About this project

What does Dual Swords add?

Combat+

A Minecraft Fabric mod that adds dual wielding mechanics to the game. This is a mechanical addition to Combat+, granting any Dual Weapon (such as swords) an offhand damage bonus.
Dual Swords also implements unique mechanics that grant use-actions to Dual Weapons: parrying attacks, or lunging at your opponent.

Enchantments

All enchantments added are of the Offhand category granted by Combat+. These enchantments are universally incompatible with any Damage Enchantment and most vanilla enchantments, such as Looting, Fire Aspect, Sweeping Edge, and Knockback.

Name Description Effect Per Level Max Level Incompatibilities
Parry Grants the weapon a use-action, allowing it to block attacks and counter. Block duration. 3 All lunge-type enchantments.
Riposte Increases the damage dealt from a parry's counterattack. More damage. 3 All lunge-type enchantments and Daisho.
Deflection Increases the return speed of deflected projetiles. Higher return speed. 3 All lunge-type enchantments.
Lunge Grants the weapon a use-action, allowing the user to dash forwards and damage a target. Higher velocity. 3 All parry-type enchantments.
Thrusting Increases lunge damage. More damage. 2 All parry-type enchantments and Daisho.
Forceful Grants increased knockback to lunges. More knockback. 2 All parry-type enchantments.
