Marium’s Soulslike Weaponry All the Smites Data Pack FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Do I need both mods installed for this to work?
Yes, you need both Marium's Soulslike Weaponry and Spellblades and Such installed for the data pack to function. The data pack only adds Smite to existing weapons from Marium's mod using the spell system from Spellblades and Such.
How do I actually cast Smite when I swing a weapon?
Smite activates automatically when you attack with one of the six affected weapons—you don't need to do anything special. The holy magic triggers on hit as part of the weapon's enchantment.
Which weapons get the Smite ability?
The Silver Sword, Moonlight Shortsword, Kirkhammer, Holy Moonlight Sword, Dawnbreaker, and Bluemoon Shortsword all receive the Smite spell in this pack.
Does Smite work on all enemy types or just certain ones?
Smite is a holy magic effect, so it's most effective against undead and demonic enemies. It will still deal damage to other mobs, but the bonus is typically strongest against supernatural foes.
Can I stack Smite with other enchantments on these weapons?
Yes, Smite works alongside other enchantments you apply to the weapons, though compatibility depends on the specific enchantments and how they interact with the mod's systems.
Why isn't Smite triggering when I hit enemies?
Make sure both required mods are loaded, the data pack is enabled in your world settings, and you're using one of the six affected weapons. Also check that your game isn't in a mode that disables data packs.
Does Smite consume durability faster than normal attacks?
Smite uses the weapon's normal durability system—casting the spell doesn't drain extra durability beyond what a regular swing costs.
Can I use this data pack with other weapon or spell mods?
The pack is designed specifically for Marium's Soulslike Weaponry and Spellblades and Such, so compatibility with other mods depends on whether they conflict with those two mods' systems.
Does the Holy Moonlight Sword get a bigger Smite boost than other weapons?
The Holy Moonlight Sword is thematically aligned with holy magic, so it likely receives enhanced Smite effects compared to other weapons, though the exact scaling depends on the weapon's base stats.
Do I need to craft or enchant the weapons differently to enable Smite?
No, the Smite ability is built into these weapons by the data pack—you craft them normally and the spell is already active.
