The Better Weapons And Tools Mod
The Better Weapons And Tools Mod adds ten new materials, three new forms of weapons and new ores that players can dig up and craft into gear.
What it does
The mod introduces new weapon types such as Battle Axes, Paxels and PvP Hammers, alongside new tools made from existing ores, including copper and emerald tools. Tungsten trades speed for high knockback resistance, while Ruby is described as a slightly stronger alternative to diamond. Blueium, Platin and Titan sit between iron and the upper tiers, and Rillardium serves as an upgrade path toward netherite.
Blackium upgrades and Rillardium armor add higher tiers, with Silver and Goldium placed above Platin. The author describes the set as offering many more variations, and the content is meant for fighting, exploring and general play on both single-player and multiplayer worlds. The server and every player need the mod installed. Files are published for Fabric and NeoForge, with builds covering 1.21.1 – 26.1.2 across four release versions.
