Fabric mod that removes item durability
About this Mod
Durability Begone
Removes durability from all items AND rebalances tool/armor stats!
The Durability Begone Mod makes your tools, weapons, and armor unbreakable by default—no more worrying about your gear breaking mid-adventure! But if you want an item to have durability (for challenges or gameplay balance), you can easily make it breakable again.
Plus, we've completely rebalanced armor and tool stats to make Netherite more worth it to get than ever!
Features
No More Breaking: All items become unbreakable default, making them last forever.
Optional Durability: Want an item to be breakable? Just add it to the
durability_begone:breakabletag, and it'll regain its durability.Complete Stat Rebalance:
- Armor: Swapped enchantability values between tiers!
- Gold → Old Diamond values
- Diamond → Old Netherite values
- Netherite → Old Gold values
- Tools: Swapped mining speed and enchantability!
- Gold → Old Diamond values
- Diamond → Old Netherite values
- Netherite → Old Gold values
(Now Netherite is truly the ultimate tier!)
- Armor: Swapped enchantability values between tiers!
Works on Everything: Affects tools, weapons, armor, and even modded items (if you find one that doesn't open an issue on GitHub).
