BotaniaCombat
by Partonetrain
With BotaniaCombat, Botania's metals and mana tools gain melee weapons, shields, crossbows and bows that fit into the existing Botania progression on Fabric and Quilt.
What it does
BotaniaCombat adds weapons built from Botania's metals, including daggers, spears, a Slaughtersaw, a battlestaff and a Manasteel Buckler, plus shields such as the Elementium Shield and Terra Tower Shield. Terrasteel weapons fire mana beams whose color is picked at random, and the mod adds Gaia Gifts, rare weapons that a player can only earn after beating Gaia II when specific requirements are met. Botania's pixies, when spawned by a player, receive an extra +2 damage bonus.
The mod requires Botania and Cloth Config API, and it integrates with Better Combat for melee attacks, with Shield Lib for shield behavior and with Ranged Weapon API for ranged damage attributes. Those three are optional but add the matching features when present. Crossbows such as the Livingwood Crossbow and Crystal Crossbow, along with bows that gain pull-time ranged damage attributes, extend the ranged side, and the Mana Blaster deals magic damage through its Damage lens.
BotaniaCombat is released under the MIT License and is open source, with its source code and issue tracker public. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. Files exist for 1.20 and 1.20.1, and the latest Fabric and Quilt builds are 1.20.1-3.0.4 for 1.20.1, published on 2024-09-04.
