Accessories

Lightweight Accessory System for Minecraft Servers

Accessories is a lightweight accessory slot system for Minecraft servers.

It adds a separate Accessories GUI, allowing players to equip custom accessories without interfering with vanilla armor or normal equipment logic.

Accessories can be used to provide:

• extra attributes or trait-style effects
• support for vanilla Minecraft attributes
• custom shield mechanics
• lore-based tags
• external skill integrations such as MythicMobs
• compatibility hooks for plugins like AuraSkills

This makes it suitable as a modular accessory framework rather than a system tied to a single plugin.

MythicMobs Support

Accessories supports triggering MythicMobs skills through equipped accessories.

You can bind MythicMobs skills to accessory items and have them trigger under different conditions, such as:

• onAttack — when the player deals damage
• onDamaged — when the player takes damage
• onInteract — when the player interacts
• onKill — when the player kills an entity
• onShoot — when the player fires a projectile
• onTimer — repeated trigger based on a configured interval

Each skill entry can also define:

• the target type (self or targeted)
• timer period for repeated effects
• optional condition fields for future expansion

This allows accessories to work as custom skill carriers, making them easy to integrate into advanced combat or RPG systems.

Example

signature: 1

items:
  example_ring:
    name: "&bExample Ring"
    skills:
      - skill: ExampleAttackSkill
        trigger: onAttack
        target: targeted

      - skill: ExampleTimerSkill
        trigger: onTimer
        period: 20
        target: self
        conditions: {}

Vanilla Attribute Support

Accessories can also apply vanilla Minecraft attributes through equipped items.

This makes it possible to build accessories around native attribute systems, such as:

• max health
• armor
• armor toughness
• attack damage
• attack speed
• movement speed
• knockback resistance
• luck

This is useful if you want your accessory system to stay close to vanilla mechanics while still benefiting from a separate accessory GUI.

Absorb System (Shield Mechanic)

Accessories introduces custom Absorb and MagicAbsorb shield mechanics.

How Absorb Works

This applies to both Absorb and MagicAbsorb:

• All incoming damage, except fall damage, is absorbed by the shield first.
• When the shield is depleted, damage is applied to the player's health as normal.
• If the player takes no damage for 12 seconds, the shield starts regenerating.
• Regeneration rate: 10% of max absorb per second.
• All values can be customized in the config file.

PlaceholderAPI Support

You can display shield status using PlaceholderAPI:

• %absorb_current_shield%
• %absorb_max_shield%
• %magicabsorb_current_shield%
• %magicabsorb_max_shield%

Useful for:

• action bars
• scoreboards
• HUD displays

Accessories GUI

The plugin includes a fully customizable GUI system:

• custom GUI title
• adjustable GUI size
• locked frame slots
• slot-based item restrictions using lore keywords
• only items that match slot rules can be equipped

This gives you precise control over what types of accessories players can use.

Available Effects

Accessories can be used for effects such as:

• Defence Reduces incoming magic damage

• HealRegeneration Increases health regeneration

• HealRegenerationDecrease Reduces regeneration, useful for cursed items

• Absorb Grants and regenerates a physical damage shield

• MagicAbsorb Grants and regenerates a magic damage shield

• Vanilla Attributes Supports native Minecraft attributes such as health, armor, damage, and movement speed

Lore Tag System

Accessories supports a lore-based tag system.

How It Works

If an accessory item contains lore in the following format:

[xxxx]

the player will automatically receive the corresponding tag:

xxxx

Use Cases

• conditional skills or effects
• integration with other plugins or datapacks
• custom mechanics triggered by player tags
• advanced accessory-based logic

This system allows accessories to interact with external systems without hard dependencies.
