Shining Amethyst Shard
Introduction
Shining Amethyst Shard is a crafting and repair item for horse armor, player armor and tools.
Obtaining
Natural Generation
Shining Amethyst Shards can be obtained from clusters that occur naturally in Amethyst Geodes.
- Clusters grow on Budding Amethyst blocks, and only become "shining" on full growth.
- Clusters have 25% chance to be shining and 75% default Amethyst.
- Shining Amethyst clusters have a subtle blue coloring.
Chances of Shining Amethyst spawns can be modified in the common config file.
Mineral Bonemeal
Right Click a Budding Amethyst or Amethyst Cluster with Mineral Bonemeal to increase spawns and growth.
Regrowth
Budding Amethyst will slowly regenerate new clusters when players are nearby to load the chunks.
