Description
AcroWield: Action Combat Overhaul
AcroWield is a vanilla-friendly action combat mod that introduces innovative mechanics while preserving the classic Minecraft feel. Enhance your strategy with dual wielding, dodging, crouch blocking, parrying, and shield bashing, and experience truly acrobatic and dynamic combat. It also significantly enhances crossbows, allowing for devastating close-range multishot blasts and powerful piercing attacks.
Features
Dual Wielding: You can now attack with a weapon in your non-dominant hand. Whether you prefer dual wielding, a sword and axe, or any other weapon combination, fight with your preferred weapon setup. Off-hand attacks are performed by right-clicking.
Dodge (Dash): Perform a fast dash with a short period of invincibility (default: V key). Dodging in combination with movement keys allows for forward charges, sidesteps, and backsteps. However, frequent dashing reduces hunger, so use it wisely.
Crouching Guard: Similar to Bedrock Edition, you can now use your shield while crouching. This allows for advanced tactics not possible in vanilla, such as attacking with a spear while maintaining a guard.
Perfect Guard (Parry): A "Perfect Guard" is activated when you perfectly time your guard. It not only knocks back the enemy but also does not consume shield durability.
Shield Bash: A "Shield Bash" is activated when you dash while guarding. You charge at the enemy, dealing minor damage and knocking them back, but this consumes shield durability.
Projectile Deflection: By swinging your weapon with perfect timing, you can deflect incoming projectiles such as arrows.
Crossbow Multishot (Shotgun): Arrows and Firework Rockets fired from a crossbow with the Multishot enchantment will now hit the same mob multiple times. By firing at point-blank range, it can be used as a weapon that unleashes overwhelming burst damage.
Crossbow Piercing (Drill Hit & Carpet Bombing): Arrows fired from a crossbow with the Piercing enchantment will now hit multiple times depending on the size of the enemy, making it highly effective against large mobs. Firework Rockets will now trigger a chain of explosions upon impact, wiping out enemies in a straight line.
