End Shard

End Shard is a new ore found in the End, it is used to upgrade Netherite gear.

What it offers:

Ore, Nugget, Ingot, Block, Upgrade Smithing Template, A full set of gear, that is full Armour and Tools, and new Advancements.

How it works:

In the End, a new Ore is generated called "End Shard Ore," when mind (with Diamond tools or higher), it drops a Nugget, 9 Nuggets are need to craft an Ingot.

In End Cities, there's a rare chance for the new "End Shard Upgrade Smithing Template" to spawn in the End City Treasure Loot Table, and it can be crafted, just like the Netherite Upgrade Smithing Template, but with a slightly modified crafting recipe (which is provided in the images provided above.)

You get a Smithing Table, an End Shard Ingot and an End Shard Upgrade Smithing Template, and obviously Netherite gear, just like you how you upgrade Diamond gear to Netherite.

There are three total Advancements that can be easily achieved.

As for the stats of the gear, they are pretty much Netherite stats with a few modified stats:

Sword Damage - 10
Axe Damage - 14
Pickaxe, Axe, Shovel and Hoe Efficiency - 12
Armour Toughness - 4.0
Amour Knockback Resistance - 0.2
Armour Durability is increased
Enchantability for all gear - 20
(A minor thing that should be mentioned is that both the Ore and the Block have Amethyst sounds, which are amazing but aren't used much so I thought I'd use them lol)

The following stats have not changed (compared to Netherite):

Tool Durability
Tools Attack Speeds

(Keep in mind that the mod is made using MCreator since it's my first mod and I can't code. I'm aware of the hate against MCreator and the fact that it's not optimized, however, this is a relatively small mod so it should not be an issue.)
