Hundredfold Arsenal

Quickstart

1. Gather your elemental material. For the easiest first weapon, grab some coal (Shadow), copper ingots (Storm), emeralds (Verdant), glowstone dust (Solar), amethyst shards (Crystal), prismarine crystals (Tidal), ender pearls (Void), or echo shards (Echo) — all obtainable early to mid game. For Ember or Frost weapons, mine the mod's new Ember Ore or Frost Ore found in the Overworld.
2. Craft your weapon. Open a crafting table, place your elemental material and a weapon-form core anywhere in the grid (shapeless). For example: coal + iron sword = Shadow Blade.
3. Equip and fight. Left-click to attack and trigger the weapon's passive on-hit effect. Right-click to activate the cooldown-based special ability.
4. Browse everything in the Hundredfold Arsenal creative tab, which contains all 100 weapons and all new ores.
5. In creative or for testing, use /hundredfoldarsenal give_all to receive every weapon at once, or /hundredfoldarsenal give_number <1–100> for a specific one.

Overview

Hundredfold Arsenal adds exactly 100 weapons to survival Minecraft, built from a matrix of 10 elemental aspects and 10 weapon forms. Every weapon has two layers of gameplay: a passive on-hit effect that triggers automatically when you strike enemies, and a right-click special ability on a cooldown. Weapons vary in attack damage, attack speed, and durability depending on their aspect and form, letting you build toward melee brawler, ranged, support, or utility playstyles.

What It Adds

Ten Elemental Aspects

Ten Weapon Forms

The form you choose adjusts the range, cooldown, and power of the right-click special, as well as base attack speed and durability.

New Ores

Two custom ores — Ember Ore and Frost Ore — generate in the Overworld and are mineable with any pickaxe. Both appear in the Hundredfold Arsenal creative tab alongside all weapons.

Crafting And Obtaining

Every weapon uses a shapeless crafting recipe: combine the aspect's elemental material with the weapon form's core item in any arrangement on a crafting table. No specific grid pattern is required.

General formula:

Elemental Material + Weapon-Form Core → Aspect Form Weapon

Example combinations:

The same pattern extends to all 100 combinations. Refer to the Hundredfold Arsenal creative tab for a full in-game listing.

Abilities And Mechanics

Passive On-Hit Effects

Every weapon automatically applies its aspect's effect when it damages an entity. The exact strength and area of the effect is tuned by the weapon's form — for example, a Scythe's wide-sweep style extends the area of Ember's heat burst, while a Dagger's fast attack rate makes Shadow's health steal more frequent.

Right-Click Specials

Right-clicking with any Hundredfold Arsenal weapon activates the aspect's special ability. Specials go on cooldown after use and may consume a small amount of durability. Visual particles accompany most specials. Effects include:

• Crowd control: Flame Ring (burning AoE), Ice Guard (slow pulse), Tide Push (knockback), Void Pulse (pull + damage), Solar Flare (blind + burn)
• Movement: Storm Dash (forward launch), Shadow Step (blink + invisibility)
• Buffs: Ice Guard (resistance), Crystal Ward (absorption), Echo Rally (speed)
• Healing: Grove Mend (instant heal + regeneration)

The form modifies the cooldown duration, area of effect radius, and power of the special — a Staff special tends to be broader and more powerful while a Dagger special is quicker but more limited.

Progression And Strategy

Early game (coal, copper, emerald): Shadow, Storm, and Verdant weapons are craftable as soon as you have basic iron tools. Shadow's health-stealing passive and Grove Mend healing make Verdant weapons strong for solo survival. Storm Dash provides early mobility.

Mid game (glowstone, prismarine, amethyst, ender pearls): Solar, Tidal, Crystal, and Void weapons require Nether or ocean exploration. Solar weapons are especially effective against undead. Void weapons' wither effect and Void Pulse pull combo are strong for crowd control.

Mod-ore tier (Ember, Frost): Mining Ember Ore and Frost Ore unlocks the two aspects with dedicated ores. Their weapons offer the deepest crafting investment in survival and use the Vanilla Mace or Shears as their Mace and Dagger cores, suggesting high-impact playstyles.

Echo weapons (using echo shards from Deep Dark) scale well in group fights thanks to echo-strike bonus damage stacking with repeated hits.

Loadout building:

• Melee brawler: Ember or Void Mace/Hammer for heavy on-hit pressure.
• Skirmisher: Shadow or Storm Dagger/Rapier for fast hit-and-run with mobility specials.
• Support/utility: Verdant or Crystal Staff for healing and ward abilities.
• Ranged: Any elemental Bow for on-hit effects at range.
• Tank: Frost or Crystal Axe/Blade for slowing enemies and gaining resistance/absorption shields.

Durability scales with both aspect and form (higher aspect index and heavier forms last longer), so plan repairs for fast-swinging Dagger builds especially.
