Add a new rare ore (rare as diamonds) into the nether, for new craftable armor/weapons/tools
This rare ore would have a special attribute to it, using XP while equipped or held to give a positive effect, and a negative effect when out of XP. It would be better than diamond with xp, but worse than diamond without xp
Reason? XP is currently of no consequence in the mid to late game, we gather dozens of levels and sit on it till we die. This will add a use for XP, add in a prolonged use of XP farms in the game, and add in some end-game decision making to be done by the player on what to carry and why based on what project they are working on or enemy they are fighting.
Idea's for effects.
Tools - with xp, added haste 1 effect or increase fortune effect, without XP effect slow mining speed or increased durability wear
Weapons - With XP the player could get small health gains from damaging enemies or cause a slow effect to enemies hit. Without XP the weapon causes less damage, or could slow the players movement
Armor - With XP could slow enemies within a #block radius of the player, or cause knockback effect on the attacking enemy, without XP could slow the players movement, or cause increased damage to the player
Visually this armor would be a darker color... or maybe even dyable by special mushrooms or other items gathered in the nether to allow for nether like color variations and enchanting the items would give it a dark grey or black glow-like effect.
