More Creatures And Weapons

The Dagger is back! Daggers return as a fast, close-range weapon. They hit less hard than a sword, but you can attack twice as fast. The trade-off: a shorter reach, so you need to get up close and personal. Stats (all daggers: Attack Speed 3.2, Attack Range 2 blocks) - Wooden Dagger: 2 Attack Damage - Stone Dagger: 3 Attack Damage - Copper Dagger: 3 Attack Damage - Iron Dagger: 3 Attack Damage - Golden Dagger: 2 Attack Damage - Diamond Dagger: 4 Attack Damage - Netherite Dagger: 4 Attack Damage Daggers use the new attack range system: their reach is shorter than a sword (2 blocks instead of 3). Can be repaired in an anvil with their crafting material. Netherite Dagger is fire resistant. ## Balance – Entity Damage by Difficulty Entity damage has been adjusted per difficulty level (Easy / Normal / Hard): ### Trolls - Troll: 5 / 8 / 12 - Cave Troll: 4.5 / 7 / 10.5 - Fire Troll: 5.5 / 9 / 13.5 - Heavy Troll: 3 / 4 / 6 *(+ explosion: up to 8.5 / 15 / 22.5)* ### Land Creatures - Big Spider: 3.5 / 5 / 7.5 - Wild Boar: 2.5 / 3 / 4.5 - Lion: 4 / 6 / 9 - Tiger: 4.5 / 7 / 10.5 - Snow Leopard: 3.5 / 5 / 7.5 - Brown Bear: 4 / 6 / 9 ### Sea Creatures - Humpback Whale: 5 / 8 / 12 - Bull Shark: 4.5 / 7 / 10.5 - Blue Shark: 3.5 / 5 / 7.5 - Great White Shark: 7 / 12 / 18 ### Others - Spectre: 2.5 / 3 / 4.5 - Fire Spectre: 2.5 / 3 / 4.5 - Beastman: 5 / 8 / 12 > Note: The Heavy Troll's explosion triggers when it closes in on its target, not on every hit. Explosion damage is reduced by armor and Blast Protection. Bug Fixes - Fixed incorrect mob categories: some mobs were wrongly assigned to the MONSTER or CREATURE category. - Adjusted the Big Spider's hitbox height, now set to 0.9.

Change : - Turkey: weight 6, min group 2, max group 4 - Squirrel: weight 6, min group 1, max group 2 - Deer: weight 6, min group 2, max group 4 - Antelope: weight 8, min group 2, max group 6 - Duck: weight 6, min group 2, max group 4 - Canary: weight 8, min group 2, max group 8 Bug fix : - Removed setPersistenceRequired() from the mod's creatures.
