Copper Plus 1.21+

In vanilla Minecraft Bedrock Edition, copper often feels like a wasted opportunity—present, but not essential. The Copper Plus Addon completely changes that. By introducing new copper-based gear tiers, oxidation visuals, and a one-of-a-kind Thunder Sword, this addon gives copper a new identity: functional, fierce, and worth mining.

Whether you’re a survival strategist or an adventurer chasing storms, this addon makes copper an exciting part of your world.

What Is the Copper Plus Addon?

The Copper Plus Addon is a balanced gameplay enhancement for Minecraft Bedrock (MCPE). It’s designed to make copper more useful by expanding its role across armor, tools, and weapons—without straying far from the core vanilla experience.

At its core, the addon introduces:

• Four custom material sets: Copper, Rose Gold, Ferro Copper, and Thunder.
• A unique lightning mechanic tied to copper gear.
• Waxing and oxidation systems for cosmetic progression.

This is the kind of addon that feels native to Minecraft. If you’ve ever wished copper did more, this is your answer.

All Four Gear Sets Explained

Copper Plus Addon introduces four gear sets, each tailored for a different survival stage. These tools and armor pieces are crafted using a mix of copper, gold, and iron—making them accessible yet meaningful.

Copper Gear – Your First Upgrade

• Tool Damage: Sword 6, Axe 5
• Mining Speed: 8
• Armor Protection: 13

A great starter set. It offers more durability than stone tools and fits perfectly into early survival gameplay.

Rose Gold Gear – Balanced and Stylish

• Crafted From: Copper + Gold
• Armor Protection: 15

With a polished visual and slightly better stats than base copper, Rose Gold gear offers a stylish bridge between copper and iron levels.

Ferro Copper Gear – Strength Meets Speed

• Crafted From: Copper + Iron
• Tool Damage: Sword 7, Pickaxe 5
• Mining Speed: 10
• Armor Protection: 20

This is your high-performance gear for advanced survival and mining. It’s a strong alternative to netherite and works great for mobile-friendly progression.

Thunder Sword – Lightning-Powered Combat

• Base Damage: 5
• Special Effect: Chance to summon lightning on hit
• How to Craft: Expose a copper sword to a thunderstorm while wearing copper armor

The Thunder Sword brings cinematic flair to your survival world and turns storms into power sources.

How the Thunder Mechanic Works

The Thunder Sword is the addon’s standout feature. It ties weather, gear, and combat together in a smart, survival-friendly way.

Crafting the Copper Sword

To begin the process:

• Craft a base sword using 2 copper ingots and 1 stick
• Use a regular crafting table and sword recipe layout
• This sword is your key to unlocking thunder power

Preparing for a Storm

To charge the sword, you’ll need:

• A full set of copper armor equipped
• A thunderstorm (either natural or command-summoned)
• An open space with exposure to the sky

Standing out during a thunderstorm is risky. But for the Thunder Sword, it’s worth it.

Charging the Thunder Sword

When lightning strikes your character (or the area nearby) while you’re holding the sword and wearing copper armor:

• The sword becomes charged with storm energy
• It may change visually, depending on your settings
• Once charged, it gains the ability to occasionally summon lightning when used in combat

Using It in Battle

The Thunder Sword doesn’t replace traditional damage—it enhances it.

• Each strike has a chance to trigger a lightning bolt
• Ideal against mob groups, Creepers, and boss enemies
• Usable in both survival and multiplayer, assuming all players have the addon installed

Waxing and Oxidation Features

The Copper Plus Addon also introduces visual storytelling through oxidation and waxing—making your gear feel alive.

How Oxidation Works

• Copper armor and tools change color over time, turning green like copper blocks
• This transformation is purely cosmetic unless modified by updates

How to Wax Items

• Use a honeycomb on copper gear to lock in its current appearance
• You can wax gear via crafting or by right-clicking
• Great for maintaining clean visuals or showcasing a full oxidized armor set in your base

This small system adds immersion and roleplay value without complicating gameplay.

Compatibility and Performance Tips

Copper Plus Addon is designed for wide compatibility and smooth performance, especially for mobile players.

It runs cleanly and doesn’t conflict with core files, making it ideal for addon stacks and custom modpacks.

Tips for Survival Players

Here are a few suggestions to get the most from the Copper Plus Addon in survival:

• Follow gear progression: Copper → Rose Gold → Ferro Copper → Thunder Sword
• Keep honeycomb handy to preserve armor appearances
• Wear copper armor when charging the Thunder Sword—don’t risk it bare
• Disable “New Recipe Unlocks” if you prefer a clean recipe book
• Pair this addon with mining or weather-based content for immersive synergy

Final Thoughts – Why Copper Plus Addon Is Worth It

The Copper Plus Addon doesn’t just make copper useful—it makes it exciting. With its lightning-infused weaponry, oxidation-aware aesthetics, and balanced survival upgrades, this addon turns an overlooked resource into the centerpiece of your progression.

It’s not about flashy extras—it’s about meaningful mechanics. The kind of small but powerful changes that feel like they always belonged in Minecraft. If you’re ready to survive the storm and harness the sky, Copper Plus Addon is your next must-have.
