Sombrius's Weaponry Redux
by Sombrius
Sombrius's Weaponry Redux is a Forge and NeoForge equipment mod that adds a set of new melee weapons, from the gladius and dagger to the halberd, lance and scythe.
What it does
Each weapon has its own combat role. The gladius and dagger are short and quick, the rapier is narrow and targets gaps in armor, and the mace and warhammer are built to break through heavy protection. Longer weapons such as the halberd, lance and curved blade keep foes at a distance, while the sickle and saber trade reach for speed. The mod also adds a shield that can block incoming attacks from the off hand.
The mod is a remake of Mortius Weaponry, rebuilt with a focus on compatibility and fewer issues than its predecessor. It requires Geckolib, and the Better Combat mod is recommended alongside it for a fuller combat experience. Polishing of the weapon textures is part of the update. The code is under the MIT License and is open source, and the source code and issue tracker are public. Files cover Forge and NeoForge for 1.19.2 – 1.20.6, with 1.16 as the latest file for both loaders.
Key features
Short fast blades
The gladius has quick swing speed, and the dagger deals double damage when a foe is unaware of the attacker.
Armor-piercing rapier
The rapier is a nimble narrow sword with a chance to pierce armor, dealing 45% of its damage through it.
Two-handed polearms
The halberd, lance and scythe have long handles that keep foes at a distance, and the lance deals more damage when the user rides a mount.
Armor-breaking heavy weapons
The warhammer and mace deal more damage against armored foes, and the mace is described as decimating armor.
Off-hand shield
A shield in the off hand can block incoming attacks, and an axe hit disables it while the sword keeps its agility.
