A mod that adds craftable katanas to Hytale, craftable in the weapon's workbench.

Description

⚔️ Uggles’ Katanas  
A progression-focused katana framework built for Hytale.

This mod adds a set of katanas designed to slot naturally into vanilla gameplay while leaving room for deeper combat mechanics as modding support expands. It’s my first Hytale mod, built with balance, clarity, and future systems in mind.

🔧 Recent Fixes/Additions

🧩 DESIGN PHILOSOPHY

Rather than focusing on flashy mechanics right away, this mod prioritizes:

- Clear tier progression  
- Visual distinction between materials  
- Combat that emphasizes movement  
- A foundation that can grow alongside the modding API  

Signature abilities and advanced combat mechanics are planned, but only once they can be implemented cleanly and reliably.

🗡️ KATANA PROGRESSION

The mod currently includes 7 katana tiers, balanced to follow vanilla material strength:

Wood  
Copper  
Iron  
Cobalt  
Mithril  
Adamantite  
Thorium  

Each katana:
- Is craftable  
- Uses tier-appropriate balance  
- Has a distinct visual design  
- Is crafted through the Weapons Workbench  


All Swords

🥋 COMBAT & MOVEMENT

Dodge Ability

Custom weapons currently have limited blocking behavior, so katanas instead focus on mobility.

- Katanas include a dodge ability for repositioning and evasion  
- Standard blocking is still available


Dodge Ability

🎨 VISUAL DIRECTION

- Every tier has its own look  
- Designs stay close to Hytale’s vanilla style

Future updates may expand visuals further once advanced animation and VFX systems are better understood.

⚔️ COMPATIBLE WITH HOTBAR COMBAT ABILITIES

- Unique UI

I made a video showcasing the abilities and also Hotbar Combat Abilities here:

Unique Hotbar (Placeholder)

The ability hotbar is designed to show off the Katana you're holding and using.
It also is accented by wisteria leaves.
I will aim to make this less pink in the future.

⚔️ This mod is meant to grow.  
Right now it’s a solid katana base. Later, it’s meant to become something deeper.
