Vanilla Armory FAQ

All seven weapons can be crafted using the same material tiers as vanilla tools—wood, stone, iron, diamond, and netherite. Use the standard crafting table with the appropriate material and follow the same recipes as you would for a regular sword or axe, but shaped for your chosen weapon type.

One-handed weapons (Battle Axe, Mace) attack faster and let you hold a shield, while two-handed weapons (Greatsword, Great Axe, Warhammer) deal more damage but swing slower and require both hands. Choose based on whether you want speed and defense or raw damage output.

Yes—the Spear has a charge-up mechanic that lets you throw it at distant targets. Hold right-click to charge, then release to throw; you can retrieve it afterward or craft a new one.

Yes, all new weapons support standard Minecraft enchantments like Sharpness, Knockback, Unbreaking, and Mending, just like vanilla tools.

The Warhammer's overhead attacks create a heavy impact that knocks back nearby enemies, making it useful for crowd control and keeping threats at distance.

The Halberd's sweeping attacks and forward thrust make it excellent for both—the reach keeps enemies away in PvE while the sweep damage helps control groups, and in PvP the range gives you a positioning advantage.

Durability works the same as vanilla tools—each hit costs durability points. Use Unbreaking enchantments to reduce durability loss, or craft higher-tier weapons (like netherite) for more durability.

Only one-handed weapons (Battle Axe and Mace) can be used with a shield; two-handed weapons and long-reach weapons require both hands and cannot be paired with shields.

Yes, all attack animations display correctly for you and other players in multiplayer servers, as long as everyone has the mod installed.

The Greatsword or Great Axe work well for high damage during ground phases, while the Spear's throwing mechanic lets you damage the dragon from range when it flies—choose based on your playstyle.
