Armor Reclaimer
Armor Reclaimer is a simple yet powerful mod that makes metal recovery smarter.
Smelt your iron and gold armor - including iron and gold horse armor—to reclaim full ingots, while tools and weapons still yield nuggets.
Have you ever traded with villagers or explored mineshafts, finding tons of armor you’ll never wear? Armor Reclaimer ensures that all that extra gear doesn’t go to waste - turn it into valuable materials and keep your resources efficient.
This rewards careful crafting and clever resource management, making every piece of metal count!
