GemsPlus Mod: A Treasure Trove of Colorful Crafting
The GemsPlus Mod in Minecraft introduces a dazzling array of new gems, expanding your crafting palette with vibrant tools, armor, and even tinted glass. With sixteen additional gem ores to discover, your Minecraft escapades are now enriched with a spectrum of crafting possibilities, each gem offering unique attributes and durability.
Armor Crafting with a Gemstone Twist
Emeralds are no longer just for trading; they, along with rubies, amethysts, sapphires, and onyx, can now be fashioned into protective gear. These new armor sets not only vary in durability and defense but also offer a kaleidoscope of colors to suit your style. Crafting remains straightforward, adhering to familiar patterns for ease of creation.
Tools and Weapons: A Cut Above the Rest
While the crafting methods for tools and weapons stay true to the game’s roots, the new gem-infused variants bring a fresh edge to your arsenal. A handy chart below outlines the perks of each gem, helping you choose the right tool for the job, whether you prioritize longevity or sheer strength.
Weaponry Worthy of a Gemstone Connoisseur
From battleaxes to swords, the mod offers a new suite of melee weapons. These aren’t just any ordinary weapons; they boast higher attack damage and durability, along with unique designs that showcase the luster of the gems they’re crafted from. Whether you’re going for a themed set or a mix-and-match approach, the bold colors ensure your gear stands out.
Stained Glass: Crafting with a Splash of Color
For those with an eye for aesthetics, the mod allows you to create colored glass. Begin by smelting gems into dust, then combine the dust with sand to form unrefined glass blocks. A second smelting transforms these into stained glass blocks, ready to add a personal touch to your builds. This process mirrors the traditional glassmaking craft, adding a layer of realism and satisfaction to your creative endeavors.
More Than Just Shiny Rocks: Gems as Currency
For those looking to enrich their multiplayer experience, the new gems can serve as the foundation of an in-game economy. Assign values based on rarity and watch as a dynamic market unfolds within your Minecraft server.
