loader builds. Both the server and each player need it, since the content is handled on both sides. The release is published for 1.21.5 and is not open source. It is released under All rights reserved, so the code cannot be reused under an open license.
The mod is a NeoForge equipment addition in the Equipment category, and it is aimed at players who want a single-theme set of tools and armor rather than a broad overhaul. The latest file is 1.0.0 for 1.21.5, dated 2025-05-16, which is also the first and last update recorded for the project.

How it compares
Emerald tools & Armor is a NeoForge-only option for 1.21.4, client and server, under All rights reserved, so it does not cover the 1.21.5 release. Emerald Armor is open source under the MIT License and covers Fabric, Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1 – 26.1.2, so it reaches more loaders and versions. Emerald Blade is NeoForge only for 1.21.4 and adds a weapon rather than the full armor set.
