What it does

Crafted weapons join the existing melee options in survival play. The Dagger and Handaxe can be thrown in the same way as the Trident, and both can take the Loyalty enchantment so they return after a throw. A Wooden Rod is crafted at a crafting station from three sticks stacked vertically, and it serves as a component for the Greataxe and the Polearm.

The mod is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, with files for 1.16.5 – 1.21.7 across eleven release versions. Builds exist for 1.16.5, 1.18.1, 1.18.2, 1.19, 1.19.1, 1.19.2, 1.19.3, 1.20.1, 1.21.4, 1.21.6 and 1.21.7. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. The code is under All rights reserved and is not open source.

Key features

  1. Longsword and greatsword

    Two sword tiers add heavier melee options to the existing sword category.

  2. Battleaxe and greataxe

    Axe weapons include a battleaxe and a greataxe, the latter built with a Wooden Rod.

  3. Throwable daggers and handaxes

    Daggers and handaxes can be hurled and then retrieved, and enchanting them with Loyalty brings them back after each throw.

  4. Wooden Rod crafting

    The Wooden Rod is crafted at a crafting station and supplies the Greataxe and Polearm recipes.
