More Shields
by Xsynda
More Shields lets players craft shields in several new materials, each with its own durability and recipe.
What it does
The mod adds shields made from wood, stone, iron, gold, diamond and netherite, so a player can choose a shield that suits the fight at hand. Each material has its own durability and crafting recipe. A few achievements are tied to obtaining the harder shields, which take more effort to reach. Files are published for NeoForge 1.21.1, and the environment is client and server, so the server and every player need the mod.
Key features
Six shield materials
Shields are added in six materials, from the softest wood up to netherite, alongside the vanilla shield.
Separate durability
Each shield material has its own durability value, so the choice affects how long a block lasts.
Material crafting recipes
Every shield has its own crafting recipe, which sets how much effort it takes to get one.
Shield achievements
Several achievements are tied to obtaining the harder shields, which are difficult to reach.
