Moar Swords
The Swords datapack a bunch of new sword types to the game. The goal was to try and make unique items that are more than just statistical upgrades while also attempting to still fit in with the art style and general game design of Minecraft.
You can craft them in a vanilla Crafting Table. All recipes can all be found HERE, or in-game in the Recipe Guide.
The datapack REQUIRES this Library, as well as this Resource Pack.

So, what do the swords do?
- Chorus Sword: It has the ability to randomly teleport mobs hit by it.
- End Crystal Sword: It deals damage exponentially with the equation being 2^x. This means that it starts at 1 damage, then 2, then 4, 8, 16, and so on.
- Cursed Sword: It deals 13 damage but has a fairly high chance to recoil back onto the user, making it fairly dangerous to use.
- Firework Sword: It causes a random firework explosion at the mob hit by the sword. Somewhat dangerous to use, as the explosion can hit the users as well.
- SwordFish: It mostly just exists for the pun. It gives a weak poison for a short time.

- Glowstone Sword: The Glowstone sword causes targets to start glowing and be stunned for a short time.
- Honey Sword: The Honey Sword covers mobs in a thick layer of the sticky stuff, causing them to be quite slowed down for 10 seconds. The sword itself has low attack damage and slow attack speed.
- Magma Sword: This sword has the ability to sometimes set mobs on fire. Pretty similar to fire aspect, but it is an inherent trait of the material the sword is constructed of instead of an enchantment.
