About this Mod
Better Tipped Arrows improves the behavior of vanilla tipped arrows by making their effects more intuitive and useful.
When a tipped arrow hits the ground, instead of requiring players to shoot entities directly, it releases a vanilla-style lingering potion cloud at the impact location.
The cloud uses the exact potion, duration, and amplifier of the arrow, creating a behavior consistent with lingering potions.
Features :
- Works with all vanilla tipped arrows
- Spawns a lingering potion effect cloud on impact
- Uses original potion data (type, duration, amplifier)
- Fully vanilla-balanced behavior
- No custom items or arrows added
- Server-side safe and lightweight
Perfect for support gameplay, tactical combat, and utility effects without awkward self-inflicted shots.
