💎 The "Scrappy Underdog" Philosophy

Emerald equipment is designed as the practical mid-tier choice: durable enough to be your everyday gear, protective enough to handle most challenges, and enchantable enough to customize to your playstyle.

It's not as flashy as diamond, but it gets the job done and plays nice with your enchanting table.
