Donidin's Advanced Combat
by Donidin
With Donidin's Advanced Combat installed, every hit on a hostile mob builds a combo that raises damage, speed and reach as it grows.
What it does
The mod turns melee and ranged fights into a combo system. Hitting hostile mobs builds a combo, while taking damage removes part of it, so players have to keep attacks clean to keep the count rising. Combo stages are announced with their own sound, and the current rank is shown while the combo lasts. A combo that expires grants some experience, so a run that ends badly still pays something.
Reaching the top stage, called Berserk, adds bonus damage, damage resistance, extra movement speed and a flame aura, with a red pulse on the screen to mark the state. The mod is NeoForge only, published for 1.21.1, and it runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. The source code is public, and the license is MIT, which makes the mod open source.
Key features
Combo building
Hostile mob hits raise the combo, and getting hit removes part of it, with progressively more dangerous stages.
Stage bonuses
Combo levels increase reach, draw speed, throw speed and melee damage, reaching up to 30 times the base value at the top.
Weapon abilities
Supported weapons carry two active abilities bound to R and G, which consume combo and trigger cooldowns, and some weapons gain passive bonuses at set combo counts.
Configurable values
Most values of the combo system and the abilities can be changed in the configuration.

Use cases

Who it’s for: Players who want melee and ranged combat to reward sustained aggression, and server owners who want the same combat rules for every player.

What the author says
Donidin's Advanced Combat is a combat overhaul focused on combos, weapon abilities, and generally beating the... stuff out of things. The idea is pretty simple: hit enemies, don't get hit, keep your combo going, and become progressively more dangerous. Eventually, you'll reach BERSERK.
