D2 Affix
by 2172388440
D2 Affix brings Diablo II's elite monster affix system to Forge 1.20.1, giving monsters tiered elite types with random affixes, auras and minion spawning.
What it does
Elite types are defined as data templates in data/d2affix/elite_types JSON files and registered with an ID. Each type can carry a tier, a set of affixes and an optional list of applicable tags or entities, so a type spawns only on matching monsters. Types with neither restriction can apply to any eligible mob. Child types extend a parent and inherit its fields, overriding only what they change. Kill flags prevent a type from triggering repeatedly on the same monster.
The mod covers common base tiers, champion and minion types, unique and super unique templates, and a set of undead bosses with fixed equipment. Affix numbers scale with the difficulty tier, and a difficulty can be set manually with the d2affix command. Elite state is saved in the overworld through SavedData, so monsters keep their affixes across sessions. The system needs both the client and the server to run, and it is open source under the MIT License.
Key features
Tiered elite types
Common, champion, minion, unique and super unique tiers each have a template that sets their affixes and spawn rules.
Affix pools
Full prefix and aura pools include amplify damage, soul burn, poison and thorns, along with several holy, resistance and buff auras.
Charged bolt projectile
A custom bolt entity with a small hitbox tracks targets within 64 blocks and updates every tick, and is used by affixed monsters.
Ranged weapon priority
Monsters choose a weapon by material tier, with sword, axe, pickaxe, hoe and shovel weighted in a 10:7:5:2:2 ratio.
