Emerald armor & weapons (was: Emerald Weapons)

under review

I think it would be cool if there was emerald weapons and armor. Its weapon strength should be in the middle of wood and gold. Its armor protection should be in the middle of leather and gold.

    I think at least 8 damage for the sword, 7 for the axe ,6 for the pickaxe and 3 for the shovel.

    Well, seeing as emeralds are the rarest ores in the game I think it should be a little bit worse then diamond armour but provide buffs such are speed, strength and haste.

    Logic.

    Yeah and only villagers could make them! Just because there is no actual value to them but Villagers are willing to take them for whatever reason!

    Emerald should stay only money equivalent, IMHO. No support for this one.

    I feel like this could be a good idea but I have some changes. First of all, I’ve noticed some people have said that emeralds are the rarest but they are actually easy to get if you trade for them. Second of all, I don’t want another armor set that’s the same. It should have some unique trait that only goes to it. Maybe instead of there being an emerald sword there is a dagger, which would have less range but if you held the button you could charge a small dash attack that would push you forward a block or two, and damage all enemies in the way. The armor could also have a very faint glow, and the more emerald armor pieces you have on, the brighter it is. This would also make up for holdable torches that people want

    I think they should put this armor because, outside the villagers, the emerald is super difficult to achieve, it would not be bad if the enchantments that could be put into it were 1 more than the others, for example, Protection V

    yo no lo añadiria, ya que la esmeralda se implementó como "dinero o material comercializable"

    Juan Murillo actually since 1.14 emerald are much easier to get because of more balanced trades

    That's gonna make them useless. They should be as strong as a diamond sword but with slightly weaker durability

    My idea for this is that emerald tools are faster, emerald weapons do more damage, emerald armor has more defense, but break easily, perhaps a little more durability than gold, so there's a tradeoff.

    Emerald is rare so it has to sit between iron and diamond. It should perform as gold, but be twice as durable as iron. It should not be as enchantable as gold to not make gold even more useless.

    Horrible Idea! Emeralds can bei easily obtained by traiding with Villagers so IF they are going to add Emerald Gear anyway, it should be worse than Iron Tools.

    I feel like emerald tools should be better than iron (possibly as good as diamond), since emeralds are hard to find. However, emerald ore isn't really durable and you can get emeralds through villagers, so maybe they had low durability similarly to gold/iron tools.

    no. emeralds are a currency. if you want more armor/tool options put rubies back into the game.

    They would be made out of block's of emerald and chestplate would have the tank enchantment which makes you take no knockback and sword has multicut which lets you attack multiple enemies at once AND it is better than diamond

    This would be interesting, but note that, despite being a 7.5-8 on the hardness scale, it isn’t very resistant to breakage because of inclusion, while no one has to worry about it in Minecraft, that is still one of many reasons Emerald armor won’t be added, sadly. That and I doubt Mojang wants to add more armor unless it will improve the game for the better, messes with progression

    I think that with the rarity of emeralds, it should at least be as strong as iron and maybe have a perk like lowering the cost of trades with villagers if you have the full set

    yes I honestly feel like emeralds should have more uses

    Perhaps they are equal to diamonds, but with their rarity, their attack cooldown is 75% of diamond. With the new update with combat, this could really set our sights on expansion, so we are not burned out on just getting diamonds.

    Why make it very weak?

    I think it should only be available through trading for a high price and high level villagers to add a challenge to get it.

    It is a bad idea.

    Emeralds are money, but not mineral in any way.

    Emerald Tools, Weapons, and Armor should be in the game, but if it's as weak as gold is, why would anybody want to craft them? Emeralds are already extremely rare, this would just be a waste of a rare resource. it would be more sensical to make Emerald gear have the same strength as iron or diamond.
