Craft and Use Silver Tools and Armor

Create Your Silver Gear

Silver tools and armor are crafted using silver ingots in the same patterns as iron or diamond gear. They offer good damage output and balanced durability, making them a solid mid-game choice.

Crafting Silver Equipment

Arrange silver ingots in the standard tool or armor patterns:

• Pickaxe, axe, shovel, hoe, sword: Use ingots in the typical tool shape
• Helmet, chestplate, leggings, boots: Use ingots in the standard armor layout
• Horse armor: Craft silver horse armor to equip on your mount for protection

All silver gear works with armor trims, letting you customize the appearance with different materials.

Combat Performance

Silver weapons deal respectable damage comparable to iron-tier tools. Durability is moderate, so repair them at an anvil using silver ingots when needed.

Additional Features

• Silver blocks can form beacon bases to activate beacon powers
• Hostile mobs may spawn wearing silver armor in dark areas, so you might find loot when defeating them
• Silver armor integrates with vanilla armor trim systems for cosmetic customization
