Ruined Equipment

Grieving equipment owner? Tools and Armors break into Ruined forms for repair or memorial purposes.

With this mod installed, Tools and Armors break into Ruined forms (for players). The Ruined equipment can then be repaired in either a Crafting Grid or Anvil, upgraded by "Empowering" it with a Netherite Scrap or, if you're like me, kept as a keepsake. You may also use Name Tags to apply Lore to your Items in an Anvil - this allows you to commemarate them however you wish. May you never forget your fallen tools and armors & the adventures you had with them.

📖 About

• Ruined varieties of the following Items:
  • All vanilla Tools/Swords
  • All vanilla Armors (including Turtle Shell)
  • Shields
  • Misc: Shears, Flint & Steel, Bow, Crossbow, Trident, Fishing Rod
  • All modded tools/armors: These will drop a "Ruined Item's Ashes" and do not have special "ruined" textures
• Tools & Armors will become "Ruined" when their durability reaches 0 (and you hear the break sound).
• Ruined equipment keep all their NBT data - this includes (but is not limited to) name, enchantments (although the enchantments no longer functionally do anything), dyes (if leather armor), and banner pattern (if shield).
• Ruined items with Mending are repairable when held in hands while collecting experience.
• You can apply Lore to your Ruined Items by combining them with a Name Tag in an Anvil!
  • The Lore will carry over to your Item if you choose to repair it, enabling you to apply Lore to your Armors and Tools in Survival in a vanilla-friendly way!
  • Lore can be applied to Ruined Items multiple times, adding more lines each time.
  • You can remove all applied Lore by combining the Ruined Items with a Name Tag named "clear".
• You have 4 choices when you receive a Ruined item.
  1. Keep it as a keepsake, remember it always.
  2. Combine the Ruined item with either another Ruined item of the same type or the corresponding non-Ruined item in a Crafting Grid in order to repair the item, but lose all other features (name, enchantments, etc).
  3. Repair the Ruined item using an Anvil with either it's corresponding repair material or the corresponding non-Ruined item. This will apply all features (name, enchantments, etc) to the resulting Item.
  4. Make your Ruined item "Empowered"...

• By combining your Ruined Item with a Netherite Scrap in an Anvil (v2.2.0 or prior use Smithing Table), your Ruined Item will become "Empowered"
• When repairing the Empowered Ruined Item using an Anvil, all the existing Enchantments will become max value.
