Tungsten Mod
Tungsten Mod adds tungsten, a dense metal that generates as ore in ice spikes biomes and can only be mined with a netherite pickaxe.
What it does
Tungsten ore appears only in the ice spikes biome, between Y levels -40 and -53. Players need a netherite pickaxe to break it, and the ore drops raw tungsten. From the raw metal the mod builds tungsten blocks, tools and armor, and a crystallized netherite armor and tool line that carries the same addition effects as netherite gear.
The mod also adds food and combat items built on the metal. The tungsten potato launches as a projectile that bursts into fire when it lands, a blast smelting step turns items into smelted results, and a reinforced mace deals more damage the higher the player falls. Both armor sets grant Resistance II and Fire Resistance, and tungsten armor is stated to be stronger than the crystallized netherite set.
The mod is open source under the MIT License and is published for Forge 1.21 and 1.21.1, with the 1.21.1 file as the latest release. The mechanical drill mines a 3 by 3 area. Server owners need the mod installed, and players may add it on the client.
