Everlast Gear
Prevents tools and armor from breaking by locking durability at 1, disabling tool use and removing all armor protection, with configurable allow/deny item filtering.
About this Mod
Everlasting Armor – Never Break, Never Fail
Everlasting Armor is a lightweight NeoForge mod for Minecraft 1.21.1 that fundamentally changes how tools and armor behave when they reach their last point of durability.
✨ Core Features
Durability Lock at 1 – When any tool, weapon, or armor piece drops to 1 durability, it stops taking further damage. It will never break, no matter how much you use it.
Tool Disable – Once at durability 1, tools can no longer mine blocks or perform right‑click actions (e.g., placing blocks, using items). This prevents accidental use of broken items.
Armor Protection Removal – Armor at durability 1 loses all defensive attributes:
Armor points (armor value)
Armor toughness
Knockback resistance
Any other attribute modifiers from the item
Universal Compatibility – Works with any item that uses Minecraft's standard durability system, including items from other mods (unless they use custom energy systems or completely custom durability components).
⚙️ Fully Configurable (Client & Server)
You can control exactly which items are affected by the mod via a simple JSON config file (config/everlasting_armor.json).
🎯 Why Use This Mod?
Eliminates the frustration of breaking your favourite gear.
Adds a strategic layer – you must repair your equipment to regain its full power.
Perfect for adventure maps, survival challenges, or just a more relaxed gameplay experience.
Lightweight and server‑friendly – works on both client and dedicated server.
🔧 Technical Notes
The mod does not override any base game classes via mixins; it uses NeoForge's event system, making it highly compatible with other mods.
Config changes require a game restart to take effect.
