Spell Powered Weapons
by KevzCz
Spell Powered Weapons lets weapons found or crafted roll an elemental damage instance, with conversion values set through datapacks.
What it does
A portion of a weapon's damage can be converted into spell damage, using a percentage defined in the data files. Spell damage scales with the spell power value. Conversion values can be overridden or added with a datapack, and the mix of rolls is applied when weapons are found or crafted.
The conversion works in three modes: split, addition and full elemental. In split mode the spell damage is dealt alongside the physical hit; in addition mode a flat amount is added to each hit; in full elemental mode the weapon's damage is converted entirely. Spell damage caused by these weapons is shown with the key's icons in the output, and sound effects and particles are included. Most of the behavior can be configured. The mod is open source under the MIT License and installs on client and server, so both sides need it. Files are published for Fabric and NeoForge, for the single version 1.21.1.
