I think the reason that ores are seen as useful is because they know what they need them for. Iron is used for early game tools and armour along with various other uses, lapis is used primarily for enchanting, gold for bartering, copper for building etc. Amythest is used for two items that are rarely used (spyglass and tinted glass) and a niche mechanic with allays. I think that the allay mechanic could be expanded upon by making amythest’s main use about purification. Things like turning warped nylium into crimson nylium, curing vexes (which may provide a much needed nerf to them by giving them some sort of weakness) making phantoms disappear within a 5 block radius of the player or even stunning other undead mobs such as zombies for a short period of time. This could be done by adding different items crafted for any of those uses or (what I think would be best given the current inventory problem) by adding a right click functionality to the amythest crystal that consumes it upon imput. I think this would fit well as it’s a renewable ore and can even now be found commonly in trial chambers. Also mojang if you are reading this feel free to change anything I’ve stated to fit what would be right for the game.
