About this Mod
[Requires Fabric API. Custom textures made by my friend TomatoIcecream]
Obtained rarely from Ancient City chests, this mod adds 2 new handles which can be used to upgrade netherite weapons and give them new abilities. Combine one handle with the other, and a new boss shall be summoned...
Inspired by Hypixel Skyblock's "Voidgloom Seraph" boss, this enemy can prove to be decently challenging. After it is killed, it will grant you 1 of 4 Resistant Netherite armor pieces. Each piece will reduce your knockback further, and with a full set, your new weapon abilities will be upgraded!
Here are some small tips for the fight:
- Summon the boss in a flat arena!
- Bring all your best gear and golden apples.
- When it gets angry, look in the eyes.
- When hearing the sound of dolphins, shoot a projectile.
- When its about to explode, quickly hit it with any melee attack.
Have fun!
