Ultimate Arsenal (Hundreds of weapons)

# Ultimate Arsenal

**206 relic weapons and 30 armor sets. Not one of them can be crafted.**

Ultimate Arsenal fills your world with legendary loot. Every weapon has its own mix of passive perks and a right-click ability. Every armor set has its own 2-piece and 4-piece set bonuses, and the rarest sets come with fully custom 3D models: wings, halos, crowns of fire and ice, antlers and more. The only way to get any of it is to go out and earn it: explore dangerous structures or take down bosses, from vanilla or any other mod in your pack.

## Armor sets

Wear **2 pieces** of a set to unlock its first bonus, and the **full set** to unlock its 4-piece bonus as well. Mix two half-sets to get both 2-piece bonuses. Set bonuses work with any weapon, not just relics.

### Themed sets

| Set | 2 pieces | 4 pieces |
|---|---|---|
| **Emberforged** | Immune to fire | Attackers burst into flame; +25% damage to burning targets |
| **Rimeborn** | Attackers are slowed | *Frozen Heart:* drop to low health and freeze everything around you |
| **Viperfang** | Immune to poison | Attackers are poisoned, and so is everything you hit |
| **Stonehewn** | Immune to knockback | Take 12% less damage, no fall damage |
| **Galeborne** | Speed and Jump Boost | 15% chance to dodge attacks, no fall damage |
| **Stormcaller's** | Speed | Lightning strikes your attackers; your hits arc to nearby enemies |
| **Sanguine** | Heal from all damage you deal | Up to +40% damage the lower your health |
| **Duskwoven** | Night Vision | Invisible while sneaking; +50% damage from invisibility |
| **Runebound** | Relic abilities recharge 20% faster | 40% less magic damage, and abilities recharge even faster |
| **Gravemarrow** | Immune to wither | Kills grant absorption hearts; your hits wither |
| **Tidecaller's** | Water Breathing, Dolphin's Grace | +30% damage and Regeneration in water or rain |
| **Voidtouched** | 25% chance to dodge projectiles | Banish attackers elsewhere, no fall damage |

### Legendary sets

- **Titan's Aegis:** immune to knockback, constant Resistance. *Last Stand* grants 8 absorption hearts and Resistance III when you drop low, and explosions deal half damage.

- **Voidwalker's Shroud:** dodge projectiles, no fall damage. *Phase Step:* when struck, take half damage and blink behind your attacker with Strength II.
- **Stormlord's Mantle:** Speed II. Lightning strikes back at attackers, and your hits chain lightning between enemies.

- **Starwoven Vestments:** Night Vision and slow fall. Every 8th hit calls down a falling star, and relic abilities recharge 25% faster.

Armor defense scales with tier, from roughly iron at Rare to beyond netherite at Legendary.

## Rarity tiers

| Tier | Power | Where to look |
|---|---|---|
| Rare | Base | Ordinary structure chests |
| Epic | +20% | Dangerous structures, bosses |
| Mythic | +45%, lava-proof | Dangerous structures, End chests, bosses |
| Legendary | +75%, lava-proof | Rare finds in the most dangerous places; most common from bosses |

Tier boosts weapon damage, durability, ability power and armor defense.

## How to get them

There are **no recipes**. Relics come from two places:

- **Structure chests.** Any chest loot table from vanilla or any mod can roll a relic. Strongholds, ancient cities, bastions, dungeons, towers and castles have better odds and higher tiers. End cities have the best chest odds.
- **Bosses.** The Wither, Ender Dragon, Warden, Elder Guardians and bosses from mods like L_Ender's Cataclysm, Twilight Forest, Mowzie's Mobs and Iron's Spells 'n Spellbooks drop relics when killed by a player. Untagged modded bosses are caught too: by default, any hostile mob with 150+ health counts.

About a third of relic drops are armor pieces, and each drop is a single piece, so completing a set takes real dedication. Completing an Elemental Regalia set is the endgame.

Boss drops glow, never despawn and can't be destroyed. Ender Dragon drops land at your feet instead of falling into the void.

## Controls

- **Melee weapons:** right-click to use the ability.
- **Bows, staffs and wands:** sneak + right-click to use the ability. Hold right-click to keep firing staffs and wands.
- **Seraphim Ascendant:** with the full set on, jump and press jump again in mid-air to spread your wings and glide.
- Hover over any relic to see its perks, ability, cooldown or set bonuses.

## For modpack makers

Everything is configurable in `config/ultimatearsenal-common.toml`:

- how often a relic drop is armor instead of a weapon
- chest chances and tier weights for ordinary, dangerous and End structures
- which structures count as dangerous (matched by keyword, so modded structures work)
- boss drop counts, tier weights, extra boss IDs and a blacklist
- the health threshold for treating untagged mobs as bosses

You can also add bosses with a datapack tag at `data/ultimatearsenal/tags/entity_type/bosses.json`.

Area abilities and set bonuses only hit hostile mobs or mobs targeting you. They never hurt other players, pets or villagers.

Relics support standard enchantments (Sharpness, Protection, Looting, Power, Mending and more) and are tagged with the common weapon and armor tags so other mods recognize them.
