About this Mod
🗡️ Daggers
A Fabric mod introducing highly detailed, fast-attacking Daggers!
Overview
Daggers is a lightweight Fabric mod that adds a rapid-strike alternative to traditional swords. With custom 3D models and carefully balanced mechanics, daggers are perfect for players who prefer fast, precise combat.
✨ Features
- Single-Target Strikes: Daggers do not trigger the vanilla sweep attack. Perfect for precise combat in crowded areas without accidentally hitting your pets or allies!
- High-Speed Combat: Extremely fast attack speeds (up to 3.0) balanced by lower base damage.
- Custom 3D Models: Beautifully designed 3D models with unique textures (golden shines, diamond crystal reflections, and netherite lava cracks).
- Headstab Mechanic: A fun and dangerous easter egg! Equipping a dagger directly into your helmet slot will deal 2.5 damage (1.25 hearts) to you. Don't play with knives!
- Dedicated Creative Tab: All items are neatly organized in the custom "Daggers" creative tab.
