This mod introduces four specialized tools—Axe, Pickaxe, Shovel, and Hoe—that retain Netherite's base stats while gaining unique abilities.
Core Features
- Amethyst Shovel & Pickaxe: Mines in a 3×3 area.
- Amethyst Hoe: Harvest, replant, and till in 3×3 areas with a single action.
- Amethyst Axe: High-precision tree felling that clears entire trees while strictly avoiding nearby player builds.
Amethyst Energy System
Each tool features a dedicated 3000-point Amethyst Charge, independent of its standard durability. Using Amethyst effects consumes this energy, causing the tool to revert to a standard Netherite state upon depletion. Recharging is achieved through Amethyst Clusters, merging tools, or via a Mending enchatment.
The Evolution Ritual
Creation requires more than just crafting; it requires a ritual. Deep within an Amethyst Geode, you must harness a Beacon's light to forge your tools. This is not a simple placement of items, but a trial of optics and geometry:
- Manipulate the Light: Use various growth stages of Amethyst to reflect, refract, and extend the beam.
- A Seed-Based Puzzle: The path to evolution is unique to your world. You must find the exact sequence of reflections required by your specific coordinates and world seed.
- Visual Alignment: Watch the beam’s color shift as it nears the correct frequency. Only a pure white light, maintained for a steady 10 seconds, has the power to transform Netherite into something far more mystical.

neat
Amethyst energy system reminds me of the abandoned NauTec mod, a really interesting mod that go shafted really badly. This feels like a better execution of the idea.
