Redshift Weapons

Redshift Weapons adds a set of weapons and bosses built around air threats. Handheld flak weapons shoot down the gliding and flying mobs it introduces, including some of the Ice variants. Gliders can call down raids, and Operatives, semitransparent mobs armed with Electron Swords, arrive with them. The Automaton is a custom boss that is summoned by placing a redstone block on a smooth stone block, and it usually attacks by spamming arrows, so its arena is worth preparing for in advance. Its drops include Redshift Cores, which are used to craft the mod's tools, along with other Redshift items and materials that the author says can be used to make a large amount of iron.

The mod also overhauls the Ender Dragon and Wither so that they stay challenging despite the weapons Redshift Weapons provides. A sword in the mod can be held to become invisible, pierces armor, and leaves victims' death messages without revealing the attacker. Redshift Weapons requires Forge and is installed on both the client and the server, so every player on a server that runs it needs the mod too. The author notes a playtest before release and recommends JEI for viewing crafting recipes. The mod is not open source and is released under All rights reserved.
