ZEN's Upgraded Netherite
by Zendry
ZEN's Upgraded Netherite adds rare ores, alloys and unbreakable gear that extend the Netherite progression past its usual endpoint, with a final tier called Singularite.
What it does
Six gems, Topaz, Fluorite, Amber, Ruby, Sapphire and Onyx, can be found in the Overworld, each with Stone and Deepslate variants. Each gem can be smelted into a Netherite alloy, and each alloy tier needs the one before it, so progress runs in order: Emeraldite, Topazite, Fluorisite, Amberite, Rubycite, Sapphenite, Onyxerite and finally Singularite.
Each alloy tier brings its own tools, armor, weapons and Elytra. Singularite gear is completely unbreakable. The mod is built for NeoForge and is published for 1.21.1, 26.1.2 and 26.2, with the latest NeoForge file for 26.2. Servers that run it need every player to install it too. The code is under All rights reserved, and the mod is not open source.
