Copper in vanilla Minecraft feels underused — you can build a lightning rod, a spyglass, and a few decorative blocks, but that's about it. Everything is Copper Mod changes that entirely by expanding copper into a full-tier material with armor, tools, weapons, building blocks, and even a copper golem. With over 42,000 downloads and active updates since 2023, this mod by LobsterJonn has become a go-to choice for players who want copper to feel like a proper crafting material alongside iron and diamond.
Key Features
- Full Copper Equipment Set — Craft copper armor, tools, weapons, horse armor, and shears, giving copper a practical role in your survival progression.
- Oxidation States on Everything — All copper items follow vanilla's oxidation mechanic with four states: unaffected, exposed, weathered, and oxidized. Your gear ages over time just like copper blocks.
- Copper Building Blocks — Adds doors, trapdoors, pressure plates, bars, lanterns, chains, hoppers, anvils, and rails — all made from copper, all with oxidation variants.
- Copper Golem — A new mob that interacts with buttons, bringing the community-voted copper golem concept to life in your world.
- Dungeon Loot Integration — Tarnished copper items can be found in dungeon chests, adding a treasure-hunting incentive and making exploration more rewarding.
