Cataclysmic Combat
by MindFaer
Cataclysmic Combat gives the weapons of L_Ender's Cataclysm the attack moves of Better Combat, so players can use them in the same way as other melee weapons.
What it does
Cataclysmic Combat is a Forge compatibility layer. It changes how the gauntlets of guard and bulwark, the Incinerator, and the Void and Infernal forges behave in combat. The two gauntlets, guard and bulwark, take on fist-style attacks and may be wielded one in each hand. The Incinerator uses claymore-type moves and needs two hands, and the two forges use hammer-type moves, also with two hands. Better Combat and L_Ender's Cataclysm are both required. Installation covers the server and each player's game. Files cover 1.19.2 – 1.20.6 and are released under All rights reserved, with the latest file 1.4 for 1.20.6.
