Tense Enchantment
by lullaby
Tense Enchantment, a server-side Magic mod, adds a bow enchantment whose damage grows the longer a bow is drawn.
What it does
The enchantment raises arrow damage according to how long the bow has been drawn, and it tops out at level 3. It can be obtained from enchanting tables, loot chests and trading with villagers. Builds cover 1.21 – 26.3 on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with a data pack option for servers. Only the server needs the mod, so players join without installing it, and the code is licensed under the GNU Affero General Public License v3.0 or later.
Key features
Draw-based damage
Arrow damage scales with the time a bow is held drawn, so a fully drawn shot hits harder than a quick one.
Three enchantment levels
The enchantment has a maximum level of 3, which sets how strongly the draw time adds damage.
Multiple sources
The enchantment can appear in enchanting tables and loot chests, and villagers can sell it in trades.
