Improved Multishot

by Seikasu

Improved Multishot raises the Multishot enchantment on crossbows to three levels, so a single shot can fire four or five arrows.

What it does

Level 1 keeps the vanilla Multishot behavior. Level 2 fires four arrows and Level 3 fires five, and higher levels adjust the number of arrows and their spread automatically. The mod also addresses a vanilla issue where several arrows from one volley strike the same target: each arrow can deal damage to a single entity without being blocked by invulnerability frames.

The enchantment can be applied with an anvil, with enchanted books, or with the enchant command. Extended levels are on by default, and a configuration file lets server owners or players turn them off to keep the original balance. The mod works with most mods that extend the vanilla crossbow, but mods that fully replace the crossbow projectile logic may conflict with it. It is free to use in modpacks, provided a link back to the mod page is included.

Improved Multishot is published for Forge and NeoForge across six release versions, 1.20.1 – 1.21.1, and the environment is client and server. The code is not open source; it is licensed as All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. Three Multishot levels

    The enchantment reaches Level 2 and Level 3, firing four and five arrows from a crossbow.

  2. Single-target arrow hits

    Arrows from one volley can each strike the same entity without being stopped by invulnerability frames.

  3. Configurable extended levels

    Extended levels can be disabled in the configuration file, returning the enchantment to vanilla behavior.

  4. Standard enchanting methods

    Players can add the enchantment at an anvil, from books, or through a command, just as with other vanilla enchantments.

Questions

Does Improved Multishot work on NeoForge?

Yes. Files are published for NeoForge 1.21.1 as a beta release, alongside the Forge files.

Do both the server and players need the mod?

Yes. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too.

Can the extended levels be turned off?

Yes. The configuration file allows extended Multishot levels to be disabled for a more standard balance.
