Lonsdaleite is a simple mod which adds another tier of tools/armor that has more durability than Diamond. It is an alternative for Netherite, but at a cost.
GETTING STARTED:
Starting Note:
This does not add any new ore to the game. Diamond is required to create Lonsdaleite. This is a standalone mod and would not require a new world/new chunks.
Features:
- Lonsdaleite Omnitool
- Lonsdaleite/Perfect Lonsdaleite Tools (Hoe, Pickaxe, Axe, Sword, and Shovel)
- Lonsdaleite/Perfect Lonsdaleite Armor (Helm, Chest, Leggings, Boots)
- New weapon type "Dagger" (much faster, but less damage than the sword archetype)
- New weapon type "War Axe" (much slower, but hits like a truck)

How to Get Lonsdaleite Gems:
To get get started, you'll want to mine a lot of diamond. (No, seriously). You'll put 8 diamond plus 1 obsidian into the crafting table to get a raw Lonsdaleite, then craft again to get a prepared one (recipe shown below), then stick it into the blast furnace.
Step 1: Diamond -> Raw Lonsdaleite
Step 2: Raw Lonsdaleite -> Prepared Lonsdaleite
(Blocks of coal, Gunpowder, and Raw Lonsdaleite)
Step 3: Prepared Lonsdaleite -> Lonsdaleite Gems (Blast Furnace)
Step 4: Lonsdaleite Gems -> Perfect Lonsdaleite Gems (Optional)
- Add Lonsdaleite Gems back into the Blast Furnace to get Perfect Lonsdaleite Gems for the higher tier of Tools & Armor.
- Be prepared with your fuel, as this takes a while.
Lonsdaleite is a Fabric Mod. There are no plans for Forge at this time.
