Improved Golden Tools
This datapack, compatible with vanilla gameplay and multiplayer, fundamentally enhances golden pickaxes, shovels, axes, and hoes while maintaining full support for all standard enchantments.
• Pickaxes and shovels now mine blocks in a 3×3 area, significantly speeding up resource gathering • Axes allow felling entire trees at once and accelerate leaf decay • Hoes till soil and harvest crops in a 3×3 area, and can also harvest blocks in a 3×3×3 volume
For balance, golden tools mine resources slower and lose more durability proportional to the number of blocks affected.
Within this datapack, golden tools become an important step in character progression from mid to late game. They serve as short-lasting but effective upgrades compared to iron tools, and when enchanted can compete with diamond and netherite equivalents.
