Simple Silver
Simple Silver adds a new ore tier: silver, a diamond alternative combat-wise strong against undead but iron-tier otherwise. It trades some durability for better enchantability and introduces a Hunger Resistance potion, giving rotten flesh a second wind.

About this project
What does Simple Silver add?
Description:
Minecraft’s tool and armor progression is a bit linear: stone → iron → diamond → netherite. Simple Silver adds a new ore tier: silver, a diamond alternative with unique combat mechanics.
Silver gear is as effective as netherite against undead mobs. Against other enemies, silver performs at iron-level strength, encouraging players to think before they swing. Moreover, silver trades a bit of durability for increased enchantability, adding further trade-offs. Since it's a diamond alternative, silver matches diamond in mining speed and can break the same blocks.
The mod also introduces a Hunger Resistance potion, giving rotten flesh, the worst item in the game, a second wind.
Key Features:
- Discover silver ore, a highly enchantable but slightly less durable diamond alternative, just above deepslate layers (Y=8):

- Or mine it in the Nether’s Basalt Deltas:

- Use silver to craft blocks:

- Forge tools and armor specialized for fighting the undead:


- Brew Hunger Resistance potions, finally giving rotten flesh a real use:

- Silver tools deal iron-level damage generally, but netherite-level damage to undead:

- Silver armor gains extra protection and toughness when fighting undead, reaching netherite-tier defense:

- With Hunger Resistance I, rotten flesh works like bread; with Hunger Resistance II, it’s as good as steak:



- But be carefull, you might turn blue:
