Gems & Jewelry

Gems & Jewelry

Mine seven new gemstones, hunt down legendary gems across the world, and forge them into armor, rings, and amulets with real, activatable powers.

Gems & Jewelry adds a full progression of gemstone ores, netherite-tier armor sets with their own set bonuses, rare structure-hunted treasures, and wearable jewelry that does more than look good — every ring has an active ability you trigger with a hotkey, and every amulet grants a passive effect while worn.

✨ Features

⛏️ Gemstone Ores

Seven new ores generate deep underground across the Overworld (diamond-pickaxe tier), each dropping its own gem:

• Ruby, Sapphire, Alexandrite, Topaz, Citrine, Zircon, and Tourmaline

💡 The gem veins use emissive textures — with supported shaders (BSL, Sildur’s Vibrant, OptiFine emissive, etc.) the gems glow in the dark, making ores easier to spot.

💎 Legendary Gems

Powerful one-of-a-kind gems hidden throughout the world — each tied to a specific source:

🛡️ Gem Armor

Seven full armor sets — one per gem — crafted just like vanilla armor but with the matching gem. Every set has netherite-tier protection (identical defense, toughness, knockback resistance, enchantability and durability) and is fireproof in lava. Wearing a complete set grants a unique passive bonus:

🎨 Every piece accepts all vanilla smithing trims, so you can decorate your gem armor just like vanilla gear.
