Super bow
Super bow is a Fabric and NeoForge weapon mod for Minecraft 1.21.1 – 26.2 that adds a bow firing explosive arrows.
What it does
Holding right-click on the bow fires a continuous stream of high-speed explosive arrows, and the rate of fire is limited only by how long the button is held. No drawing or aiming step is needed, which replaces the vanilla charge mechanic.
A single arrow that strikes a block detonates on impact with a large explosion. The weapon is built for clearing groups of mobs and mining resources quickly, and its crafting recipe is demanding. Fabric API must be installed alongside it on Fabric. Installation covers the server and each player's game. Files are published for Fabric and NeoForge across three versions, 1.21.1, 26.1.2 and 26.2, and the code is under All rights reserved, so the mod is not open source.
Key features
Explosive arrow barrage
Holding right-click keeps the bow firing high-speed explosive arrows until the button is released.
Impact explosions
A single arrow that hits a block produces a massive explosion immediately on impact.
No drawing or aiming
The bow skips the vanilla draw and aim steps, so firing depends only on holding the button.
Demanding recipe
The Super Bow has a difficult crafting recipe, which makes it a late-game item rather than an early one.
