Spider Fang Dagger

Quickstart

1. Open the Creative inventory and search for Spider Fang Dagger or Cave Spider Fang Dagger. You can also use:
   • /give @s com_spider_fang_dagger_b6zknlvf:my_sword
   • /give @s com_spider_fang_dagger_b6zknlvf:cave_spider_fang_dagger
2. Equip a dagger in your main hand.
3. Look at the action bar. It shows the selected ability, its effect, and whether it is ready.
4. Use the dagger normally to cast the selected ability.
5. Sneak-use the dagger to cycle through its four abilities. Use it normally after selecting an ability to cast it.
6. Try holding the other dagger in your off-hand. Each main-hand dagger gains an additional venom effect when paired with its counterpart.

Overview

Spider Fang Dagger adds two enchantable combat daggers with different ability sets:

• Spider Fang Dagger focuses on mobility, poison, slowing enemies, and restoring health.
• Cave Spider Fang Dagger focuses on pouncing, stronger venom, stealth, and venomous attacks.

Both daggers are single-stack items, can be equipped in the off-hand, and use a live action-bar HUD while held in the main hand.

What It Adds

Both daggers count as swords for enchanting and can be enchanted using sword enchantments.

The Spider Fang Dagger can be repaired with:

• String: 10 durability
• Iron ingot: 25 durability
• Spider eye: 15 durability
• Netherite scrap: 50 durability

How To Use

Ability Controls

• Hold a dagger in your main hand to display its HUD.
• Sneak-use to select the next ability.
• Use normally to cast the selected ability.
• The HUD displays the selected ability as a number from 1/4 to 4/4, its description, its active timer, and its cooldown.
• Casting an ability starts its cooldown immediately.
• If an ability is cooling down, using it displays the remaining cooldown instead of casting it.

Dual-Dagger Venom

Equip one dagger in each hand for additional on-hit effects.

These pairing effects apply when the main-hand dagger hits an entity.

World-Unique Brewed Components

The first retained Brewed Mother's Fang and the first retained Brewed Mother's Poison Glands claim those components for the world. Later copies of an already claimed brewed component are not retained.

Craft one Spider Fang Dagger and one Cave Spider Fang Dagger before attempting to make duplicates through the survival crafting path. Each brewed component is claimed independently.

Abilities And Mechanics

Spider Fang Dagger

Cave Spider Fang Dagger

Ability areas are centered on the player when the ability is cast. Area abilities do not affect players.

Progression And Strategy

1. Gather spider eyes, fermented spider eyes, glow ink sacs, emeralds, and glass bottles to prepare the two brewed components.
2. Use the brewed components with netherite scrap and metal materials to create the daggers.
3. Start with the Spider Fang Dagger for mobility and healing through Silkstep and Brood Feast.
4. Use the Cave Spider Fang Dagger for stealth, stronger area venom, and the forward leap from Cave Pounce.
5. Cycle abilities before a fight rather than during an emergency so the HUD shows the ability you intend to cast.
6. Pair both daggers when fighting strong targets: the Spider Fang Dagger’s paralysis effect helps control enemies, while the Cave Spider Fang Dagger’s paired venom adds poison, weakness, and nausea.
7. Save long-cooldown abilities such as Brood Feast and Toxic Cascade for groups or difficult encounters.
