Snowballs in Minecraft fall into the list of projectiles and can be thrown by players. But the ability for snowballs to be thrown does not make it very useful. The damage dealt by them is very low, which makes them unsuitable in combat situations. Useful Snowball Mod is here to change that. This mod makes it so that snowballs, upon hitting a mob, will inflict a tiny slowness effect on them. This makes snowballs useful in situations where you are being chased by a horde of mobs.
Features:
- Makes snowballs useful in combat situations.
- Snowballs will inflict a small slowness effect upon hitting mobs.
- Useful when a horde of mobs are chasing you.
