Auric Weapons

by auric

Auric Weapons, a Fabric mod for Minecraft 1.21.8, adds three melee weapon types to the game: daggers, daxes and scythes.

FabricClient and serverGNU General Public License v3.0 onlyOpen source1.21.8

What it does

Each weapon type comes in several material tiers, from wood up to netherite. Daggers and scythes are built for fast attacks, while daxes carry heavier damage, reaching 11.0 attack damage at the top tier and 7.0 at the lower ones. Daxes also strip logs the way vanilla axes do, and they are an effective tool for wood-type blocks.

The weapons accept enchantments that suit their type: sword enchantments on daggers and scythes, and axe enchantments on daxes. The mod needs Fabric API to run. It is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, so the code is open source and can be read or modified under those terms.

Only Fabric is supported, and only for 1.21.8. The server and every player need the mod installed. Credit for the double-axe textures goes to the resource pack the author thanks in the mod text.

Key features

  1. Three weapon types

    Daggers, daxes and scythes are added as separate melee weapons, each with its own attack behaviour.

  2. Material tiers

    Each weapon is available in tiers from wood through netherite, giving a progression of damage and durability.

  3. Fast daggers and scythes

    Daggers and scythes attack quickly, trading a lower per-hit damage for a higher rate of strikes.

  4. Log stripping daxes

    Daxes strip logs like vanilla axes and are an effective tool for mining wood-type blocks.
