Spear SMP
by landanbott59
Spear SMP adds eight custom spears that gain power as their owner earns Spear XP by defeating other players.
What it does
Spear SMP is a Forge magic and equipment mod for 1.19.2, published under a custom license that is not open source. It adds a collection of eight specially crafted spears, each with three tiers of abilities. Killing players earns Spear XP, and each accumulated amount raises the spear's level, bringing the next tier of power into reach. A spear starts at the most basic tier, where its ability is the weakest, and the second tier improves that ability while still staying fairly modest.
Reaching the maximum Spear XP opens the third and final tier, where the spear is described as transforming its wielder into something close to a demigod, with abilities strong enough to defeat other players in combat with little effort. The mod is built for survival multiplayer servers, where progression is tied to player-versus-player kills. Either side can run it, and neither needs it, so it can be installed on a client, a server or both. Files exist only for Forge, with version 1.0.0 for 1.19.2 as the latest file, published on 2023-11-05 after a first release on 2023-10-26.
