About this project
What does Dual Swords add?
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.
