Rubys and Skulk

# 💎 Ruby Mod

Ruby Mod adds a little extra sparkle to Minecraft with **rubies**, **ruby ore**, **deepslate ruby ore**, and a complete ruby tool set.

Place and mine the new ores with a diamond pickaxe or better to collect rubies. Fortune works too, so a lucky pickaxe can give you even more!

## What it adds

- Ruby ore with a regular-stone texture
- Deepslate ruby ore with a deep-stone texture
- A shiny ruby item dropped by both ores
- Fortune-compatible ruby drops
- Ruby sword, axe, pickaxe, shovel, and hoe
- A complete ruby armor set with diamond-level defense, extra toughness, and durability between diamond and netherite
- Ruby armor items that can be repaired with rubies; netherite keeps its unique fire resistance
- Familiar vanilla crafting recipes using rubies and sticks
- Ruby tools that can be repaired with rubies
- Ruby tools balanced above diamond and below netherite: 1,800 durability, 8.5 mining speed, and a 3.5 damage bonus
- Infested rubies crafted by surrounding an echo shard with eight rubies
- A complete infested ruby armor and tool set with stats two points above netherite
- Ruby and infested ruby storage blocks with reversible nine-item crafting recipes
- Infested ruby pickaxe modes: auto-smelt drops, instant breaking (except obsidian and unbreakable blocks), and Fortune 10; the pickaxe never loses durability in any mode
- Hold right-click with the infested ruby sword to fire a durability-draining beam that deals 9 damage every second
- Press Y while holding the sword to toggle rapid beam mode (9 damage every 0.25 seconds)

Ruby ore generates naturally in Overworld caves from Y -64 to Y 32, with the highest concentration around Y -16.
