PvPChaos
PvPChaos adds weapons, totems, enchantments, effects and potions aimed at player-versus-player fights on Fabric for 1.21.4.
What it does
The mod introduces new weapons, totems, enchantments, effects and potions, and its stated aim is to make player combat more varied and interactive. A Scythe trades speed for less damage than a vanilla sword, a Buster Sword swings slower but hits harder than an axe, and the Masamune is faster still while dealing less damage than the Scythe. Rotting Soul, a Netherite Template, upgrades diamond tools and weapons into Rotting variants.
Totems are the main new item group. Totem Silence grants 20 extra hearts of health and instantly heals around 16 of them, but the wearer receives the Darkness effect for a minute. Totem Fear makes the wearer nearly invincible and faster and stronger for a period, while Rotting Soul gives a similar protective effect and lets the wearer see in the dark. The catalog text lists crafting recipes in a gallery.
The mod runs on the client and on the server, so both the server and every player need it. Files are published for Fabric only, for 1.21.4 with 1.0.2 as the latest file from 2025-04-01. The first release was 2025-03-05. The code is released under the Creative Commons Zero 1.0 Universal (CC0 1.0) dedication, and the project is not open source. The author notes that development restarted after a pause and that updates arrive as time allows.
