Relic Fusion: Archaelogy Expansion
by holy_buckets
Relic Fusion: Archaelogy Expansion adds Dig Sites, new Relics and fusable weapons and tools, with more than 500 combinations, in the Oasis and Catacombs areas.
What it does
The mod adds Dig Sites where players can discover Relics. Certain crystals and bones are found in the new Oasis and Catacombs structures, which are more common than in vanilla structures. Once a Totem of Ancient Power has been discovered, the player can fuse a Relic with a tool or weapon through a right click, and the result grants unique bonuses and abilities. Holding a bone crystal in the off hand while a tool is in the main hand is part of the fusion process.
Combinations such as a Toxic Crystal on a Golden Pickaxe or a Demonic Crystal on a Netherite Spear total over 500 different results. Weapon textures for fused items are generated dynamically with a Python script to give the impression of bone and crystal. A fused item may also grant a potion effect for a short time. The mod requires HB's Foundation and is published for Fabric and NeoForge. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. The code is under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only and is open source.
