Nibbles' Deep Dark
by Nibbl-z
Nibbles' Deep Dark adds Warden-themed weapons, a Warden Heart drop, and Sculk Dust Arrows for Fabric on 1.21.1.
What it does
Killing the Warden drops a Warden Heart. The heart can be combined with a Echo Shard at a smithing table to upgrade a netherite sword, axe, bow or crossbow to its Echo tier. Echo swords and axes hit harder than the netherite versions they replace, and each hit can knock the target back and apply darkness.
A shot from an Echo bow or Echo crossbow releases the Warden's sonic boom, which passes through a line of mobs and inflicts heavy damage on every one it touches.
Nibbles' Deep Dark is published for Fabric only, on 1.21.1 alone, as version 1.0.0 released on 2024-12-18. Both client and server need the mod, and the code is open source under the CC0 1.0 Universal license. Source code is available.
