Archer's Paradox
The Archer's Paradox mod is actively developed for Minecraft version 1.18.2 and offers players various arrows suitable for both vanilla gameplay and modpacks with numerous mods.
Requirements and Configuration
The mod requires CoFH Core to be installed. Configuration files are located in the following folders:
- Client:
archers_paradox-client.tomlin the/configdirectory - Server:
archers_paradox-server.tomlin the/saves/WORLD_NAME/serverconfigsfolder
If you copy the configuration file to the /defaultconfigs folder, these settings will apply to all newly created worlds. On dedicated servers, the file is located in /world/serverconfigs.
Arrow Varieties
The mod adds the following types of arrows with unique properties:
- Diamond: Doubles damage, adds +1 to piercing and knockback
- Prismarine: No slowdown in water, reduced gravity underwater
- Quartz: Damage increased by 1.25 times, +1 to knockback
- Blaze: Sets target on fire and ignites surrounding area
- Frost: Freezes target and surrounding territory
- Lightning: Summons lightning strike when hitting outdoors
- Ender: Teleports player to impact location or swaps places with target
- Explosive: Obvious explosion effect
- Phantasmal: Flies through blocks, unlimited piercing, ignores gravity and armor, glows
- Shulker: Homes in on target, applies levitation status effect
- Slime: Ricochets and has strong knockback (developer's personal favorite)
- Spore: Transforms dirt and grass into mycelium in impact area
- Verdant: Converts dirt to grass, accelerates plant and crop growth
- Training: No damage, accumulates "hit streak" effect for practice (distance matters!)
- Challenge: No damage, accumulates "Archer's Gambit" effect, gives XP for maintaining hit streak (distance matters!)
Currently, the mod features one creative mode tab with arrows. Future plans include adding quivers, themed blocks, and other archery-related content.
