Heirloom Sword

!Heirloom Sword

Overview and Lore

The Heirloom Sword is an ancient, semi-sentient large estoc. It is a long-forgotten family heirloom belonging to a vampire. It has been infused with magical properties, allowing it to function both as a standard melee weapon and as a flying companion controlled through telekinesis.

Acquisition

• Crafting: The item is uncraftable.
• Loot: It has a 2.5% chance to generate as loot inside chests found in Ancient Cities.

Mechanics and Controls

The weapon features two modes (Held and Flying) powered by a mana system.

Held Mode

In this mode, the weapon functions as a normal sword with a large reach.

• Warp Step (V): Teleports next to a targeted enemy within 20 blocks.
  • Cost: 10 mana
  • Cooldown: 5 seconds

Flying Mode

Pressing F summons the sword into its flying mode. The first summon activates a slow, ceremonial descent, while subsequent summons call the sword quicker. If underground, the sword entity will materialize out of mana.

• Launch (Left-Click): Throws the sword in a straight line (max ~70 blocks), damaging and piercing entities in its path. If it hits a solid block, it gets stuck in the block.
• Recall (R): Recalls the sword mid-flight or after it gets stuck in a block.
• Charge (Hold Left-Click): Drains mana to charge a faster, higher-damage launch. Can pin larger enemies to a wall behind them. !Charged Launch

• Tether Pull (Hold Left-Click while stuck): Pulls yourself toward the sword. !Thether Pull

• Guard (G): Sword enters a blocking stance in front of the player, acting as a shield and deflecting physical damage and projectiles. Releasing G with an enemy close performs a frontal counter-slash. If mana is depleted while blocking, a guard break lockout occurs. !Guarding

• Quick-Fire (V): Fires the sword as a homing projectile at the nearest hostile entity. Also targets players. !Homing Launch / Quick Fire

• Sweep (Right-Click): Spins the sword in front of the player. Moving the crosshair swings the sword to deal contact damage. Releasing right-click flings the sword based on your swing's momentum. (May also be used to mow grass, bamboo, cobwebs, sea✨ and vines). !Sweep

Mana System

• Max Mana: 100
• Regeneration: 0.6 mana per tick (12 per second)
• Regen Delay: Spending mana pauses regeneration for 20 ticks (1 second).
• Lockout: If mana reaches zero, a 40-tick (2-second) lockout is triggered, during which all telekinetic abilities are disabled.

Cosmetics and Features
