Better With Gold is a lightweight expansion mod that gives gold the value and utility it always deserved. Instead of being just shiny, now it’s powerful, versatile, and worth collecting.

Craft new gold-based armors, tools, and items with special traits that set them apart from vanilla gear. Whether you're playing solo or adding to a modpack, this mod adds more depth and progression to your Minecraft experience.

Use a Smithing Table to apply Gold Upgrade Templates. These templates allow you to:

  • Add enchantment-like effects without XP
  • Combine materials to evolve your tools
  • Transform basic gold gear into specialized equipment

Templates can be:

  • Crafted using gold x7 + amethyst x1 + obsidian x1.
  • Found in dungeon loot, temples, and vaults.
  • Traded with specialized villagers.

New Weapons

All new weapons come in both normal and reinforced versions:

  • Golden Scythe
    Performs an AOE sweeping attack, perfect for crowd control.
  • Great Axe
    Deals increased damage the lower your enemy’s health is, making it a brutal finisher.
  • Impact Blade 
    Deals bonus damage based on your fall distance jump attacks now hit hard.

New Food Item

When consumed, grants:

  • Water Breathing
  • Regeneration
  • Dolphin’s Grace
