Elysis Hammers
Elysis Hammers adds hammers that break areas of blocks in one swing, plus several hammer tiers and special upgrades.
What it does
Hammers from this mod break configurable areas such as 3x3 or 5x5 in one swing, and war hammers are built for melee combat. Tiers range from gold to end-themed weapons, and the upgrade path lets lower-tier hammers become stronger without spending a full block of the higher material. A smelting hammer can also smelt the blocks it breaks.
The mod is built for singleplayer survival worlds as well as multiplayer servers, and it includes hidden extras and adjustable settings intended to keep progression balanced. It lists compatibility with Better Combat and several ore expansion mods, and it includes compatibility options for other mods that add upgrade paths.
Installation requires the mod to be present on both the client and the server, so players and server owners both need it. It is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, with files covering 1.20 – 26.2 across 17 release versions, released under the MIT License (not open source).
Key features
Area mining hammers
Hammers break configurable areas such as 3x3 or 5x5, clearing several blocks with one swing.
Tiered hammer line
Gold, diamond and netherite hammers differ in mining area, speed and durability, with the end warhammer at the top of the chain.
Warhammers for combat
War hammers offer heavier melee options, and the end warhammer has a chance to stun enemies it hits.
Smelting hammer
The smelther hammer smelts blocks as it mines them, so ore runs need no separate furnace step.
Material upgrade plates
Gold and diamond upgrade plates used at a smithing table let lower-tier hammers and pickaxes move up without a full block of the higher material.
