Overview
Better Tools and Armor is not just another overpowered toolpack mod. It aims to overhaul Minecraft's progression system by extending it past Netherite and adding more player choice, all while encouraging exploration. Many new ores and resources are added, each of which spawning in unique locations. Every tool/armor-set in the mod is designed to have a unique feel to it. For example, Sapphire tools can freeze your opponents!
On top of all this, BT+A adds a whole heap of other features designed to fit well into Survival Minecraft, with a kind of vanilla-plus feel to them. Check out the Images Tab, and the Knowledge Base for more information!
