About this Mod
Do you want to fight with Wither, but tired of skull grinding? Craft this wonderful sword and go to kill wither skeletons, cause with it your chances to get wither skeleton skull are increased (8% instead of 5.5% with Looting III)!
Looting III is really rare enchantment and you should have really much luck to get it. And even with this skull hunt is still grindy.
Download this mod if you tired to run in nether fortress for hours to find and kill many wither skeletons.
This mod adds: Blaze sword which will help you get wither skeleton skull by easier way.
Also you will get Fire Aspect enchantment when sword will be crafted. Because it's made with Blaze power! By the way, Whither skeletons are immune to fire, but this enchantment will help you to kill non-immune to fire mobs.
Enchanability: 10 (same as diamonds tools)
Damage: 6.5
Attack speed: 1.6
Durability: 150 (Lesser than iron tools, but more than stone tools)
Craft:
[Blaze Rod]
[Blaze Rod]

I tried to make this mod pretty balanced, I hope you will like it.
