Gear progression: making your tools yours.

One thing about minecraft that I like is  how instead of level based it is gear based in its progression, and well this is inspired by mods but I think there should be some more customization to the gear. For this reason I suggest a smithing table and fleching table update.

 

UPDATE: Tools of the trade.

main feature, tool and weapon customization. outside of enchanting.

 

Smithing table, now you can use it to add blade or shaft mods to weapons and tools, wanted your iron ax to have a diamond tip now you can, wanted the wood type of your netherite hoe to be different craft away, wanted to add a lether grip to your shovel now you can.

The smithing table allows 3 new things, Tip customization, Handle material, and grip material.

Tip customization, this allows you to do some interesting things, example would be putting a curved blade on a sword, or diamond tiping your ax. this comes in two flavors type and material. Type changes swing speed and damage a bit, while material changes tool use speed and damage, durability is still based on base craft.

handle material: completely cosmetic

grip material: Increases durability abit, 5% by silk, 10% by leather, and 15% by phantom membrane.

 

Teh black smith table also allows level less repairs but it costs 100% of resources used in crafting, so the more expensive the tool the more expensive it is to repair.

 

---------

fletching table

the same as the smithing but for bows and crossbows, has string, material, and tip mods. all are similar in use.

  ALT IDEA

  This concept involves a complete overhaul of the blacksmith bench. To start the menu would have a place for your tools, and 3 slots one shows the head of the tool, one she shaft, and one a blueprint icon.

   

  With this players can customize tools with tips/blades and handle. blueprints may allow turning tools into a unique item. note each tool can only have one mod per slot.
  
  

  Tips:

  
  these are for example netherite coating on diamond. each one does something different.
  Gold: increase enchant
  iron: increases durability by 10%
  Stone: Stone axes only changes the stone type.
  copper: allows the tool to oxidize, showing age.
  Wood: Bows/crossbows only increases range
  Redstone: hitting redstone blocks activates them.
  glow stone: tool glows when dropped.

   

  Handle:

  These slots allow one to increase durability by adding grips or increase range by adding sticks.

  Sticks: increase range by 1 block but also slows swing speed.
  Leather: flat 10% durability increase
  spider web: flat 5% durability increase
  phantom membrane: increases damage done at night by 2 hearts
  wood: replaces wood with that type.

   

  ----------------------

  Blueprints / Dusty Blueprints

   

  unlike above idea: bluprints would come in two forms standard which can be used infinite times and dusty that is one time use. example of one bellow.

   

  Rake

  Base tool: Hoe
  tip slot: 4 sticks
  handle slot: NA
  blueprint: rake or dusty rake

  Item: rake, can plow or path a 3x1 area.

  We don't need to completely change the weapon system. I want additions to the weapon system, but completely changing what we already have isn't a good idea.
