Alez's Combat Upgrades
Java mod listed for Minecraft 1.16. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
⬇ Download on CurseForgeThe author built this one for Minecraft 1.16.3–1.16.5 on Forge. On other versions it may install and then do nothing.
This mod is meant to be somewhat of a port of the Advanced Combat Mod to 1.16. It does have most of the textures from the Advanced Combat Mod + some of mine for missing enchantments in a similar style. I was somewhat in a rush so I will change those at some point soon.
I would love to continue and update this but I cannot promise anything.
I strongly recommend using JEI because there are A LOT of recipes (66).
If you think some recipes need changing or you've found a bug please mention it in the comments.
The mod adds craftable enchanment upgrades for all enchantments, for most of them it also adds "Elite" upgrades, which allows them to go to double the vanilla limit.
If you like the mod feel free to share it around.
NOTE: I AM NOT AN EXPERIENCED MODDER, THERE WILL LIKELY BE CRASHES AND OTHER MAJOR ISSUES, THIS MOD WAS NOT TESTED IN MULTIPLAYER, USE THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Example of adding an upgrade (Protection) to an item (Draconic Chestplate).
Here's a view of all the items in the JEI item menu.
