Spartan Weaponry: Aether
by KreloX
Spartan Weaponry: Aether adds weapon traits and drops tied to the Aether dimension, and it extends the Spartan Weaponry weapon set on Forge and NeoForge.
What it does
Weapons from the Spartan Weaponry: Aether addon gain traits drawn from Aether content. Mobs killed with these weapons drop roughly twice as many items, and an attack has a 4% chance to produce an Ambrosium Shard. Strikes from certain weapons fling foes into the air, and a weapon gains strength the more it is used.
The addon depends on Spartan Weaponry, the Spartan Weaponry Addon Toolkit and The Aether, all three required. Deep Aether is optional and adds its own content when present. Better Combat is an optional dependency as well. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge for 1.20.1, with 1.20.1-1.1.1 as the latest build, and the mod is open source under the MIT License.
Key features
Double drops from mobs
Mobs killed with these weapons drop about twice as many items as usual.
Ambrosium Shard chance
Each attack has a 4% chance to drop an Ambrosium Shard, a material from the Aether.
Weapon strength growth
A weapon gains strength as it is used, so frequently used weapons hit harder over time.
Airborne knockback
Some weapon strikes fling foes into the air, opening room for follow-up attacks.
New Aether weapon traits
New traits based on Aether addons are added to the Spartan Weaponry weapon set.

Who it’s for: Players who already use Spartan Weaponry and The Aether, and server owners who run both together, will find this addon most relevant.
How it compares

Spartan Cestus is a Forge mod for 1.20.1 under the MIT License, focused on hand-to-hand gear rather than the Aether. Epic Fight x Spartan Weaponry runs on both Fabric and Forge for 1.20.1 and is server required with optional client support, under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license.
