βοΈ BattleWorks 31 over-engineered ways to make problems go away.
Every weapon in BattleWorks has a real ability β not just bigger numbers. Slam from the sky, blink through walls, swap places with a skeleton, or stand still in deepslate armor and let the ground fight back. All cooldowns show on a clean custom HUD above your hotbar.
π‘οΈ Weapons Ability Grappling Hook Fire a hook with a real rope β latch blocks to zip to them (fall-safe), or yank mobs to you
Meteor Hammer Right-click in midair to crash down β damage & radius scale with fall height. No terrain damage
Shard Sword Blink up to 15 blocks to where you're looking. 30s cooldown, fizzles safely if blocked
Stormcaller Call a real lightning bolt on whatever you're aiming at, up to 40 blocks
Frostreaver Scythe Frost nova: freezes and heavily slows everything around you
Boomeraxe Throw it β it cleaves everything in its path and returns to your hand through walls
Graviton Staff Levitates nearby enemies, then 3 homing missiles chase each one (armor can't help them)
Kunai Stackable throwing knives, two per second
Force Gauntlet Shockwave punch β everything in front of you goes flying
Shadow Dagger Strike from behind for an armor-piercing backstab crit
Trickster's Scepter Swap places with any mob or player within 16 blocks
Vindicator's Cloak Go full Johnny: Strength II + Speed for 8 seconds
π‘οΈ Three armor sets, three identities
Reinforced Steel β tank: tougher than netherite, huge durabilityβ¦ β5% speed per piece. Skyweave β runner: +4% speed per piece, and the full set makes fall damage a myth. Thornstone β spite: zero passive perks, but whoever hits you gets impaled by stone fangs from below.
π Off-hand Shards Hold a shard in your off-hand and two powers appear on your HUD (default keys G / H). The second power only unlocks while its paired weapon is in your main hand:
Ember Shard + Meteor Hammer β fire nova / rocket yourself skyward (then slam) Warp Shard + Shard Sword β short blink / reset the sword's cooldown Storm Shard + Stormcaller β 24-block radar pulse / triple lightning strike Frost Shard + Frostreaver β icy guard / freeze one target solid at range
π§° Utility Prospector's Pickaxe (vein-mines whole ore veins, Fortune-friendly) Β· Recall Charm (set an anchor, warp home) Β· Magnet Charm (drops & XP fly to you).
π Details Requires Fabric API Β· Minecraft 1.21.1 Β· works in singleplayer and on servers (install both sides) Everything is craftable in survival with sensible recipes (tooltips explain every ability in-game)
Custom HUD: cooldown bar with live countdown above the hotbar + shard power slots Shard power keys are rebindable under Options β Controls β Weapons+
