About this Mod
Requires the Origins Mod for Minecraft 1.20.1
Note: You have to add the datapack manually to your world if you are intending to add it with the modrinth app.
Origin Impact: 1
Dominates the seven seas with a powerful cannon, delivering explosive firepower with deadly precision. Every shot is calculated and controlled, striking fear into enemies with both accuracy and force.
Powers
Fire in the Hull!
- Fire a cannonball that deals 7 damage to anything in its path, shattering bones and inflicting slowness.
- While airborne, this ability instead propels you forward and upward, allowing for a rocket jump.
Ammunition
- You have three shots before your cannon needs to reload, slowing you down as you prepare for the next blast.
- (Reloading takes 3 seconds and gives Slowness II)
Frugal Metabolism
- A life at sea taught you to ration every bite, so your hunger depletes slower than others.
Backdraft
- If you're caught in an explosion, your cannon misfires and explodes, damaging you and reducing your ammunition by one.
Coverfire
- Sacrificing your defense for maximum firepower, you have 2 less hearts and cannot use shields.
