Melee Headshot

This mod adds headshot and leg damage mechanics for melee attacks to Minecraft.

Upper 20% of all mobs’ hitboxes are judged as heads, and by hitting there by melee weapons (including bare hands), you deal increased damage to the target. The amount of the damage bonus depends on the original damage amount. Part of the damage bypasses resistance, armor and other defences.

Lower 40% of all mobs’ hitboxes are judged as legs, and by hitting there by melee weapons (including bare hands), slowness will be applied to the target. However, you deal reduced damage. Level and duration time of slowness effect depends on the original damage amount.

These effects work for any mobs, including modded mobs. 

This mod is the melee attack version of the ranged headshot mod by the same author.
