Mineshield-Axe

by PelTuber

Mineshield-Axe adds custom axes to Minecraft Java Edition, each with a combat effect that only applies when the opponent also has the mod installed.

FabricClient-side onlyMIT License1.21.1 – 1.21.8

What it does

Crafting a Mineshield axe starts with an ordinary golden axe placed on an anvil, where the player renames it with a Russian (Cyrillic) name. The renamed axe then changes its model at once and takes on the function tied to that name, which turns the item into one of the mod's special weapons. Pressing the right mouse button with an axe ignites a 5x5 area around the user with blue soul fire particles.

Each weapon carries a debuff that strikes a victim when the axe lands a hit. The victim's screen can go dark while nearby entities and players seem to vanish for ten seconds, the victim can be stunned and unable to move for a short time, their movement controls can be inverted so that forward walks backward, or a lightning bolt can strike the target. The lightning effect is described as a server disconnect, so use it with care on multiplayer servers. The mod is client-side only, and the mod's full effects appear only when both combatants run it.

The mod works on vanilla servers without extra plugins because it passes its actions between players through hidden chat messages sent automatically in the background. Files are published for Fabric, covering game versions 1.21.1 and 1.21.8, and the mod is released under the MIT License but is not open source.

Key features

  1. Renamed golden axes

    A golden axe renamed on an anvil with a Russian name transforms into a Mineshield axe with its own model and function.

  2. Soul fire area attack

    A right-click press sets a 5x5 area of blue soul fire particles around the user.

  3. Vanish and blindness

    A hit darkens the victim's screen and hides nearby entities and players for ten seconds.

  4. Stun and control inversion

    A hit stops the victim's movement for a set duration, or inverts their controls so forward moves backward.
