Wither Hoe Mod

The Wither Hoe is a new weapon. Its melee attack deals 25 points of damage, shown as 12.5 hearts, and inflicts Wither at a level that depends on the game difficulty. The weapon also fires blue wither skulls, which are stronger than vanilla ones: each deals 15 points of damage on a direct hit and inflicts Wither the same way, and the targeted entity is affected for 10 seconds. The mod describes the skulls as reaching ten times the damage of the regular hoe in creative mode, where a charged version exists.

The weapon gives its holder resistance effects and lets them fly and launch themselves. Holding the hoe in the inventory grants complete immunity to the Wither effect, and the config file controls how that and the other effects behave. Older versions of the mod also gave a saturation effect, which can be enabled in the config. Behavior in earlier releases differs from the current one in these effects.

The hoe can break blocks that are normally indestructible, including bedrock, command blocks and barrier blocks. Its crafting recipe cannot be obtained in vanilla survival, so players reach it through other means. The mod needs Cloth Config API, and the Fabric build also depends on that library. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. Files cover 1.20, 1.20.1 and 1.20.2, with 1.4.1 as the latest Fabric file for 1.20.2 and the latest Forge file for 1.20.1.
