Legendary Items Guide

Nine unique items with special abilities. Found in Legendary chests, or obtained via /getlegendaryitems. All items include Mending and max-level enchantments.

All damage values, cooldowns, and abilities are configurable in config.yml. Disable the entire system with legendary-items.enabled: false, or disable individual items with their own enabled flag.


Dragon Slayer Sword

Base item: Netherite Sword

Ability: Bonus damage + ignites the target on hit.

Enchantments: Sharpness VI · Fire Aspect II · Unbreaking V · Mending · Looting IV · Sweeping Edge IV

How it works

Each hit:

  1. Deals bonus damage (default +4 hearts)
  2. Sets the target on fire (default 5 seconds)
  3. Spawns flame particles at impact

Cooldown: 3 seconds between activations.

Configuration

legendary-items:
  dragon-slayer-sword:
    enabled: true
    bonus-damage: 4.0
    fire-duration-ticks: 100   # 5 seconds
    cooldown-ms: 3000

Master Pickaxe

Base item: Netherite Pickaxe

Ability: Auto-smelts mined ores. 50% chance for double drops.

Enchantments: Efficiency VI · Fortune IV · Unbreaking V · Mending

How it works

When mining ores the block is immediately converted to its smelted product:

Ore Result
Iron Ore / Deepslate Iron Ore Iron Ingot
Gold Ore / Deepslate Gold Ore / Nether Gold Ore Gold Ingot
Copper Ore / Deepslate Copper Ore Copper Ingot
Ancient Debris Netherite Scrap

PvP Protection

When abilities.pvp-protection: true (default), legendary item abilities do not trigger against other players — no bonus damage, no fire/lightning, no AoE. Items still deal their base Minecraft damage.

Set to false to enable full PvP with legendary items.

abilities:
  pvp-protection: true

Obtaining Legendary Items

  • Legendary chests (15% spawn chance) — contain 1–3 random legendary items
  • /getlegendaryitems — admin command, gives all items plus one of each apple
  • /putintothechest — add specific items to custom loot tables

Disabling Items

/togglelegendary                        # toggle all at once
/togglelegendary dragon-slayer-sword    # toggle one item

Or in config:

legendary-items:
  enabled: false                        # disables all

dragon-slayer-sword: enabled: false # disables only this one


Troubleshooting

Item ability not activating

  1. /chestconfig get legendary-items.<item>.enabled
  2. /cooldowns — check if on cooldown
  3. /chestconfig get abilities.pvp-protection — if true, abilities skip players

Item not dropping in chests

  • The item must be enabled
  • legendary-items.enabled: true in config
  • Item drops are controlled by the custom loot system if you have it configured — check /putintothechest
