Venomfang Blade
by babuin66754
Venomfang Blade is a Forge sword for 1.20.1 whose successful hits inflict Poison for four seconds, so enemies weaken over time during a fight.
What it does
The blade is a lightweight sword that deals 6 attack damage and has 250 durability. Each successful attack applies Poison for four seconds, letting a player wear down an enemy gradually while the fight continues. The mod supports several poison potions, so the blade can be combined with the potions the player already has.
The sword is crafted as a shapeless recipe from one Iron Sword and the supported poison potions. The mod requires additional mod dependencies, which are listed on its page. Because the mod is installed on both client and server in multiplayer, every player on a server running it needs it too. Files are published for Forge only, for 1.20.1, and the MIT License covers the code, which is not open source.
The mod suits survival play and combat-focused worlds where a steady damage-over-time effect is useful. It adds one item and changes nothing else in the world, so a player can add it to an existing save without reworking progress.
