Features

Ratchet Driver

A balanced mechanical weapon that stores charge while blocking. Striking with stored charge deals bonus damage and releases a controlled shockwave around the target.

Special enchantments:

Obliterate: Lowers direct hit damage but greatly increases the power of the shockwave.

Overcharge: Adds two extra max charges, letting the weapon store even more energy at the cost of backlash when overextended.

Overcrank Ratchet Driver

A more extreme Ratchet Driver that stores far more charge for heavier follow-up attacks. Critical hits can add extra stored charge after a short delay, and charged impacts also damage armor durability.

Special enchantments:

Overcharge: Pushes the charge limit even higher for even stronger stored hits.

Inversion: Reverses the shockwave, pulling enemies inward instead of launching them away.

Heavy Ratchet Driver

A slower and heavier Ratchet weapon built for brutal impact. Charged strikes slam enemies downward, partially pierce armor, and create a much larger shockwave than the standard Ratchet Driver.

Special enchantments:

Obliterate: Turns charged impacts into a much more destructive area blast.

Overcharge: Adds two extra max charges for even more devastating hits.

Latchet Rebounder

A mechanical ranged weapon that stores up to 5 charges and releases them in a burst of instant hitscan shots. Stored charge slowly decays over time if left unused.

Special enchantments:

Rapid Fire: Replaces stored charge with a sustained spinning barrage that ramps up as it fires.

Railpiercer: Fires stronger shots that pierce through one block and one target.

Ratchet Indexer

Allows the player to store an anchor point by right-clicking. Sneak-right-click activates the device: in Untuned mode, it indexes nearby living entities to the anchor, and in Tuned mode, it teleports the player there. In Half-tune, it will send nearby dropped items there.

Mechanical Tuner

Used in the offhand with the Ratchet Indexer to swap between Untuned, Tuned, and Half-Tune modes. A Ghast Tear sends the player to the highest safe anchor point, while raw iron, raw gold, or raw copper sends them to the lowest.

Enchantments

Rapid Fire Replaces the Latchet Rebounder's stored charge with a sustained automatic barrage. Applicable to the Latchet Rebounder

Railpiercer Fires stronger, piercing shots that pass through one block and one target. Applicable to the Latchet Rebounder

Obliterate Reduces direct hit damage but heavily increases charged shockwave power. Applicable to the Ratchet Driver and Heavy Ratchet Driver Cannot be combined with Overcharge

Overcharge Adds 2 max charges to Ratchet weapons, allowing stronger stored attacks at the cost of backlash when pushed past their normal limits. Applicable to the Ratchet Driver, Heavy Ratchet Driver, and Overcrank Ratchet Driver Cannot be combined with Obliterate

Inversion Reverses the Overcrank Ratchet Driver's shockwave so it pulls enemies inward instead of knocking them away. Applicable to the Overcrank Ratchet Driver
