Equipment

Equipment covers the tools, weapons and armor of Matcha Flavoured. The pack rebuilds vanilla progression: stone tools can't be crafted, diamonds must be smelted, and four alloys (shakudo, hepatizon, steel and electrum) join adamant, the renamed netherite.
Progression
- Wood: first tools.
- Copper: copper ingots from a mud kiln.
- Iron: iron ingots from a blast furnace.
- Diamond: raw diamonds smelted in a blast furnace.
Alloys are then smithed onto base gear at a smithing table (see Alloy): steel onto iron, shakudo and hepatizon onto copper, electrum and adamant onto diamond. Gold is a side tier with Fortune and Looting.
The four base tiers, the station that smelts each one's material, and the alloys smithed onto each.
The developer's goal is horizontal choice rather than a single best set: "I hope these alloys are tempting in their own right, and I hope too that you'll have trouble deciding on which alloys and equipment you choose to wear."[1] The 1.12.1-alpha notes describe shakudo and hepatizon as "horizontal progression--VIABLE and interesting choices for the player, even in late-game."[2]
Tiers
| Tier | Tools | Weapons | Armor | Intrinsics |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wooden | Yes | Yes | — | Wooden tools are the first tier. Stone tool recipes are blocked in Matcha Flavoured, so the next tier is copper. |
| Copper | Yes | Yes | Yes | Copper is the second tier, between wood and iron. Its ingots are smelted in a mud kiln, and copper gear is the base for the shakudo and hepatizon alloys. |
| Iron | Yes | Yes | Yes | Iron is the third tier. Iron ingots come from a blast furnace, and iron gear is the base for steel. |
| Steel | Yes | Yes | Yes | Steel is the alloy tier of iron: very durable, and its weapons and armor add knockback and blast resistance. |
| Golden | Yes | Yes | Yes | Golden equipment comes enchanted with Fortune, Looting or Fire Protection. It mines fast but wears out quickly. |
| Diamond | Yes | Yes | Yes | Diamond gear has no intrinsics of its own but is the only base that can take electrum or adamant. |
| Shakudo | Yes | Yes | Yes | Shakudo is a copper and gold alloy. Its tools have Silk Touch, its weapons steal life and its armor regenerates health and cleanses effects. |
| Hepatizon | Yes | Yes | Yes | Hepatizon is a copper, silver and gold alloy. It has the highest base mining speeds in the pack and every piece adds movement speed. |
| Electrum | Yes | Yes | Yes | Electrum is a silver and gold alloy smithed onto diamond gear. Its tools are the only source of Fortune III, and its armor and weapons carry Warding. |
| Adamant | Yes | Yes | Yes | Adamant replaces netherite. Its armor carries Doom, its weapons inflict Weakness and its tools smelt what they mine. |
| Leather | — | — | Yes | Leather armor is crafted from tattered leather, the item zombies drop, and every piece adds safe fall distance. |
| Sturdy Leather | — | — | Yes | Sturdy leather armor is a stronger leather set with Projectile Protection and extra safe fall distance. |
| Chainmail | — | — | Yes | Chainmail armor is craftable from iron chains and every piece has Thorns III. |
How pack equipment differs from vanilla
- Vanilla tool and armor recipes are blocked by the data pack's filter and replaced with the pack's own recipes, which set durability, attributes, mining rules and intrinsics as item components.[3] Items crafted before an update keep their old stats.
- Tooltips hide the real attribute lines and show hand-written values instead. A few disagree with the real values; the item pages note each case.
- Intrinsics are stored as stored enchantments and moved onto the item when it enters an inventory, keeping the higher level of any enchantment already present.[4]
- Every piece of equipment can be repaired indefinitely.
- The loot tables under
matcha:equipment/define the canonical version of each item; chest loot and/lootuse them.
