In this version:

• Combining a Ruined item with a Name Tag named "clear" will remove all the Lore on the item

  • This acts like any other Ruined item (can be repaired in the Crafting Grid & Empowered at a Smithing Table)
  • The Config field "ruinedItemsAshesRepairItems" sets which Item should be used to repair the ruined item at an Anvil (e.g. "copper_mod:copper_sword/minecraft:copper_ingot;" means the "copper_mod:copper_sword" uses the "minecraft:copper_ingot" to repair)
  • There's also a blocklist in case you want to disable specific modded items
