Keep OffHands

Never lose your offhand item on death.

What does this mod do?

This is a quality-of-life mod that preserves the item equipped in your offhand slot (such as shields, totems, torches, or maps) when you die, instead of dropping it on the ground. Items in your hotbar, armor slots, and the rest of your inventory still drop as normal.

In vanilla Minecraft, losing everything upon death is the standard penalty. But when playing in high-difficulty modded environments (such as Scape and Run: Parasites), recovering your items can feel borderline impossible. This mod bridges that gap—keeping your crucial secondary utility or emergency item intact while maintaining the survival stakes for the rest of your items.

Why use Keep OffHands?

Save Your Totems & Shields: Ensure your vital defensive tools or utility items stay right where you need them immediately after respawning.
No More Lost Utility: Prevent your valuable offhand items from despawning or getting trapped in dangerous, heavily infested enemy territory.
Perfect Modular Setup: This mod focuses strictly on your offhand slot. For the ultimate customizable death penalty experience, we highly recommend using this alongside “Keep HotBar” and “Keep Armor” so you can decide exactly which parts of your gear stay with you.
