Tungsten Equipment
by bixusweetus
Tungsten Equipment adds a Fabric tier of gear and blocks that sits between iron and netherite, with armor, tools, ores and upgrade templates for late-game progression.
What it does
Tungsten Equipment adds a set of tungsten items: armor pieces, a sword, an axe, a pickaxe, a shovel and a hoe, plus tungsten ingots, powder, a block and ore. Tungsten ore can be smelted into powder, which becomes ingots used in crafting, and the mod offers an upgrade path from tungsten into netherite gear with its own upgrade templates. Upgrade templates can also be found in strongholds, ancient cities, desert and jungle temples, and dungeons, while tungsten scrap turns up in pillager outposts, buried treasure, shipwrecks and underwater ruins.
The mod is client and server, so the server and every player need it installed. It requires no dependency for Fabric, and it can run beside Sinytra Connector, an optional dependency that adds NeoForge compatibility. Files cover game versions 1.21 and 1.21.1, with 1.4.0 for 1.21.1 as the latest beta file. The code is all rights reserved and is not open source.
Key features
Tungsten armor and tools
Helmet, chestplate, leggings and boots join sword, axe, pickaxe, shovel and hoe, so a full set of tungsten equipment is available.
Tungsten ore and ingots
Tungsten ore generates as scattered veins in the deepslate layer, and smelted powder becomes ingots used in crafting.
Netherite upgrade path
Upgrade templates let players improve tungsten gear into netherite gear, giving a route with more choices than plain netherite.
Food and potion effects
Tungsten Slop and Tungsten Jerky grant short-duration effects such as regeneration, resistance and strength, with side effects like hunger and mining fatigue.
Armor and tool trade-offs
Tungsten gear has higher toughness and knockback resistance than netherite but lower enchantability, a movement speed penalty per armor piece and slower mining.
