Description

Well I've gotta say, after putting off learning how to make mods for so long, it's nice to finally be able to do this! Presenting...

The Shadox Legend Set!

What is the "Legend Set"?

It's a mod where one is able to find and/or create weapons based on LEGENDS, such as King Arthur's well-known blade Excalibur or the lesser-known Kusanagi no Tsurugi - all with methods reminiscent of their original stories and snazzy hybrid* textures!

*While the images are 32x32, I used a base 16x16 image and then upscaled it to add fantastic details to make the items special and really pop!

How can I find these wondrous items and what do they do?

There is a unique way to obtain each weapon in this mod, though all of it is based on luck in finding the items needed to have the item - it wouldn't be any fun to just make a legendary sword with easily-obtainable ores, now would it? AND as a result of having luck-based rare items, none of these legendary items have durability!

Excalibur:

You have to make Excalibur, but that doesn't mean you use boring ingots! No, first you have to fish for the weaker Caliburn and the less-common Excalibur Dormi* and craft them in a "plus" shape, with Caliburn in the middle and Excalibur Dormi surrounding it! While Caliburn is twice as rare as vanilla's fishing "treasures," Excalibur Dormi is as rare as them, so if you can't seem to fish out Excalibur Dormi, you can always craft a "plus" of Caliburn to get it!

Since Excalibur is regarded as a very powerful sword, it is the most powerful item this mod adds, only being comparable to Odin's spear Gungnir! It has a base 12 damage with added enchantment effects** to make it even more powerful - Sharpness, Fire Aspect, Smite, and Knockback!

*"Excalibur Dormi" is in French and translates to "Sleeping Excalibur"!

**Enchantment effects are level 1 if you craft it, but through the Creative menu, they're all level 3!

Kusanagi no Tsurugi:

Since Kusanagi no Tsurugi translates to "Grass-Cutting Sword," I thought it would be appropriate to have to find it in tall grass, and that's exactly how you find it - though it has a 1-in-20 000 chance of dropping from destroyed Tall Grass - over 70 chunks' worth of grass you'd need to mow on average to have this black-and-jade sword!

Even though it doesn't even compare to the great Excalibur, with a base 6 damage, it's no small matter - but wait! That's the same damage as an Iron Sword! Whether you just can't seem to find any Iron Ore, or you just prefer to have armor and a pickaxe first, this sword is a great weapon to find early in the game, being more readily available than Excalibur!

Gungnir:

If Arthurian Legend isn't quite your thing or you simply want a weapon that isn't another sword, then Gungnir is the spear for you! Unlike Excalibur, you actually do need vanilla ores to make it, but that doesn't mean there's no custom item involved! First you have to get 6 Yggdrasil Sticks to make 2 Yggdrasil Shafts by making a vertical line in the crafting table, and Yggdrasil Sticks are a 1-in-9 000 drop from leaves!

Gungnir is certainly a powerful spear, with a base 11 damage - 1 less than Excalibur! - and added enchantment effects* - Knockback, Smite, Bane of Arthropods, and Looting!

*Enchantment effects are level 1 if you craft it, but through the Creative menu, they're all level 3!

What does it actually look like?

I guess in accordance with the "no pics, no clicks" philosophy, I've gotta show off the snazzy visuals of this mod!

Who made this wonderful mod?

I, Shadox, and my brother, gudenau, worked on this mod together; I made all the textures and came up with everything you see, and my brother helped me learn how to code it and gave me the initial code and direction with which to take this mod!
