Attribute Tooltip Fix Downward
by Shao_Zhige
Attribute Tooltip Fix Downward is a Forge utility that corrects how attribute values are shown in item tooltips for Minecraft 1.16.5.
What it does
The mod is a Forge 1.16.5 build of the original fix by Shao_Zhige. It changes the tooltip lines that report attack damage and attack speed on weapons and tools, so the displayed numbers line up with the values the game actually applies. Players see the figure a weapon deals rather than a figure that omits or misplaces the modifier.
Both sides run the mod: client and server need it, so a server and every player connected to it must install the same build. Files cover 1.16.1, 1.16.2, 1.16.3, 1.16.4 and 1.16.5, and the latest Forge file, 2.0 for 1.16.5, was published on 2026-05-31. The code is released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 or later and is open source, with public source code and an issue tracker.
