About this Mod
Improved Fletching
Improved Fletching is a simple mod that allows the fletching table to be used as a sort of crafting table-esque block. Alongside this addition, I have added four custom arrow types that can be crafted exclusively using the fletching table: magma, carrot, quartz, and honey-dipped.
- Magma Arrow: An Alternative to the "flame" enchantment that sets enemies ablaze.
- Carrot Arrow: An alternative to bonemeal that skips a random amount of growth when shot at a crop.
- Quartz Arrow: An alternative to instant-damage arrows that does additional damage.
- Honey-Dipped Arrow: An alternative to slowness-two arrows that slow targets down.
This is a very lightweight mod that currently takes up 56 KB of space to download. I will be actively updating this mod as new versions come out, similar to my Note Block Charged Mod.
Requires Fabric API to run
Special thanks to u/PowerPork for the idea and the arrow textures!
