Witherfang Diamond Bow

Quickstart

1. Gather diamonds, string, and a regular bow.
2. Open a crafting table and craft the Witherfang Diamond Bow (recipe below).
3. Hold the bow and tap/hold the use button exactly as you would a normal bow — no arrows required.
4. Release to fire and watch the wither impact effects light up your target.

Overview

The Witherfang Diamond Bow is a powerful, diamond-themed ranged weapon that never breaks and never runs out of ammunition. It generates its own projectiles on every shot and hits enemies with two devastating status effects simultaneously. Its custom enchanted glint sets it apart visually in your inventory and hand.

What It Adds

How To Use

• Equip the bow in your hand like any other item.
• Hold the use button to draw the bow, then release to fire.
• Each shot spawns a projectile automatically — you do not need arrows in your inventory.
• The bow has a short cooldown (about 0.25 seconds) between shots, so fire rhythmically for maximum output.
• You can apply standard bow enchantments to it at an enchanting table (enchantability 30).

Abilities And Mechanics

Infinite Ammunition

No arrow items are consumed, ever. The bow creates its own projectile on each use.

Status Effects on Hit

Any entity struck by the bow's projectile — or by a direct melee-style hit — receives both effects at once:

Both effects are applied at level X (amplifier 9), making them extremely lethal. A critical-hit particle burst plays on impact as visual feedback.

Unbreakable

The bow has no durability. It will never degrade or disappear from use.

Enchanted Glint

The bow displays an enchanted shimmer in the inventory and in hand at all times, regardless of whether any enchantments have been applied.

Crafting And Obtaining

Craft the Witherfang Diamond Bow at any crafting table once you have diamonds, string, and a vanilla bow. The recipe unlocks automatically when you pick up a diamond or a bow.

Progression And Strategy

• Early use: The bow is most accessible once you have reached diamond-tier resources. The crafting cost is significant but the result is a permanent, no-maintenance weapon.
• Boss fights: Wither X and Poison X together drain health extremely fast. Landing a shot on the Wither or Elder Guardian will stack both effects for the full duration.
• PvP: The 110-second Wither X effect can be decisive in player combat — a single hit forces opponents to immediately seek milk.
• Enchanting: Because the bow accepts bow enchantments, adding Power, Punch, or Flame further amplifies the already devastating projectile.
• No ammo management: You can sprint, build, and fight freely without ever pausing to restock arrows, making this ideal for extended dungeon or raid encounters.
