Elemental Reaction
by wither_123
Elemental Reaction brings Genshin Impact style elemental reactions into Minecraft, letting elements interact on hit and in combat with sword, bow and armor effects.
What it does
Elemental Reaction borrows its core mechanic from Genshin Impact: attacks that carry different elements can trigger a reaction when they meet, adding effects beyond plain damage. Some items from that game are also included, and a level system gives the player a progression path for using them.
Weapons and armor can be enhanced, and a sword can receive the Elemental Infusion enchantment to take on an element, with an Elemental Sword that can be equipped to pull vision toward it. Bows can use elements too. Monsters spawned farther from the spawn point are stronger, and mobs can drop equipment that the player strengthens over time. Ascension materials for equipment can be checked in the item viewer, and only a few artifact sets are included.
The mod is published for Forge and NeoForge, for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, and runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.

How it compares
Elemental Swords covers Forge and NeoForge with files for 1.20.1 – 1.21.8, and it is open source under no license other than All rights reserved. Genshin Nature: Revived also runs on Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1 – 1.21.1, with the same client and server environment and an All rights reserved license, so it matches this mod's version range more closely.
