Totem Duelmaster

Quickstart

1. Open your inventory or use a command to get a spawn egg. The easiest way is Creative mode inventory search for "PvP Training Bot Spawn Egg" — there are three variants (Easy, Medium, Hard).
2. Place the spawn egg on the ground to summon a bot, or use a summon command:
   • /summon com_totem_duelmaster_m4kfp2gh:pvp_training_bot_easy
   • /summon com_totem_duelmaster_m4kfp2gh:pvp_training_bot_medium
   • /summon com_totem_duelmaster_m4kfp2gh:pvp_training_bot
3. The bot immediately targets you. Watch its nameplate for totem charge counts, then fight — when its health drops low, it will pop a totem and recover. Practice timing your burst to exhaust its charges.

Overview

Totem Duelmaster adds three tiers of intelligent PvP Training Bots designed to help you sharpen your combat skills in a controlled environment. Each bot wears tiered armor, swaps between a bow and a sword depending on range, holds totem charges that it spends to survive near-death moments, and moves fast enough to keep you on your toes. Whether you're learning basic combos, practicing totem timing, or drilling weapon transitions, there's a bot difficulty to match your current skill level.

What It Adds

Three new entities, each available via spawn egg and summon command:

Medium and Hard bots also have Strength and Resistance buffs, making them noticeably tougher and harder-hitting than they appear on paper.

How To Use

Spawning a bot: Use the appropriate spawn egg from your inventory or run one of the /summon commands listed in the Quickstart. Bots spawn in ranged mode by default and immediately seek out nearby players within 32 blocks.

Combat behavior: Each bot dynamically switches between ranged (bow) and melee (sword) combat. When you're farther away it shoots arrows; when you close to within roughly 5–6 blocks it draws its sword and chases you down. Both pursuit modes are faster than vanilla mob movement.

Inspecting a bot: Look at a bot and use the interact button (shown as "Inspect" in the action prompt) to see its current state on the nameplate.

Totem charges: The bot's nameplate always shows how many totem charges it currently holds. Charges accumulate over time — one new charge every 30 seconds, up to a maximum of 5. When the bot's health drops to its critical threshold, it automatically consumes one charge, recovering a large portion of its health and gaining Regeneration, Absorption, and Fire Resistance, accompanied by totem particles and sound. Exhaust all its charges before finishing it off.

Loot on death: Every bot drops 1–2 Totems of Undying and 8–24 arrows, giving you resources to continue training.

Abilities And Mechanics

Totem Charge System

• Bots start with zero charges and earn one every 30 seconds (up to 5 maximum).
• A totem is consumed automatically when the bot reaches critically low health — this can happen mid-combo, so be ready.
• On activation: health is restored to a set amount (Easy: 14 hearts, Medium: 21 hearts, Hard: 29 hearts), and the bot gains Regeneration IV (8 sec), Absorption II (8 sec), and Fire Resistance (40 sec).
• Totem particles and the totem sound cue play on use, giving you an audio-visual warning.

Weapon Switching

• Bots start in ranged mode with a bow.
• They switch to melee when a player is within ~5.5 blocks, drawing their tier-appropriate sword.
• They revert to ranged if no target is in range.
• Speed buffs (Speed II for Easy, Speed III for Medium/Hard) apply on spawn and when switching weapons, keeping bots aggressive.

Combat Stats

Bots can climb, path over water, and detect players up to 32 blocks away. They also retaliate if attacked from outside that range.

Progression And Strategy

Start with Easy to get comfortable with the totem consumption mechanic. The bot hits softly and has fewer charges to burn through, making it ideal for learning burst-combo timing without the pressure of high damage.

Move to Medium once you can reliably track the nameplate and time your finisher around a totem pop. Diamond armor and Speed III make positioning much more demanding, and Resistance I means raw damage output matters more.

Hard is the real test. Netherite armor, Strength II, Resistance II, and 40 HP create a scenario very close to a well-geared PvP opponent. Practice reading the totem particle/sound cue and immediately backing off to reset instead of burning your own resources into an absorption shield.

General tips:

• Watch the nameplate charge counter at all times — if it reads 0, you can safely go for the kill without a surprise totem proc.
• Use the 30-second charge interval to your advantage: engage early after a charge ticks up, then finish the bot before the next one arrives.
• Bots drop totems on death, so farming Easy bots is a low-cost way to stockpile totems before practicing against harder tiers.
• Spawn multiple bots of different difficulties to practice handling simultaneous threats and target-swapping.
