Scythe Mod

Scythe Mod adds powerful endgame scythes with unique combat mechanics, active abilities, special right-click skills, HUD timers, custom progression, enchantments, and dark fantasy-style gameplay for both survival and PvP.

This is not just a weapon pack. Each scythe has its own playstyle, resource loop, cooldowns, risks, and combat identity.

Features

A cursed melee weapon built around pressure, sustain, and finishing marked targets.

Inflicts Bleeding, a custom damage-over-time effect.
Bleeding deals true damage and ignores normal defenses.

Can partially pierce enemy damage mitigation.
Can use the exclusive Spiked Blade enchantment.
Right Click — Blender Pulls nearby hostile targets toward you, damages them, slows them, and applies Bleeding.

Toxic Scythe

An anti-armor scythe focused on poison, durability damage, and area denial.

Basic attacks can damage the target’s entire armor set.
Basic attacks can apply Poison II.
Can use the exclusive Acidity enchantment to increase armor damage from Toxic Scythe abilities.
Right Click — Toxic Orb Launches a projectile that bursts on impact, deals armor-piercing damage, applies poison, and damages armor.
Scythe Ability Key — Toxic Aura Creates a short-duration aura that poisons nearby enemies, damages armor over time, and can trigger extra armor-piercing damage or nausea.

Golden Scythe

A luck-based scythe focused on loot, golden marks, Piglin safety, and high-value target execution.

Adds +1 level to Looting while held in either hand.
Piglins become neutral while the Golden Scythe is held, similar to golden equipment.
The passive Looting bonus does not stack with other Golden Scythes.
Can mark enemies so they drop improved loot when killed.
Right Click — Midas Touch Damages a target for 50% of its max health, with minimum and maximum damage limits. If the ability kills the target, it drops loot with additional Looting power. If the target survives, it receives a golden mark and still drops improved loot when killed later.
Scythe Ability Key — Golden Rain Marks all enemies in a large radius. Marked enemies drop improved loot when killed.

Scythe Combat

Scythes are designed to work as real main weapons, not only as ability tools.

Scythes can perform sword-like sweeping attacks.
Scythes can receive regular sword enchantments.
Scythes remain compatible with their own unique enchantments.
Scythe-specific enchantments are restricted to their intended scythes.
