The upgrade needs no template, and enchantments on the diamond item carry over; where both have the same enchantment, the higher level is kept.[1]
Usage
Digging
It breaks shovel blocks at speed 12 and has 3000 durability. Its Fortune III raises gravel's flint drop.
Intrinsics
The electrum fortune intrinsic () works like Fortune on ores, crops and leaves; the pack's loot tables check for it directly. Electrum tools are the only source of Fortune III in the pack, and the intrinsic cannot be combined with Fortune or Silk Touch.[2] Intrinsics are stored on the item and applied as enchantments when it enters a player's inventory.[3]
Combat
It deals 6 ( × 3) damage at an attack speed of 1.
Repairing
It can be repaired in an anvil with blocks of diamond. The pack resets repair costs to zero, so it can be repaired indefinitely; see Repairing.

Electrum Alloy
|
In a blast furnace it melts down into an adamant alloy, not electrum, because electrum shares the netherite item IDs. This makes melting electrum gear a way to turn an electrum alloy into an adamant alloy.[4]
Trading
An apprentice weaponsmith buys it for one electrum alloy, so the alloy can be reused.[5]
Notes
- It uses a netherite item ID, so it does not burn in fire or lava.
History
| 1.03 | Electrum alloy now needs a divine fragment. |
|---|---|
| 1.10 | Electrum was buffed. A weaponsmith now takes the item back in exchange for its alloy, so players can rebuild it with updated stats. |
| 1.12.1-alpha | Smithing no longer takes an ingot in the template slot, and the upgrade keeps the base item's enchantments. Added the "Repaired with" tooltip. Can only be repaired with blocks of diamond. Electrum became the only source of Fortune III. |
| 1.12.2 | No longer burns in fire or lava. Warding was removed from electrum tools so that they focus on Fortune. Moved to the matcha namespace; older copies can be updated with /trigger update_item.
