Try many bows, each with its own special powers.

Too Many Bows expands ranged combat with dozens of bows, each offering a distinct ability or effect. Examples include the Arcane Bow, which fires a three-arrow spread; the Verdant Viper, which leaves poisonous clouds; the Frostbite, which slows and freezes targets; and the Shulker’s Blast, which launches homing projectiles. Other bows let you strike enemies with lightning, pierce armor, heal yourself by draining foes, fire through blocks, or place torches where arrows land. Some special shots consume resources such as Rift Shards, Soul Fragments, experience, health, or hunger, while most bows use ordinary arrows unless their descriptions specify otherwise. The collection also includes progression-focused weapons: complete three combat trials to turn Blunted Edge into Godsplitter, or awaken the Dormant Celestial Bow into Eventide through a midnight, high-altitude ritual. Godsplitter rewards steady aim with powerful, armor-piercing perfect shots, while Eventide links targets and calls down astral lances. Worldeater is another late-game bow, crafted using the Heart of the Wyrm, which is earned through a special Ender Dragon rematch; its guided shots create a damaging dragon dive and lingering dragonfire, with kills charging an empowered attack. Loot-found trinkets can further shape bow builds: Dead Eye’s Pendant boosts critical-hit chance, Windwoven Gloves speed up drawing, Fletcher’s Talisman reduces durability loss, and the Sharpshot Ring and Stormbound Signet increase bow damage. JSON configuration lets players adjust bow behavior and effects, loot sources and chances, and accessory bonuses; selected combat settings can also be reloaded in game.
Written from Modrinth and CurseForge . How we write it
Changes the game's code in 6 areas: Mobs and their behaviorChanges 3 game code files in this area: mobs, animals, villagers, projectiles and how they move and act., World renderingChanges 2 game code files in this area: drawing the terrain, sky, clouds and weather., User interfaceChanges 2 game code files in this area: menus, screens, tooltips, the chat window and the in-game overlay., Rendering and graphicsChanges 1 game code file in this area: drawing mobs, items, particles and textures on screen., PlayerChanges 1 game code file in this area: your character: movement, abilities, hunger and controls. and Inventory and itemsChanges 1 game code file in this area: items, chests and other containers, crafting and enchanting..
Adds 68 items, 3 projectiles, 1 other entity, 2 enchantments, 19 recipes, 18 advancements, 1 loot table and 7 sounds.
Counted from the names and data files in the mod, so the list may not be complete.
Keeps all of vanilla Minecraft's textures, models and sounds.
No harmful code found
We checked its files and read their code, without running it.
Why we show this: a mod runs on your computer like any program, so harmful code in it can take your accounts or files. Our checks look for known signs of harm. They cannot prove that a file is harmless. In the grade: malware means no grade, and a Warning in a latest file for a recent Minecraft version lowers it.
We found nothing it sends
We read its code without running it: it contacts no web address while you play.
Why we show this: a mod can send things about you over the internet, like your player name or your login. Contacting an address to check for updates or download files sends nothing about you. Not in the grade: sending data can be normal for what a mod does.
No sign that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its texts, files, images, sounds and code history and found none.
No sign of AI in the game
We found no AI service, AI library or AI model file in its code.
Why we show this: some players and servers avoid projects made with AI, and AI in the game can send what you write to an online service. Not in the grade: using AI does not tell whether a project works well or is kept up to date.
