ℹ️ About
Big Swords R (Remembered or Reboot or Remake, etc.) adds Big Swords in the game, they deal more damage than regular swords but the attack speed is lowered. The mod also adds two new types of weapons, Glaives and Scythes. And the long awaited SHIELDS, each with one special perk and weakness.
✨ Features
| 🌱 Farming | New Biomass Seed which grows on Tilled Creep Blocks, only way to gain Biomass |
| 🪨 New Materials | Livingmetal and Biomass are two new materials. |
| ⚔️️ Big Swords | Similar to swords. But BIGGER, they deal more damage but have lower attack speed. |
| ⚔️️ Glaives | New weapons that deal small damage, but are fast and have more range. |
| ⚔️️ Scythes | New weapons that are similar to hoes but BETTER, they hit mobs in a short area. |
| 🛡️ Shields | New shields that are similar to the minecraft ones but BETTER, each having a perk that comes with a weakness. |
❓ Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why? \ A: Because I want to bring the good old mods back.
Q: Why the new sword textures? \ A: Because I find them way cooler than the old textures tbf and better look, but I integrated a 16x resourcepack for those who rather use the 16x textures.
