Forge Of The Ancients
by Ndefix_
Forge Of The Ancients adds a set of melee weapons for Forge and NeoForge, each with a special ability triggered by right-click or by hitting an enemy.
What it does
The mod adds a selection of visually striking weapons, forged from the depths and the forgotten realms, that can be wielded in ordinary combat. Each weapon carries a unique ability, so a sword is chosen for what it does as well as how it hits. Examples in the catalog include a Heavenly Sword that negates fall damage while held, grants extra hearts and slows falling when right-clicked, and a Bleeding Katana that has a 25% chance to heal its wielder on a hit.
Other blades follow the same pattern. A Toxic Cutlass emits a poisonous explosion on right-click that poisons nearby enemies, an Ice Blade can freeze enemies it hits, a Sculk Blade unleashes dark power, a Hell Sword sets enemies on fire, a Storm Rapier calls down lightning, and a Dark Sword teleports its user and inflicts wither. The mod runs on client and server, so both sides need it, and it is published for Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1 only, under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. The code is not open source. The Forge file is 0.0.7, dated 2024-11-17, and the NeoForge file is 0.0.6, dated 2024-11-11, both on the beta channel.
