Overheated
by Neoloxal
Overheated gives iron sword, axe and pickaxe a lava-heated variant with combat and mining effects on NeoForge for 1.21.1.
What it does
Iron tools dipped in lava become overheated versions that carry special effects. The Overheated Iron Sword sets enemies ablaze through a Fire Aspect effect, the Overheated Iron Axe explodes enemies on hit, and the Overheated Iron Pickaxe cooks the blocks it mines automatically, as a furnace would. Overheated tools cool down after a period of use, so the effects are temporary and the player must return them to lava to recharge.
The mod is a NeoForge addition for 1.21.1, with files last updated on 2026-09-01. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. The code is open source under the MIT License, and the source code is public. Overheated depends on no other mod and adds no new dimensions or machines.
