Retcon
by WrenIsDumb
Retcon adds two melee weapon types, sickles and cleavers, to Fabric games running Minecraft 1.20.1.
What it does
Sickles and cleavers are the two weapon types added. Sickles swing faster than swords but deal 2 less attack damage than swords of the same tier. Cleavers swing slower than sickles but deal 1 more damage than swords of the same tier, so each weapon trades speed for damage differently. Fabric API must be installed alongside Retcon. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. Only 1.20.1 is covered, with 1.0.0 as the latest Fabric file, released 2025-03-24 under the MIT License. The code is not open source.
