1.17 The Forging Update

The Forging Update is a major update that will be added around 2021. It adds usable hammers, a new ore and much more...  
 
== Ornemax Ore ==
The new ore is Ornemax Ore. It looks like bedrock and is only found at bedrock level. It can be made into gear. It is not stronger than Netherite but deals more damage than diamonds.  
== Enchantments ==
There is a new enchantment called Boomerang, and there are three versions. It is similar to Loyalty on a trident and makes the weapon come back to you. You can now throw axes and swords. Another new enchantment is called Frosty Hands. You can put it on your forging gloves. It makes your forged items cool when you take them out. Obscurement: Reduced mob range when wearing a blast mask. Reflector: There are four versions and each one has a bigger chance to reflect. Can be put on a Blast mask. Mirrored Visor: There are three versions and mobs can't see you at first and think you are one of their own. Can be put on a Blast mask.  
== Villagers ==
Miner Villagers have been added with their job site block being a Crusher. A crusher is a block crafted with four iron ingots and two pistons. It is a faster way to get ores. But, little pieces can go flying and have a chance to deal a half heart. Miners trade for different variaties of pickaxes and and ores. Forgers have also been added with a Forging Table being their job site block. Forgers trade for weapons, iron tools, iron bars and more. They are also the only villager that can fight. They will use any weapon they have and at least two are in every village.  
== Hammers ==
Hammers have been added and deal 3 more damage than swords. A wooden hammer is as strong as a Iron Sword!!! Of course, there is always a downside. They are extremely slow. But another good thing about them is their durability. They also knock enemies back pretty far. They can even knock back people with Netherite Armor!!!  
  
== Mobs ==
The Dillager is the newest illager and they wield a Stone Spear. Spears deal as much damage as a sword and you can throw them. They go farther than axes and swords and can pierce through one target. Dillagers spawn at Pillager Outposts and appear in wave 3 of a raid. Crushedszs-whaa? Whatever... a new type of zombie has been added called a crushed. They have 25 half hearts and deal 10 damage and are extremely slow. They only spawn rarely in the desert biome.  
  
== Forging Table ==
Another new block is called the Forging Table. It is crafted with a bucket of lava, 7 iron ingots, and an iron hammer. (Or diamond, ornemax, or netherite.) Forging tables can repair your tools by dipping them into the lava. The lava has to be refilled after every 3 dips. Iron bars can no longer be crafted. Dip an iron ingot in the lava and it will turn into iron bars. When you try to repair your iron armor, you can either repair it, or turn it into chain mail.    
== Blocks ==
* Crusher    
* Forging Table    
* Ornemax Ore    
* Block of Ornemax    
* Molten Durvan    
* Dry Magma Block
* Iron Bricks
== Forging Gloves ==
You can craft Forging Gloves with 4 pieces of leather and they keep you safe from the steaming forged items that you take out of a Forging Table. When a forged item is hot, you can not craft any thing with it. If you hold it with your bare hands, you will start taking damage. Hot item time: 5 mins. Can be healed with a potion of fire resistance. 
== Crusher ==
Crushers are a new, more advanced block that crush ores so you can get things like diamonds and netherite. Pieces go flying though, and you need to wear a blast mask to protect yourself.
== Changes to Anvils ==
You can now repair anvils. If the anvil is slightly damaged, 3 iron ingots can repair it. If the anvil is heavily damaged, 6 iron ingots can repair it. You now must have a hammer to use an anvil. You can now create your own tools! Right-click with an iron tool or better on an anvil and you can change the shape of your item! If it is too big, you must add 1 or more iron ingots, diamonds, or netherite scraps. You can now uncraft any iron tool or higher! 
== Structures ==
New structures include Blacksmith Workshops and Castlewrecks. Blacksmith Workshops include a lava pool, possible anvils, grindstones, smithing tables, blast furnaces, crushers, or forging tables, and chests with iron, gold, hammers and apples. Castlewrecks contain rooms full of loot, but they are extremely rare. Zombies with chain mail spawn with an iron sword. There is even a king room which has armor stands with half diamond, half iron armor. Chests have Golden apples, iron possibly diamond swords, bread, water bottles, and emeralds. King chests have diamond swords, cooked rabbit, water bottles, emeralds, and a 50% chance to have an enchanted golden apple.
