Netherite Torch Bow
by Jane_1722
Netherite Torch Bow is a Forge weapon mod that upgrades the Torch Bow to netherite, with a torch-bundle ammunition type that fires a spread of arrows.
What it does
The mod adds a netherite upgrade of the Torch Bow. The netherite version has higher durability, twice the projectile speed, better accuracy and more damage than the base bow. Firing Torch Bundle ammunition from it spreads the shots horizontally in a 3x3 grid, similar to a crossbow enchanted with Multishot, which makes hits more likely against a target.
Netherite Torch Bow requires TorchBowMod, which provides the base Torch Bow it upgrades. The mod is published for Forge only, for 1.20.1, and runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. The code is released under the MIT License, but the project is not open source.
Key features
Netherite upgrade
The Torch Bow gains a netherite version with higher durability and stronger stats.
Faster, more accurate shots
The netherite bow doubles projectile speed and improves accuracy, so arrows travel farther and hit more reliably.
Torch Bundle spread
Torch Bundle ammunition fires a horizontal 3x3 spread of arrows, similar to a Multishot crossbow.
Known pickup bug
Extra arrows from a Torch Bundle shot cannot be picked up automatically; players pick them up by right-clicking while holding the Netherite Torch Bow.

How it compares
Reinforced Netherite is a Forge option for 1.20.1 that runs on client and server, but it is not open source and is released under All rights reserved. Epic Fight Bow tweak is also Forge for 1.20.1, but it is client-side only and open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only. Torch Mod is client-side only for Forge 1.20.1 and is released under All rights reserved, so it affects only the player's own client.
