Steel Weapons and Armour!
by Shaymuss
Steel Weapons and Armour! Steel is introduced as a new material for armour and weapons, produced by combining copper and iron in a furnace step.
What it does
Players craft steel sets of armour and weapons after combining copper and iron, which gives an upgrade path for iron gear. The additions are kept minimal, so the mod stays close to the base game's progression. It is a Fabric mod that runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Builds cover 1.20 – 1.20.6, and the latest file is 1.0.0 for 1.20.6, released under the Apache License 2.0 and not open source.
Key features
Steel armour set
A full set of steel armour pieces is added as a step above iron protection.
Steel weapons
Swords and other weapons are added in steel, crafted from the same material as the armour.
Copper and iron smelting
Steel is produced by mixing copper and iron in a smelting step, giving iron a further use.
