Familiar Weapons
Java mod listed for Minecraft 1.20. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.
Familiar Weapons
Adds a few pieces of equipment that are Minecraft-ified versions of weapons from other media.
- Ankh Shield: Cures negative effects while in hand
- Elegant Reaper's Scythe: A scythe that can summon wither skulls. Also works as a hoe
- Light Arrow: an upgraded Spectral Arrow that has Piercing IV by default and can pierce single-block walls (this is a little jank)
- Plasma Sword: A sword that ignores armor but deals no knockback
- Glove(s) of Urgency: Gloves that make you run faster
All weapons have support for Better Combat weapon attribute, and if you want to Dual-Wield Gloves of Urgency then you will need that mod. All weapons are craftable by default, but I encourage you to change the method of obtaining to your liking.
For both Fabric and Forge. Requires Architectury API.
