Arcane Arsenal — 1.1

Minecraft 26.1.2 • NeoForge • Release

Arcane Warforge is now Arcane Arsenal. This update adds a lightning sword and a wind bow, each with six skills, and gives every Hell Flame Blade skill its own casting gesture. The changes below cover 1.0 → 1.1.

Added

• Tempest Edge, a lightning sword with six skills: Thunder Judgment, Lightning Step, Chain Lightning, Static Field, Tesla Cage, and Tempest Fury.
• Gale Whisper, a wind bow that needs no ammunition. A fully drawn shot fires the selected skill: Gale Arrow, Updraft, Feather Fan, Tornado, Repulse Gust, or Hurricane Eye.
• Tempest Ingot and Gale Ingot, crafted like the Hellfire Ingot. At a smithing table, a Netherite Upgrade template turns a netherite sword into the Tempest Edge and a bow into the Gale Whisper. Like the Hell Flame Blade, both have no durability and keep the enchantments of the item they are forged from.
• Casting gestures for the six Hell Flame Blade skills, in first and third person, also visible to other players.
• New server settings for the twelve new skills in arcane_weapons-server.toml.

Changed

• Renamed the mod and its creative tab to Arcane Arsenal. The mod ID (arcane_weapons), item IDs, and saved data are unchanged.
• The skill HUD shows the skills of the weapon in hand, with a copper frame for the Hell Flame Blade, cyan for the Tempest Edge, and mint green for the Gale Whisper.
• The Hell Flame Blade is held like a vanilla sword, in both hands and in first and third person.
• Volcanic Rush now stops in front of any living body in its path instead of passing into it. The final slash is released from that point.
• Near the camera, Hell Flame effects fade out. In first person, the Forge Crown is drawn above your line of sight, and the Magma Serpent appears in front of you.

Fixed

• The swords no longer replay the equip animation when only a skill selection or synchronization changes.
• Firing a Forge Crown blade into the air no longer swings the sword or resets the attack cooldown.
