About this project

What does Quartz Tools add?

Quartz tools hit harder and mine faster than diamond, and take enchantments exceptionally well, but they're fragile: a glass-cannon tool tier that trades durability for raw power.

Features

  • Pickaxe, axe, shovel, hoe, and sword crafted from smooth quartz blocks and sticks using standard vanilla tool crafting patterns
  • Mines anything diamond tools can mine (including obsidian)
  • Mines faster than diamond or netherite (only gold is quicker), with an attack damage bonus equal to netherite's
  • Triple the enchantability of diamond
  • Very low durability: the tradeoff for the stat boost
  • Repairable with smooth quartz blocks
  • Added to the vanilla Tools and Combat creative tabs

Tool Stats

Stat Quartz Diamond
Durability 128 1561
Mining Speed 10.0 8.0
Attack Damage Bonus +4.0 +3.0
Enchantability 30 10

Pandorical

Quartz Tools runs server-side, and Pandorical is required: the server will not load this mod without it. It syncs the tools' textures and models through Pandorical's content sync.

Clients are the optional half. A player on a Pandorical client sees the quartz textures and item names; a player on a vanilla client sees neither. The stats are identical either way.
