HephaestusPlus
by KonSola5
HephaestusPlus is a Fabric addon for Hephaestus that adds new melee and harvest tools, materials and modifiers, and it works alongside several other mods.
What it does
Hephaestus is required, and HephaestusPlus extends it with tools, materials and modifiers. Botania, Fabricae Ex Nihilo and Mythic Metals are optional: when one of them is missing, the matching content is disabled and the rest of the mod keeps working, so no single companion has to be present. The mod targets Fabric for 1.20.1 only, and the environment is client and server, so both the server and every player need it.
Its content covers new melee and harvest tools with their own traits, materials from Mythic Metals and Botania, and a bowstring-based tool variant. Modifiers include Sharp, which adds damage per reused part, and Hydraulic, which removes the underwater mining penalty and speeds up mining in water. Mythic Metals itself adds strong materials, and this addon adjusts some of them. The project is released under the MIT License and is open source, and its source code and issue tracker are public. The first version was published on 2023-11-25 and the latest file on 2024-01-23.
Key features
Modifiable crook and hammer
Hephaestus tools can take crook and hammer parts, and a crooking smashing ability lets them work like the Fabricae Ex Nihilo crook and hammer.
Sharp and Hydraulic modifiers
Sharp adds 0.75 damage per reused part, and Hydraulic removes the underwater mining penalty and increases underwater mining speed.
Bang Bang blasting
The Legendary Banglum Bang Bang modifier turns a tool into a blaster that clears tunnels and costs 2 durability per broken block.
Carmot Shield synergy
A Carmot tool held alongside a Carmot Shield shortens the shield's maximum cooldown and makes it regenerate faster.
Inspiration trait
An Inspiration trait with no obtainable source is included as part of the modifier set.
