Sniper's Moon
Sniper's Moon raises arrow damage on certain nights, so bows and crossbows hit harder during its event and its stronger variant.
What it does
Sniper's Moon changes how arrows deal damage during the moon events it adds. On an ordinary moon arrows gain extra damage, and during the rarer Super Sniper's Moon the bonus grows much larger. The increase applies to arrows shot by players and by mobs alike, including skeletons and pillagers, and the event also makes more skeletons spawn in the world. Forge is the only loader with files, for 1.20.1 only. Both the server and every player need the mod, and it requires Enhanced Celestials and Projectile Damage Attribute to run. The author credits Corgi Taco for Enhanced Celestials, which the mod builds on.
Key features
Moon-based arrow damage
Arrows gain extra damage while the moon is in its boosted phase, applying to every arrow that is fired.
Super Sniper's Moon event
A rare variant of the moon event raises arrow damage much further than the regular boost.
More skeletons
During the event, the world spawns a larger number of skeletons, which also shoot the boosted arrows.
