About this Mod

The classic 3x3 Mining Hammer, but crafted using Purpur and Netherite to only make it accessible in the lategame.

The 3x3 mining hammer has been an iconic tool in modded Minecraft for a while now. Some people love it, some people hate it. I personally hate it, but I also cannot deny how useful it is for resource gathering when I'm working on a bigger project. That being said, they can also ruin the flow of the game if acquired too early, making mining for diamonds in the early game completely trivial. I tried to fix this by locking it behind 2 conditions: acquiring netherite, and visiting an end city. It can be repaired using netherite.
