Whether you’re aiming for more meaningful gear progression, challenging survival mechanics, or simply tired of tools lasting forever, this mod helps bring durability management back into focus.
🧱 What it does:
- Mending no longer appears on enchanted books or loot.
- Mending cannot be obtained via enchanting tables, trades, or anvils.
- Existing Mending items in worlds will have the enchantment stripped on load.
- New: Config option to allow or disable Mending in chest loot
- When enabled, Mending becomes a rare exploration reward
- Villagers will still not trade Mending
A perfect companion for survival-focused, hardcore, or progression-based modpacks where resource management matters again.
