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
Combat
It deals 4 ( × 2) damage with no attack cooldown: the item sets a damage bonus but no attack speed, so it keeps the base speed of 4. It has 3000 durability.
Intrinsics
Smite IV, Looting II and Warding 2. Intrinsics are stored on the item and applied as enchantments when it enters a player's inventory.[2]
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.[3]
Trading
An apprentice weaponsmith buys it for one electrum alloy, so the alloy can be reused.[4]
Notes
- The hand-written tooltip hides the real attributes and shows attack speed 1.18 (real value 4).[5]
History
| 0.4-alpha | Added. |
|---|---|
| 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. |
| 1.12.2 | No longer burns in fire or lava. Warding from held items now stacks with other held warding items. Moved to the matcha namespace; older copies can be updated with /trigger update_item.
