Paladin Spells - Iron's Spells Addon

by kaufko

Paladin Spells extends the tanking side of Iron's Spells 'n Spellbooks with armor-driven and holy-power spells, so defensive builds have their own school.

What it does

Its spells scale with holy spell power, and the tank spells also scale with armor, so a player who builds defense gets more out of them. Bulwark raises armor based on current armor spell power, Taunt forces enemies inside the spell's radius to target the caster, and Sworn Protector redirects a percentage of damage taken by nearby players onto the caster.

Bedrock Skin immobilizes the caster in exchange for tank buffs to armor, maximum health and resistance, and Ram dashes through enemies over a short range with its effectiveness scaling with armor. Bedrock Skin and Ram are still marked as work in progress by the author. The addon needs Iron's Spells 'n Spellbooks, Iron's Lib, Caelus API, Curios API, Geckolib and playerAnimator, and it is published for Forge and NeoForge for 1.20 – 1.21.1. The environment is client and server, and the code is under the Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 4.0 license, so the mod is not open source.
