Battlemages [More Magic Series]
by Carlogamer
With Battlemages, a weapon can carry a spell, and the Fire, Frost and Arcane Battlemage armor sets bring spell-casting gear into melee play.
What it does
Battlemages infuses the body of a weapon with magic, so that a fight can combine sword or axe strikes with spells. The additions depend on several required libraries: AzureLib Armor for the armor models, Spell Engine and Spell Power Attributes for casting and spell stats, Runes, Dragonsteel & Star Alloy [Magical Metallurgy Series] and Elemental Metals [Magical Metallurgy Series] for materials, and Fabric API on Fabric. Better Combat is optional and adjusts weapon mechanics when present.
Three battlemage paths are available through spells: Fire, Frost and Arcane. Each path has its own spell book, created at the Spell Binding Table, and adds two armor sets with matching weapons. The mod also extends trinkets through The Ancient Trinkets Index [More Magic Series] and The Cursed Trinkets Index [More Magic Series], which are optional. Battlemages runs on client and server, and files exist for 1.19.2, 1.20.1, 1.21 and 1.21.1, with 0.0.9-1.21.1 as the latest build for 1.21.1. The code is not open source, and the mod is released under All rights reserved.
Key features
Magical weapon strikes

Two armor sets per path
Every battlemage path adds two armor sets, each with weapons that fit its magic school.
