Overview

The Bloodstain Add-on introduces a modular combat expansion designed to bridge the gap between vanilla swords and lightweight melee options. By implementing custom daggers into Bedrock Edition, this add-on changes how players approach close-quarters engagements. Daggers offer shorter reach and distinct durability trade-offs compared to traditional weapons, giving combat a faster, more decision-driven rhythm without disrupting standard survival progression.

Key Features

Custom Weapon Class (Daggers): Adds three fully functional, craftable daggers into the game—the Iron Dagger, Obsidian Dagger, and Blood Dagger.
Tiered Stat Progression: Each dagger carries distinct stats designed around specific combat scenarios, ranging from high-durability standard options to high-risk glass-cannon weapons.
Custom Mechanics (Lifesteal): Incorporates Script API integration to enable a real-time health-siphoning system on specific tier weapons, healing players as they land successful melee strikes.
Full Survival Integration: Complete with custom crafting recipes, creative inventory categorization, full anvil repairability, and table enchantment support matching vanilla weapon standards.

Included Equipment

Iron Dagger (bloodstain:iron_dagger)

The foundation of the add-on. Designed as an early-to-midgame alternative to the standard iron sword, the Iron Dagger trades raw durability for low resource investment.

Damage: 4
Durability: 160
Enchantability: 14 (Iron Tier)
Crafting: 1 Stick, 1 Iron Ingot
Repair Material: Iron Ingot

Obsidian Dagger (bloodstain:obsidian_dagger)

A heavy-hitting, brittle weapon designed for quick burst damage. While it deals damage equivalent to netherite-tier weaponry, its volcanic glass structure means it shatters rapidly under sustained use.

Damage: 8
Durability: 90
Enchantability: 10
Crafting: 1 Stick, 1 Obsidian Block
Repair Material: Obsidian

Blood Dagger (bloodstain:blood_dagger)

The centerpiece of the add-on. Infused with redstone energy, this dagger grants active lifesteal capabilities, restoring 1 Heart (2 HP) to the wielder upon striking an entity. It serves as a durable mid-to-lategame weapon ideal for long combat encounters.

Damage: 6
Durability: 350
Enchantability: 20 (High Enchantability)
Special Ability: Lifesteal on contact
Crafting: 1 Iron Dagger, 1 Redstone Block
