Dungeons Weapons
by Springaling
Dungeons Weapons, by Springaling, adds fourteen weapons inspired by Minecraft Dungeons, with unique variants that carry special attributes.
What it does
Weapons in the mod include the Reinforced Iron Sword, Reinforced Iron Pickaxe, Great Hammer and Double Axe, along with Anchor, which applies slowness on hit. Each weapon plays differently from the others: sickles and gauntlets attack quickly, while the Great Hammer and Anchor hit slowly but deal heavy damage.
Unique weapons are obtained by upgrading at a smithing table with Illager runes, a mechanic inspired by Minecraft 1.20. Illager rune upgrades are crafted from blank runes, which are found in Pillager Outposts. The mod also works with armor trims.
When struck, the Piggy Bank mob runs from the player and drops food, arrows, TNT, emeralds and blank runes. The mod is server-side only and runs on Forge and NeoForge across eight game versions, 1.19.4 – 1.21.8. The code is under the MIT License, and the mod is not open source.
