- Armor Negation: This percentage won't decrease the total damage by defense points.
- Impact: Increases the total stun time of the hit target.
- Hit N enemies per swing: Maximum number of hittable enemies per swing.
- Weight: Shortens the stun time when hit, increases stamina consumption of skills, and decreases attack speed. Items with high attack speed are affected more.
- Stun Armor: Increases the time between stuns.
Most weapons have a special attack. To use it, fill the special attack gauge by dealing damage to any entity with HP. Special attacks are more powerful than basic and dash attacks. You can see the tooltip of a special attack by pressing the special attack tooltip key (initial setting: P).
Increases damage to every type of attack.
Increases special attack damage (50% | 67% | 75%).
Increases stun time.
- Two-handed weapons cannot be held in the offhand and disable offhand functionality.
Some weapons have different attack styles depending on what is held in the offhand. Basic attack animations and special attacks change accordingly. Try the various attack styles!
All animated attacks stun the target for a short time, including the player. You can't control your character during this time. Stun Armor and Weight points help protect yourself.
- Stun Armor & Weight: Acquired by equipping armors. Higher-value armor grants more Stun Armor points.
You can learn skills through the skill book (found in dungeon chests or dropped from hostile mobs). Skills are classified into three types:
- Dodge Skills: Consume stamina; stamina is displayed in the bottom-right corner.
- Guard Skills: Consume stamina; block attacks like shields but have a short stun time.
- Passive Skills: Automatically applied when their conditions are met.

Fabric port?
Currently, there are no immediate plans for a Fabric port due to the extensive development involved.
It may be considered in the future. -
Making different mods compatible
Achieving compatibility can be complex and may require Java knowledge.
If you are a mod developer, refer to the API Guide for detailed instructions.
Alternatively, you can explore the Epic Fight Wiki for additional guidance. -
Creating custom weapons or assigning weapon types to modded weapons
Refer to the Item Capability Guide
and the Weapon Type Editor Guide for detailed instructions. -
Patching custom modded entities to use Epic Fight animations and mechanics
Refer to the Custom Entity Datapack Guide for instructions.
For advanced cases, Java code may be necessary to fully patch an entity. -
Modded armor appears invisible or looks unusual
Epic Fight changes the player model to support more complex animations.
To make armor display correctly, a compatibility resource pack is required.
If you’re familiar with Blender or 3D modeling, check out this Epic Fight guide for detailed instructions. -
Backport the latest Epic Fight update to older Minecraft versions?
There are currently no plans to backport newer Epic Fight features to older Minecraft versions, due to the major code differences between versions and the maintenance burden it would create for developers. -
Any plans to make a Bedrock version?
Minecraft Bedrock is completely different from Java Edition. -
New Translations?
In the future, new translations will be added. Currently, only verified members can submit translations, so adding new languages takes time.

If you encounter any crashes or bugs in Epic Fight:
- Reproduce the issue in a fresh Minecraft instance with as few mods as possible.
- Generate a crash/log report using mclo.gs.
- Submit the report by sending the link along with detailed relevant information (e.g., Epic Fight version) to this GitHub repository.
⚠️ Important: Always reproduce the crash or bug with a minimal set of mods.
Sharing reports from instances with 100+ mods makes it nearly impossible to debug each mod individually due to the high volume of reports and limited resources.
Note: We only address issues and bugs that originate from Epic Fight itself.
The Epic Fight: Skill Tree is an official first-party addon developed by the Epic Fight team to replace the Skill Book Items system with a Skill Tree, providing a more RPG-focused experience.
