AttackBoots
AttackBoots turns a fall into a slam attack: boots that deal area damage on landing from a height, adding a combat option to Fabric worlds on 1.21.10.
What it does
Wearing the boots, a player who drops from a height and lands triggers an area attack. Fall distance is converted into damage, with the strike hitting everything within a three-block radius around the point of impact. Landing only counts as an attack once the fall passes the minimum height, so short hops do nothing. The effect is meant for aerial combat and crowd control, where height and positioning decide how hard a slam lands.
Damage grows at 4.5 per block fallen, capped at 45 points, which equals the full health bar for the highest drops. Each impact shows explosion particles and plays impact sounds, so a slam is clear to read in a fight. The mod is a Fabric build for 1.21.10 only, with a single file published on 2025-12-11. Client and server both need it, so the server and every player run the same boots. It is released under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 4.0 license and is not open source.

Automatic trigger
A landing starts the attack without any key press once the fall passes the minimum height.

How it compares
PearlCalc is a Fabric client-side mod for 1.21.1 – 1.21.2 that is not open source and is released under All rights reserved, so it changes nothing on the server. Portal 2 Long Fall Boots is open source under the MIT License, works on client and server, and covers 1.20.6 – 1.21.1, so it targets a different version range than AttackBoots. Kinetic is a Fabric mod for 1.21.4 that is not open source and can run on a client or a server with neither side needing it.
