Description
This Data Pack adds a new craftable weapon to the game: Rapiers!
These act as a hybrid between a sword and a spear, allowing for quick close-range strikes, or slower long-range pokes
SHOWCASE
MECHANICS
The Rapier has a faster attack speed, but lower attack damage than a Sword
FINESSE STACKS
Dealing damage to enemies will grant you Finesse Stacks, increasing your attack range, attack damage and movement speed
Finesse Stacks max out at 5
SWING MODE
Default mode of attack
This is a standard sword swing which can hit multiple enemies with sweeping attacks
THRUST MODE
Activated by holding sprint or crouch
Attack Speed is lowered
Attack Damage and Attack Range is increased
Attacks will use Spear Melee Mechanics instead
POWER THRUST MODE
Activated by holding sprint or crouch within 15 ticks after landing a Swing attack
Thrust Attack Speed Penalty is removed
Power Thrusts deal extra damage than a normal Thrust and deal extra knockback, great for setting up a Dash Attack!
Power Thrust lasts until the 15 tick timer runs out OR until you land a hit, whichever is first
DASH MODE
Right-Clicking with any amount of Finesse Stacks will hold out the rapier in front of you like a spear and launch you forward
Launch Velocity Increases with each Finesse Stack that you have
Dash attacks at 5 Finesse Stacks Bypass ALL Armor/Defenses and Resistance Effects!
The damage of a Dash Attack Depends on your Attack Damage and Movement Speed!
- Strength and Speed Potions help with getting extra damage
- Sprinting before Dashing will also increase Dash Damage
GUARDING
Rapiers can also block Melee Attacks when you don't have Finesse Stacks, reducing incoming damage by 40% (Projectiles, Explosions, etc are unaffected)
With correct combos and attack chains, you can swiftly slay any foe in your path!
