Accessories - JPANv2/UnuBattleRods GitHub Wiki

Types of Accessories

Accessories in this mod can fit into several broad (and not so broad) groups:

Fishing Knives

These accessories are kinda like a sub-weapon to protect you from physical damage. On a small range around you, any enemy that enters will be struck for some damage and receive knockback away from you. The knives have a cooldown period before being ready to strike again. Late-game knives also inflict a debuff on those enemies. Damage dealt to the enemy is doubled if it is stuck on one of your bobbers, rewarding you for playing it close to your targets.

There are currently 4 knives in this mod:

https://github.com/JPANv2/UnuBattleRods/blob/master/Items/Accessories/Knives/WoodenFishingKnife.png Wooden Fishing Knife

The earliest available knife, made from 18 iron and 20 wood at the workbench.
It has 15 base damage and deals it every 2 seconds.
Its range is the smallest of the four.
Don't rule it out just because it's weak, short ranged and very early game. This knife is capable of killing Servants of Cthulhu in one strike, making expert mode Eye of Cthulhu doable in early game, and also kills bees in two hits, greatly simplifying the Queen Bee fight.

https://github.com/JPANv2/UnuBattleRods/blob/master/Items/Accessories/Knives/FishingKnife.png Professional Fishing Knife

Upgrade to the Wooden Fishing Knife, made from the previous knife, 10 cobalt/palladium and 6 Star Mix at the Tinkerer's Workbench.
It has 40 base damage and deals it every second.
It has a slightly larger range than the previous knife.

https://github.com/JPANv2/UnuBattleRods/blob/master/Items/Accessories/Knives/BlazingFishingKnife.png Blazing Fishing Knife

Upgrade to the Professional Fishing Knife, made from the previous knife and 3 Energy Amalgamate at the Tinkerer's Workbench.
It has 80 base damage and deals it every second.
It has the same range as the previous knife.
It Inflicts the Solar Fire debuff on every hit, causing trailing damage between strikes.

https://github.com/JPANv2/UnuBattleRods/blob/master/Items/Accessories/Knives/FractaliteFishingKnife.png Fractalite Fishing Knife

The last and strongest fishing knife, made from the previous knife and 3 Fractalite Bars at the Tinkerer's Workbench.
It has 120 base damage and deals it twice per second.
It has the double the range from the previous knife.
It Inflicts the Frost Fire debuff on every hit, causing trailing damage between strikes.

Lures

Accessories that modify the amount of bobbers shot by your battlerod. Remember that damage is distributed equally between bobbers, so the more you have, the smaller their individual damage. Only one of them can be equipped at a time. As of v 1.2 there are two recipes available for building most lures, with the costlier one being the default recipe. It contains:

https://github.com/JPANv2/UnuBattleRods/blob/master/Items/Accessories/Lures/Omnilure.png Omnilure

Forces your battlerod to shoot only one bobber, but increases its damage by 15%.
Crafted with 25 cobweb, 10 gold/platinum bars and a hook at the Tinkerer's Workbench.
Very useful against large, health-rich enemies such as bosses.

https://github.com/JPANv2/UnuBattleRods/blob/master/Items/Accessories/Lures/ExtraLure.png Extra Lure

Increases your bobbers by one.
Crafted with 25 cobweb and a hook at the Workbench.
Useful against multiple smaller enemies, as one extra lure does not dilute the damage too much and allows you (with a bit of practice) to hit two enemies at once.

https://github.com/JPANv2/UnuBattleRods/blob/master/Items/Accessories/Lures/DoubleLure.png Double Lure

Increases your bobbers by two.
Crafted with two extra lures and 10 cobweb at the Workbench.
Still useful against multiple smaller enemies, allows you (with a bit of practice) to hit three enemies at once.

https://github.com/JPANv2/UnuBattleRods/blob/master/Items/Accessories/Lures/QuadLure.png Quad Lure

Increases your bobbers by four.
With Harder Lures enabled, it is crafted with two double lures, 25 Cobweb and 6 Star Mix.
Formerly it was crafted with two double lures and 10 cobweb at the Workbench.
Still useful against multiple smaller enemies, although it would be very hard to hit 5 enemies at once.

https://github.com/JPANv2/UnuBattleRods/blob/master/Items/Accessories/Lures/OctoLure.png Octo Lure

Increases your bobbers by eight.
With Harder Lures enabled, it is crafted with two quad lures, 25 Cobweb and 4 Energy Amalgamate.
Formerly it was crafted with two quad lures and 10 cobweb at the Tinkerer's Workbench.
Limit of useful against multiple smaller enemies, some late game fishing rods still can handle the diluted damage, but more than that it's probably not worth it (for fighting, that is).

https://github.com/JPANv2/UnuBattleRods/blob/master/Items/Accessories/Lures/BoxOfLures.png Box of Lures

Increases your bobbers by sixteen.
With Harder Lures enabled, it is crafted with two octo lures, 25 Cobweb, 8 Energy Amalgamate and 5 Luminite Bars.
Formerly it was crafted with two octo lures, 10 cobweb and 5 mythril/orichalcum at the Tinkerer's Workbench.
This and the next lure are mainly for Fishing.

https://github.com/JPANv2/UnuBattleRods/blob/master/Items/Accessories/Lures/BoxOfCountlessLures.png Box of Countless Lures

Increases your bobbers by thirty-two.
With Harder Lures enabled, it is crafted with two boxes of lures, 25 Cobweb and 12 Fractalite Bars.
Formerly it was crafted with two boxes of lures, 10 cobweb and 5 Chlorophyte at the Tinkerer's Workbench.
This + Stardust Battlerod is the maximum number of bobbers you can have in this version of the mod.

Metronomes

These accessories change the rate between your bob speed and damage. Fast Metronomes increase bob speed in exchange for base damage, while Slow Metronomes decrease bob speed and increase base damage. Any Metronome can be freely converted to its opposite by crafting it at a table.

https://github.com/JPANv2/UnuBattleRods/blob/master/Items/Accessories/Metronomes/SlowMetronome.png Slow/Fast Metronome https://github.com/JPANv2/UnuBattleRods/blob/master/Items/Accessories/Metronomes/FastMetronome.png

Shafts

Accessories meant to redirect your damage to somewhere else, or try and eliminate it entirely. Composed of two families: The Mana Shield family provides damage reduction at the cost of mana, and the Projectile Canceler shaft gives a 30% chance to completely avoid any incoming (hostile) projectile. Only one can be equipped at a time.

https://github.com/JPANv2/UnuBattleRods/blob/master/Items/Accessories/Shafts/ManaShieldShaft.png Mana Shield Shaft

15% damage is deducted from your mana instead.
Crafted with 15 Demonite/Crimtane, 10 Star Mix and 3 Mana Crystals at a Tinkerer's Workbench.
Damage is deducted from mana while you have enough mana. If not, it will absorb as much damage into mana as it can.
Mana deduction takes into account defense, but not endurance, so value may be a little higher than expected.

30% damage is deducted from your mana instead.
