More Swords+
by ANDWIN_GAMER
More Swords+ is a Forge library mod that adds three themed swords, each with its own effects, to the Minecraft Java Edition game.
What it does
The three swords are crafted from materials tied to a particular biome: a blade forged from lava-infused materials for hostile Nether settings, a cold-forged blade that draws on frozen energy, and a sword made with an enchanted apple core intended for survival efficiency. The swords grant Fire Resistance or Water Breathing while held, so the Nether and ocean areas are easier to explore without skipping the challenges they present.
Each sword is meant to slot into the vanilla progression instead of replacing it. The author describes the set as small and focused, with no extra content beyond the swords. Long mining sessions, early-game survival and food management are the situations the swords are designed around, and the apple-core blade reduces how often a player has to eat without breaking the game balance. The mod is a client-side only install, so servers do not need it and players join without changes.
