Black Flash Gauntlets

Quickstart

1. Craft the gauntlets using the recipe below.
2. Equip them by holding them in your hand — no special armor slot needed.
3. Punch a mob or player. Every landed hit deals a massive burst of damage, accompanied by a dark explosive flash, a deep impact sound, and a camera shake.
4. Watch your durability — the gauntlets take damage chance on hits and can be repaired with iron ingots.

Overview

The Black Flash Gauntlets are a devastating melee weapon inspired by Yuji's iconic "Black Flash" technique. Rather than relying on normal weapon damage calculations, every successful hit delivers a fixed, overwhelming amount of damage — enough to instantly drop most mobs and severely wound players, regardless of their armor or resistance. Each strike is accompanied by dramatic particle effects, sound, and screen shake for maximum impact.

What It Adds

• Black Flash Gauntlets — a one-handed melee weapon that behaves like a sword but hits with devastating force.

How To Use

• Hold the gauntlets in your hand and attack any living target (players or mobs).
• Every hit that connects deals a flat 24 points of damage (12 hearts), overriding normal damage calculations — armor and resistance do not reduce this.
• On hit, the target is engulfed in an explosive particle burst, hears a heavy impact sound, and receives a brief camera shake.
• The gauntlets can be enchanted like a sword and benefit from sword-related enchantments.

Crafting And Obtaining

Craft the Black Flash Gauntlets at a crafting table using netherite scrap, iron ingots, and a diamond.

Abilities And Mechanics

• Fixed Damage Override: Every hit deals exactly 24 HP of damage to the target, ignoring the weapon's base damage stat and the target's armor.
• Visual and Audio Feedback: Landing a hit triggers a huge explosion-style particle effect plus a sonic burst above the target, along with a dragon-like impact sound.
• Camera Shake: Struck entities experience a brief positional camera shake, adding to the dramatic "flash" feel of the hit.
• Durability: The gauntlets have 400 max durability and a chance to lose durability with each use. They can be repaired using iron ingots.

Progression And Strategy

Because each hit deals such a large, guaranteed amount of damage, the gauntlets are best used as a decisive finishing weapon — most standard mobs will be defeated in a single punch. Keep an eye on durability during extended fights, and carry iron ingots to repair the gauntlets between engagements. Enchanting the gauntlets with sword enchantments can further boost their effectiveness in combat.
