[4.5.0] — Weapon Overhaul (2026-03-16)

Changed — 4 legendary weapons redesigned

Mechanic ideas for the 4 weapons below were inspired by DemoRaHoplite Weapons by Demora ( Apache-2.0 ). Plugin page: https://modrinth.com/plugin/demorahopliteweapons

VoidStaff.java — Dual-mode system

• Before: Single sneak+click portal / click shulker logic with no UI feedback.
• After: Full mode-switching system (ported concept from DemoRaHoplite):
  • LEFT-CLICK toggles between Portal Mode and Shulker Mode.
  • Each mode has its own independent cooldown (portal 40 s, shulker 30 s).
  • Action bar shows current mode + remaining cooldown, refreshes on move and on item-switch (PlayerItemHeldEvent).
  • Cleanup on quit/death prevents state leaks.
  • StaffMode enum added for extensibility.

Excalibur.java — True invincibility

• Before: PotionEffect RESISTANCE V — very strong but not true invincibility (high enough burst damage could still kill the player).
• After: event.setCancelled(true) at EventPriority.HIGHEST (concept from DemoRaHoplite) — 100 % damage blocked for the entire 5 s duration.
  • Attacker hears IRON_GOLEM_HURT sound when a hit is deflected.
  • Reflection + projectile deflect mechanics preserved from the old version.
  • activeInvincibility map with expiry timestamp replaces potion effect check.
  • isInvincible() guard added so performDamaged() (reflect) never fires during the invincibility window.
  • Cleanup on quit/death.

WitherSickles.java — Dual-wield + throw mechanic

• Before: Only AOE on-hit wither + lifesteal. No right-click action. No amount: 2 usage in gameplay.
• After: Full dual-wield system (mechanic inspired by DemoRaHoplite):
  • Auto-equip offhand: when a player holds the Wither Sickles in main-hand, a protected copy is placed in the off-hand slot automatically.
  • Off-hand copy is locked — InventoryClickEvent, InventoryDragEvent, PlayerDropItemEvent, PlayerSwapHandItemsEvent all cancelled for it. Copy is removed when the player switches away.
  • Right-click throw (CD: 7 s, dmg 12, Wither II × duration × 2): projectile travels as a tick-based raycast with SOUL + WITCH particle trail.
  • passiveTick() shows throw cooldown in action bar while holding.
  • Legacy AOE wither + lifesteal preserved on melee hit.

LichStaff.java — Balance pass

• Before: Reload time 7 000 ms — could re-fire 4 ice-balls every 7 s, far too strong in arena PvP.
• After: Reload time raised to 30 000 ms (30 s), matching DemoRaHoplite's cooldown_seconds: 30 for the equivalent weapon. This makes ammo management meaningful — players must choose when to spend their 4 shots.
  • Between-shot cooldown tightened to 800 ms (from 500 ms) to prevent accidental double-fire while staying responsive.
  • Reload-complete message now includes countdown ("Recharging in 30s...").
  • Reload-out sound changed to WITHER_DEATH (thematic) instead of BEACON_ACTIVATE.
