Sunforged Zenith

Quickstart

1. Find a Warden, or summon one with:

   /summon minecraft:warden
   

2. Defeat the Warden while playing as the credited attacker. The reward is:
   • Solar Helmet
   • Solar Chestplate
   • Solar Leggings
   • Solar Boots
   • Zenith
3. Equip all four Solar armor pieces.
4. Place the Zenith in your main hand and use it. Using the item launches twelve spectral swords that seek hostile mobs, pass through terrain, and return to you.

For a quick Creative-mode test, you can obtain the items directly:

Overview

Sunforged Zenith adds a Warden-slayer reward consisting of a complete Solar armor set and the Zenith, a powerful returning-sword weapon.

The armor grants exceptional protection when the complete set is worn, while the Zenith attacks groups of hostile mobs with twelve temporary blades.

What It Adds

How To Use

Solar Armor

Equip the Solar items in their normal armor slots:

• Solar Helmet in the head slot
• Solar Chestplate in the chest slot
• Solar Leggings in the legs slot
• Solar Boots in the feet slot

The set’s abilities activate only when all four pieces are equipped at the same time. Wearing only part of the set does not grant its special effects.

Zenith

Hold the Zenith in your main hand and use it. The attack is triggered by using the item rather than by making a normal melee attack.

Each activation:

• Summons twelve Zenith blades around you.
• Launches them in the direction you are looking.
• Allows them to seek nearby hostile mobs.
• Lets them pass through blocks and terrain.
• Sends them outward before they curve around and return.
• Plays a magical sword sound and leaves a particle trail.

The Zenith has a brief cooldown between activations. Blades are temporary projectiles and cannot be picked up.

Abilities And Mechanics

Solar Set Bonuses

With the full Solar set equipped, you gain:

• Immunity to lava damage.
• Immunity to fire-based damage.
• Immunity to dragon breath damage.
• Fire extinguishing while the set is worn.
• The ability to fly using normal Minecraft flight controls.

The flight ability is granted while all four pieces are equipped and is removed when any piece is taken off. If you are airborne when the complete set is removed, flight is stopped.

Returning Blades

The Zenith’s twelve blades are spectral projectiles rather than dropped items. They ignore terrain, so walls and other blocks do not stop their flight.

Blades automatically target nearby hostile mobs within 64 blocks of you. They can hit enemies while traveling outward and again on their return path, with a short delay before the same blade can hit the same target again. After traveling up to roughly 80 blocks, the blades curve behind you and return before disappearing.

The blades attack hostile mobs only. Players, passive creatures, and other non-hostile living entities are not targeted.

Crafting And Obtaining

The Solar armor and Zenith are awarded when a Warden is killed and the death is credited to a player. The complete reward contains all four armor pieces and one Zenith.

Rewards are placed directly into the killer’s inventory when possible. If the inventory does not have enough room, the remaining items drop at the Warden’s death location.

The mod provides no crafting recipes for these items. They can be obtained through the Warden reward or with commands:

Progression And Strategy

1. Prepare for the Warden before attempting to claim the reward.
2. Keep enough inventory space for five items so the complete reward is collected safely.
3. Equip the entire Solar set immediately to activate fire protection and flight.
4. Use the Zenith from a distance and aim toward groups of hostile mobs.
5. Use walls and terrain to your advantage when positioning, since the Zenith’s blades can pass through blocks.
6. Watch the return path: blades curve behind you before disappearing, allowing them to attack enemies on both passes.
