Amethyst Armor and tools
By nobackingdown
Amethyst Arsenal adds a full set of amethyst equipment — helmet, chestplate, leggings, boots plus sword, spear, axe, pickaxe, shovel, and hoe — all crafted from amethyst shards with vanilla-style purple visuals and netherite-level stats and durability. Any amethyst item can be upgraded into a dark Echo Shard variant (Echo Shard tools and weapons gain huge 8000 durability and dark textures, and wearing the full Echo Shard armor grants continuous fire resistance, speed, resistance, and strength) by using an Echo Shard Upgrade — crafted by surrounding a Large Amethyst Crystal with eight amethyst blocks — together with a vanilla echo shard. Echo Shard armor can now be obtained either in a smithing table using the Echo Shard Upgrade as the template or directly at a crafting table via shapeless recipes that combine an Amethyst armor piece, an Echo Shard Upgrade, and an Echo Shard; begin by gathering amethyst shards and crafting standard amethyst gear, then upgrade — no commands or extra setup required.
