Daggers And Deception
Daggers And Deception lets players coat blades and throw-ready weapons with poisons, brew drinks, and distill wine or beer into new potions.
What it does
The mod targets players who prefer a direct approach to combat. It adds a Heavy Rapier and other new weapons, and each weapon can be treated with one of several poisons. A poisoned weapon can be applied with three different doses, and a special attack is triggered by a right click. Poisons are made through longer crafting recipes built from hematite and amethyst, so they are not handed out early in a run.
Instead of splashing enemies with a potion, the mod lets players slip a small dose into a drink that a guest or enemy then consumes. Fun Juice and other brews can be made by distilling wine or beer, and drinking them can cause nausea with a 30% chance, plus a new inebriation effect. The mod also adds a relaxed side for parties, where players recline with friends.
The mod requires Curios API, Geckolib, Kleiders Custom Renderer API and playerAnimator. It runs on the client and the server, so both sides need the mod. Files are published for NeoForge only, for 1.20.4, with 1.0.0 as the latest file. The mod is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later and is not open source.
