Wyrmsteel
Wyrmsteel is a Fabric equipment mod that adds a set of new weapons, each with its own enchantments, along with a custom weapon slot.
What it does
The mod adds new weapons to the game, including simple weapons such as scythes, sickles, blowguns and a headhunter weapon. Each weapon carries effects of its own: a scythe can decay the target, a sickle slices and wounds, a blowgun punctures and breaches, and a headhunter is built for marksman shots. Several weapons apply effects to targets they hit, so combat choices matter more than raw damage.
Crafting starts with netherite, which is needed to make the Wyrmsteel Ingots used for the weapons. A weapon core requires one Nether Star per core. A custom weapon slot lets players wear items on the body, including on the waist. The mod also includes a totem and an infinite ender pearl, and a coolness factor synchronization option. The mod is client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Fabric only, for 1.21.1, with 1.7.3 as the latest beta file.
The author describes Wyrmsteel as still in beta, because some issues can cause item loss and graphical glitches. Further weapons and content are planned, and the mod is released under a custom license that is not open source. Public source code is available.
