Totem Duelmaster

Quickstart

1. Open your inventory/creative menu and find the three PvP Training Bot Spawn Eggs: Easy, Medium, and Hard.
2. Use a spawn egg to summon a training bot in front of you.
3. Draw your weapon and attack — the bot will fight back with a sword and bow, moving much faster than a normal mob.
4. Watch its health bar. When it drops low, the bot may flash a Totem of Undying in its off-hand and heal itself back up — treat this like a real duel against a totem-using PvP opponent.
5. Right-click (or use the "Inspect" interact action) on a bot to check its name and current totem charge count.
6. Defeat a bot to collect combat loot: arrows, totems of undying, and its armor/weapon set.

Overview

Totem Duelmaster turns your world into a personal PvP training ground. It adds three tiers of humanoid combat bots that fight like skilled players — dodging in and out of melee and ranged attacks, wearing tiered armor, and even using Totems of Undying to cheat death mid-fight. They move noticeably faster than normal mobs, making them great practice for real player-vs-player combat timing and totem-popping reactions.

What It Adds

All three bots share the same core abilities:

• Carry a bow and switch between ranged and melee combat depending on distance to their target.
• Periodically receive a Totem of Undying in their off-hand.
• Automatically consume their totem when health drops critically low, healing themselves and gaining temporary regeneration, absorption, and fire resistance.
• Drop combat-relevant loot on death: totems of undying, arrows, and their full armor/weapon set.
• Can be inspected/interacted with to view their name tag, which shows remaining totem charges.

How To Use

• Spawning: Use any of the three spawn eggs on the ground or on a mob to summon that bot. They can also be summoned with commands using their entity IDs if you prefer commands over eggs.
• Fighting: Approach a bot to trigger melee combat, or back away and it will switch to shooting arrows at range. Bots actively track and target nearby players.
• Totem Mechanic: Every so often a bot restocks a Totem of Undying in its off-hand. If you bring its health down far enough, it will consume the totem, heal a large chunk of health, and gain short buffs — simulating a real totem-canceling PvP opponent. A bot can only pop a limited number of totems before it runs out, so prolonged fights will eventually break its totem supply.
• Loot: Defeating a bot drops its armor set, weapon, spare arrows, and any totems of undying it was holding — useful for restocking your own totem supply.
• Inspecting: Interacting with a bot shows an inspection prompt with its current name/tier, letting you gauge difficulty before engaging.

Crafting And Obtaining

This mod has no crafting recipes — all bots are obtained purely through their spawn eggs (or the /summon command using their entity identifiers). Simply select the difficulty tier you want to practice against and spawn it directly.

Abilities And Mechanics

• Movement Speed: All training bots move and strafe significantly faster than normal mobs, closing distance quickly and making them feel more like a real player opponent than a typical hostile mob.
• Adaptive Combat Mode: Bots switch fluidly between ranged arrow attacks at a distance and melee sword strikes up close.
• Totem Cheating: Low health triggers automatic totem use, complete with sound and particle effects, regeneration, absorption, and brief fire resistance — forcing you to land a genuine finishing blow rather than relying on one big hit.
• Tiered Difficulty: Higher-tier bots have more health, stronger attacks, faster totem-fueled recovery, and combat buffs (strength/resistance) on the Hard tier, letting you scale the challenge as your PvP skills improve.

Progression And Strategy

Start with the Easy bot to learn its movement and attack timing with lower stakes. Move up to Medium once you're comfortable countering its totem heals and bow shots. The Hard bot is the ultimate test — netherite-armored, buffed with strength and resistance, and capable of chaining totem saves, making it ideal practice for high-level PvP duels where you must secure a decisive final hit after exhausting an opponent's totems.
