PnK Ragers Staff - Wabbit0101/mods_hoardercraft GitHub Wiki
As of: mc1.12.2-4.9 (Jun-2019)
A Ragers Staff is the big pink panic button weapon of the mod. You use a staff when you're surrounded by seemingly endless waves of hostile entities all keen to squish you dead and there are no paths of escape. Find some solid ground (though it works in water too), and right-click the staff; it will blow away any hostiles within a 17x17 square area from where you stand (so +/- 8 blocks along x and z axis). Now run, run away! Or hide, or whatever.
Mawh Powah!
The Ragers Staff really does "blow away" the surrounding mobs, as in it tosses them high into the air where they soon die and rain down lovely experience orbs confetti and loot. And you can expand the affected area by enchanting your staff with the Power enchantment: for each enchantment level, the affected area is expanded by two(2) blocks; so for example, a Power III enchant will affect a 29x29 square with you at its center. The maximum affectable area is 33x33 or +/- 16 blocks along x/z axis from where you stand, or same as the Power IV enchant.
Repair
To repair a Ragers Staff you can use a Pinkly Rod in a standard anvil. Without repair, you can use a ragers staff 8 times before it breaks.
If you're desperate to preserve your staff's durability, you can sneak + right-click to just "push back" the surrounding mobs without causing them any direct damage. This action does not damage your staff and is pretty effective at quickly giving you some manuvering room.
