mystic staves
by idoadmoni01
Mystic Staves adds six elemental staves to Forge for 1.20.1, each with its own effect such as fire balls, freezing, lightning, levitation and TNT launches.
What it does
Six staves are the core of the mod: a Fire Staff, an Ice Staff, a Lightning Staff, a Nature Staff, a TNT Staff and a Levitation Staff. Each one fires or triggers its own effect, from fire balls and lightning strikes to launching TNT and sending mobs into the air. The Ice Staff freezes enemies, and some effects go as far as making a frozen target explode.
The staves are crafted from a Mystic Staves Elemental Core, so the path to them stays within the mod's own recipes. The mod is aimed at survival play, where it adds ranged and area options without a spell menu or a grinding system. A player picks up a staff and uses it directly, which keeps the magic simple to learn.
The mod is client and server, so both the server and every player must run it. It is published for Forge and for the single game version 1.20.1, and it is marked as lightweight, so it can sit in a modpack alongside other content. The code is All rights reserved, which means it is not open source.
