More Pickaxe Damage
by danjaye
More Pickaxe Damage changes how much damage pickaxes deal and how fast they attack, so a pickaxe can be used in fights.
What it does
Pickaxes that sit unused in the hotbar gain a role in combat through changed damage and attack speed values. Players can use a pick to take advantage during the day or at night, and critical hits against an iron golem are part of the same change. Players who swing and miss a critical hit still get the attempt. Client and server both need the mod, and it is built for Fabric only, with files for 1.21.8 – 1.21.11 under All rights reserved. The mod is not open source.
Pickaxes keep their normal place in the hotbar, but the altered values let them serve as a weapon in fights. The changes affect both daytime and nighttime play, so the pick is useful in more situations than before.
Key features
Stronger pickaxes
Pickaxes deal more damage than in vanilla, so they can serve as a weapon in fights.
Changed attack speed
The attack speed of pickaxes is adjusted alongside their damage values.
Critical hits on iron golems
Critical hits against iron golems are possible with a pickaxe, and missed attempts still count as tries.
