TNT Arrow

by quillphen

TNT Arrow lets players craft arrows that explode on impact, using a lightweight data pack for Minecraft.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltServer required, client optionalCreative Commons Attribution 4.01.17 – 1.21.10

What it does

Each arrow is made from one Arrow and one TNT, and it detonates where it lands, so grounded targets and nearby blocks are affected by the blast. The data pack is small and works on mobs, mining and other ranged combat in survival and adventure play.

Only the server needs the mod to run its arrows, and a player may leave it out. The mod is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and as a data pack, with files for 1.17 – 1.21.10. It is released under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license and is not open source.

Key features

  1. Explosive arrows

    Arrows explode when they strike a block, a mob or the ground, adding a blast effect to ranged combat.

  2. Simple crafting

    An explosive arrow is made from one Arrow and one TNT, so no new materials are needed.

  3. Mining and mob use

    The blast can break blocks and damage mobs in its range, which helps with clearing rock or groups of enemies.

Questions

Does TNT Arrow need to be installed on the client?

No. Players can join a server running it without installing the mod, though they gain the arrows only when they have it installed.
