Playful Cloud

Quickstart

1. Craft Playful Cloud at a crafting table:

1. Equip it in your main hand.
2. Attack the same enemy repeatedly to build a chain. Your first chained strike deals 5 bonus damage, and each consecutive hit on that same target increases the bonus by 1.
3. Try to maintain the chain against one strong enemy. Striking a different target starts that target’s chain at 5 bonus damage.

In Creative mode, search for Playful Cloud in the Equipment category. You can also obtain it with:

Overview

Playful Cloud is a single-target combo weapon. It behaves like a sword during normal attacks, then adds escalating bonus damage whenever you continue striking the same target.

A burst effect appears on players and living mobs when the chain damage is applied.

What It Adds

• Playful Cloud, a stackable-to-one sword weapon
• A same-target chain attack mechanic
• Bonus damage that grows with consecutive hits
• A visual burst effect on struck players and living mobs
• Sword enchantment support

How To Use

Hold Playful Cloud in your main hand and use your normal attack control to hit an enemy.

To build a chain:

• Hit the same target repeatedly.
• Avoid attacking other targets while building damage.
• Keep attacking the current target to increase the bonus.
• Switching targets resets the next hit on the new target to the minimum chain damage.

The chain is tracked separately for each attacker, so each player builds their own chain.

Crafting And Obtaining

Playful Cloud is crafted at a crafting table using crimson stems and a chain:

The recipe uses two crimson stems with one chain between them. It unlocks when you have obtained a crimson stem and a chain.

Abilities And Mechanics

Crimson Chain Damage

The first hit on a target applies 5 bonus damage after the weapon’s normal sword hit. Each consecutive hit on that same target increases the bonus by 1:

The bonus damage cannot exceed 50. Hitting a different target begins a new chain at 5 bonus damage, even if the previous target had a higher chain.

Burst Effect

Players and living mobs struck by the chain damage display a large burst effect at their location, making successful chained hits easy to see.

Sword Properties

• Base weapon damage: 4
• Enchantable as a sword
• Cannot be stacked with other Playful Cloud items

Progression And Strategy

Playful Cloud is most effective when fighting one durable enemy at a time. Start building the chain on a target with enough health to survive several attacks, then keep your aim on that target so the bonus continues to rise.

Against groups, decide whether to finish the current target or switch immediately. A new target always starts at the minimum bonus, so spreading attacks between enemies prevents the chain from reaching its highest damage.
