Say hello to the Zacians!

Now, with a bit of effort, it's not just zombie villagers that can be of use to you. Inflict a zombie with slowness and weakness, then give them a diamond studded apple, and acquire a steadfast companion! You can equip them with armor and weapons, and put food in their inventory for them to eat if they get hurt. The more things they kill for you, the stronger they get! You can either ask them to follow you or leave them behind to protect your base, where they'll patrol a four block radius, rather than sitting still.

Shift-Right-Click to open their inventory menu, where you can give them whatever equipment you'd like. They can even carry things for you if your own inventory gets too full out on your adventures. If equipped with Mending gear, they'll collect XP orbs to repair it.

They'll also drink potions placed in their inventory. Zacian Companions, when damaged, will consume the first consumable item in their inventory, whatever it may be, and continue until they're fully healed. Place potions at the top of their inventory to let them automatically buff themselves!

Hostile Zacians

You may also encounter Zacians out in the wild, found in Forts, Houses, and Haciendas throughout the world. But be careful! These Zaciens don't owe you a life debt, and they're not keen to make your acquaintance. They wear armor and carry axes or swords, so be prepared for a tough fight if you run into them!

They also seem to have avendetta against zombies... Can't imagine why, though...

Compatabilities

If you have Improved Mobs installed, hostile Zacians will instead use equipment supplied by that mod.

Compatible with Better Mob Combat for a more dynamic experience.
