Spear Core FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I enable spears in my world?
Open the config/spearcore-common.toml file in your Minecraft folder and set enableVanillaSpears to true for standard material spears, or enableCopperSpear to true for copper spears. Restart your game for changes to take effect.
What's the difference between left-click and right-click with a spear?
Left-click performs a quick jab attack that hits nearby enemies. Right-click charges up a powerful thrust that builds momentum over three stages, dealing more damage and pushing enemies back the longer you hold it.
How does momentum damage work?
Spear damage scales with how fast you're moving toward your target—the quicker you charge at an enemy, the more damage your attack deals. This rewards aggressive, mobile combat over standing still.
Can I use spears while riding a horse or other mount?
Yes, spears work while mounted and are especially effective for charged thrusts. A fully charged thrust will knock other riders off their mounts and deal significant knockback to unmounted enemies.
What does the Lunge enchantment do?
Lunge lets you dash forward during a spear attack, closing distance to enemies or escaping danger. This enchantment pairs well with both jab and charge attacks.
Why does my spear attack sometimes miss even though I aimed at an enemy?
Spear attacks use speed-based hit detection, meaning you need to be moving toward your target to land the hit. Standing still or moving away from an enemy will cause attacks to miss.
Do spears work with other mods that add custom weapons or enchantments?
Spear Core Mod is designed as a lightweight library base, so it's built to be compatible with other mods. Custom enchantments should work, but check individual mod documentation for confirmed compatibility.
Can mod creators make their own custom spears with this mod?
Yes, Spear Core Mod provides an easy system for other modders to add custom spears with unique stats and behaviors. This is one of the mod's core features as a library base.
What materials can I make spears from?
The mod includes preset spears for wood, stone, iron, copper, gold, diamond, and netherite. Each material tier follows standard Minecraft durability and damage progression.
Do the spear animations look different in first-person and third-person view?
Yes, the mod features smooth animations optimized for both camera perspectives so spear attacks look polished whether you're playing in first-person or watching yourself in third-person.
