Elemental Abilities

by TheDuckInBlue

Elemental Abilities gives each player a set of elements, each with three custom abilities, and a mana pool that pays for them.

What it does

The mod adds six elements: Fire, Water, Earth, Wind, Light and Shadow. Each element comes with three abilities. Ability 1 of Fire, Flame Burst, releases a burst that sets nearby targets alight. Ability 2, Eruption, makes molten lava rain from the sky onto exposed entities. Ability 3, Volcanic Cannon, charges briefly, then fires a large fireball in the direction the player faces. Water Beam fires an instant beam that explodes on impact, while Bubble Shield grants resistance 3 while active. Crushing Wave sends a huge wave forward for heavy damage. Earth Disc launches a disc that explodes after a few seconds, and Earth Quake raises pillars out of the ground that launch entities they strike.

Players receive one of the four base elements on first join. Light and Shadow are rarer, and the Elemental Swapper item is the sole route to them as well as the only way to reroll an element. Each element has a level tracked by the Elemental Essence item: a consumed essence raises the level by one, and each level grants one ability, up to three. A player gets one more Elemental Essence drop on death. A custom item selects which abilities are active, and a further item restores 50 mana when consumed. Abilities draw on a mana pool, which a held item doubles in recovery rate, and custom armor raises maximum mana by 25 per piece, equivalent to netherite armor.

Key features

  1. Six elements

    Fire, Water, Earth, Wind, Light and Shadow each have three unique abilities, chosen through leveling.

  2. Elemental leveling

    Each consumed Elemental Essence raises an element's level by one, and each level grants an ability, up to three.

  3. Mana and recovery

    Abilities use a mana pool that a consumable restores by 50, and a held item doubles the recovery rate.

  4. Custom armor

    Armor pieces raise maximum mana by 25 each, with a set matching netherite armor in total.
