Choose the Right Festering Strike Weapon

Weapon Options

Three weapon types carry Festering Strike in this data pack:

Toxic Longsword — A dedicated Simply Swords weapon with the spell built in. Offers balanced damage and reach for general combat.

Tainted Relic — A specialized weapon that receives the Festering Strike upgrade through this pack, combining its unique properties with the magic effect.

Scythes — All scythe variants gain Festering Strike, including iron, gold, diamond, netherite, and runic tiers. Scythes provide wider attack arcs and are excellent for crowd control.

Selecting Your Weapon

Choose based on your combat style: use the Toxic Longsword for straightforward melee combat, pick the Tainted Relic if you want its specific mechanics, or grab a scythe for sweeping attacks against groups. Higher-tier scythes (diamond, netherite, runic) deal more base damage, so upgrade when possible for stronger Festering Strike hits.
