BattleWorks

⚔️ BattleWorks
31 over-engineered ways to make problems go away.

Every weapon in BattleWorks has a real ability — not just bigger numbers. Slam from the sky, blink through walls, swap places with a skeleton, or stand still in deepslate armor and let the ground fight back. All cooldowns show on a clean custom HUD above your hotbar.

🗡️ Weapons
Ability
Grappling Hook Fire a hook with a real rope — latch blocks to zip to them (fall-safe), or
yank mobs to you

Meteor Hammer Right-click in midair to crash down — damage & radius scale with fall height. No terrain damage

Shard Sword Blink up to 15 blocks to where you’re looking. 30s cooldown, fizzles safely if blocked

Stormcaller Call a real lightning bolt on whatever you’re aiming at, up to 40 blocks

Frostreaver Scythe Frost nova: freezes and heavily slows everything around you

Boomeraxe Throw it — it cleaves everything in its path and returns to your hand through walls

Graviton Staff Levitates nearby enemies, then 3 homing missiles chase each one (armor can’t help them)

Kunai Stackable throwing knives, two per second

Force Gauntlet Shockwave punch — everything in front of you goes flying

Shadow Dagger Strike from behind for an armor-piercing backstab crit

Trickster’s Scepter Swap places with any mob or player within 16 blocks

Vindicator’s Cloak Go full Johnny: Strength II + Speed for 8 seconds

🛡️ Three armor sets, three identities

Reinforced Steel — tank: tougher than netherite, huge durability… −5% speed per piece.
Skyweave — runner: +4% speed per piece, and the full set makes fall damage a myth.
Thornstone — spite: zero passive perks, but whoever hits you gets impaled by stone fangs from below.

💎 Off-hand Shards
Hold a shard in your off-hand and two powers appear on your HUD (default keys G / H). The second power only unlocks while its paired weapon is in your main hand:

Ember Shard + Meteor Hammer — fire nova / rocket yourself skyward (then slam)
Warp Shard + Shard Sword — short blink / reset the sword’s cooldown
Storm Shard + Stormcaller — 24-block radar pulse / triple lightning strike
Frost Shard + Frostreaver — icy guard / freeze one target solid at range

🧰 Utility
Prospector’s Pickaxe (vein-mines whole ore veins, Fortune-friendly) · Recall Charm (set an anchor, warp home) · Magnet Charm (drops & XP fly to you).
