Description
⚔️ Awakened Mobs
An Epic Fight addon that turns ordinary mobs into awakened swordfighters.
Forget mindlessly shambling enemies. Zombies, skeletons and piglins now spawn wielding Epic Fight weapons and trade blows with you for real — they block, parry, counter, and sprint you down.
✨ Features
🗡️ Armed with Epic Fight Weapons
Mobs spawn holding a variety of Epic Fight weapons, fully animated by Epic Fight.
- Greatswords
- Spears
- Tachi
- Longswords
- Dual Daggers
- All 6 tiers: wood → netherite

🛡️ Guard — 3-Second Defensive Stance
When hit, awakened mobs have a chance to raise their guard, reducing incoming damage for a few seconds.
It plays the proper Epic Fight guard animation based on the weapon they are holding.
⚡ Parry — Instant Counterattack
On the moment of impact, mobs may perform a parry.
A successful parry can:
- Fully negate the incoming hit
- Knock back the attacker
- Stagger the attacker
- Immediately turn the fight against you
🏃 Runners
Some mobs become aggressive runners and chase you at sprinting player speed.
No more slowly walking backward forever — awakened mobs can actually catch up.

Skeletons that receive a melee weapon will automatically:
- Drop their bow behavior
- Switch to melee AI
