Tune Death Knight Spell Numbers to Match Your Own Playstyle

Beyond the Unholy buffs, this pack lets you change the numbers for the other spells in its config files. You can set your own balance, whether you want a harder or easier game.

Before You Edit

1. Back up your world, or at least make a copy of the datapack. That way you can restore it if an edit breaks something.

2. Find the datapack in your world's datapacks folder. If it is a zipped file, extract a copy to edit.

3. Browse the pack's files to find the entries for the spell you want to change. Each spell's values, such as damage, cooldown or projectile speed, are stored in these files.

Make Your Changes

1. Change one spell at a time. This makes it easy to see what each edit does.

2. Edit only the numeric values. Leave the brackets, commas and quotation marks exactly as they are, or the file may fail to load.

3. Save the file and run /reload in game. If the changes don't appear, restart the world.

4. Test the spell on a few mobs and compare it to how it felt before.

Balancing Ideas

  • Too easy? Lower damage or raise cooldowns on the Unholy spells.
  • Playing another path? Raise its numbers so it keeps up with the buffed Unholy class.
  • Running a server? Agree on the values with your group, since the datapack applies to everyone in that world.

If a spell stops working after an edit, restore your backup and try a smaller change.
