Better Weapons
by RusmayXD
Better Weapons adds a set of magic weapons and artifacts that players find in special structures or craft from materials they gather.
What it does
The mod places 10 structures into newly generated worlds, nine of them in the normal world and one in the land of the Ender. A chest inside each structure holds a unique artifact or weapon, and some structures are built to be safe to enter. One structure takes the form of a floating cloud made of cloud blocks, and breaking its supporting air blocks can cause it to fall to the ground.
The weapons fall into two groups. Ordinary weapons are crafted from common materials, such as the Khopesh, a stronger version of the iron sword that uses two iron swords and one ingot in its recipe. Magical weapons cannot be crafted and can only be found in the special structures. Some of them become available after certain achievements. Better Weapons runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. Files are published for Forge and target 1.16.5 only, with 2.12.1 as the latest file from 2023-09-11.
