Hey everyone.
I've been working on a remade version of our Storm Shards plugin, and today we're finally ready to release it!
The system is largely the same, however it was recreated to be more efficient and customizable for the server. I've still got a bit of work to do as far as polishing the plugin, but it's overall done, although I may add more features in the future.

The new shard description
Your old storm shards will no longer work, however you can convert them to the new shards with the command below.
/shardconvert <amount>
Please note your new shards will be dropped at your feet, so be sure you're in a safe place so you don't lose your new shard.
You cannot however convert your old items that were improved with a storm shard, however those items should be able to work with the new system.

The new improved item descriptions
The new system is unique from the old one in a few ways. The largest difference is the method in which you apply storm shards to your items. Instead of adding the item you'd like to combine with a shard in an anvil, you need to go to the windmill at spawn and stand on the emerald block inside of the windmill while it is raining, you can then use the command /shard to apply a storm shard in your inventory to a sword, axe, bow, or piece of armor that you are holding. The only other major difference is there are now only 5 levels instead of 10, and there is currently no risk of your item breaking while upgrading.

You can also use the command /shardbonus to see your current damage and defense bonuses.

Please note the values here aren't calculated correctly, the actual bonuses are 4.5% and 3% to weapons/armor respectively.
