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

Diamond, Emerald, Coal, Redstone, and Lapis drop as normal. XP is still awarded.

Configuration

legendary-items:
  master-pickaxe:
    enabled: true
    auto-smelt: true
    double-drop-chance: 0.5   # 50%
    cooldown-ms: 1000

Titan Axe

Base item: Netherite Axe

Abilities: Bonus combat damage + fells entire trees in one hit.

Enchantments: Efficiency VI · Sharpness V · Unbreaking V · Mending

How it works

Combat mode — hits entities for +3 bonus damage. 4 second cooldown.

Tree felling — breaking any log breaks the entire connected tree (up to 50 logs). Leaves decay shortly after. 6 second cooldown.

The two cooldowns are independent.

Configuration

legendary-items:
  titan-axe:
    enabled: true
    bonus-damage: 3.0
    tree-felling: true
    combat-cooldown-ms: 4000
    tree-cooldown-ms: 6000

Void Shovel

Base item: Netherite Shovel

Ability: 3×3 area excavation with auto-collect.

Enchantments: Efficiency VII · Unbreaking V · Mending · Silk Touch

How it works

Hold Shift and break a diggable block to excavate a 3×3 area. All drops go directly into your inventory. Works on: dirt, grass, sand, gravel, clay, soul sand, soul soil, concrete powder, and farmland.

Configuration

legendary-items:
  void-shovel:
    enabled: true
    area-size: 3          # NxN
    auto-collect: true
    cooldown-ms: 5000

Storm Hammer

Base item: Netherite Axe

Ability: Bonus damage + lightning strike + area shockwave.

Enchantments: Sharpness VI · Unbreaking V · Mending · Knockback III

How it works

On hit:

  1. Deals +5 bonus damage to the target
  2. Strikes lightning at target location (visual)
  3. Deals 4 damage to all entities within 3 blocks (excluding the primary target and the attacker)

The shockwave respects the pvp-protection setting.

Configuration

legendary-items:
  storm-hammer:
    enabled: true
    bonus-damage: 5.0
    lightning-effect: true
    area-damage-radius: 3.0
    area-damage-amount: 4.0
    cooldown-ms: 8000

Guardian Bow

Base item: Bow

Abilities: Fires two arrows per shot. Arrows home in on nearby enemies.

Enchantments: Power VI · Infinity · Punch II · Flame · Unbreaking V · Mending

How it works

Double shot — each release fires two arrows: one straight, one at a slight offset.

Homing — arrows scan for the nearest entity within 5 blocks every tick for 3 seconds and adjust trajectory toward the target. Respects pvp-protection (skips players when enabled).

Only 1 arrow needed in inventory (Infinity).

Configuration

legendary-items:
  guardian-bow:
    enabled: true
    double-shot: true
    homing-arrows: true
    homing-range: 5.0
    cooldown-ms: 2000

Book of Ancient Wisdom

Base item: Enchanted Book

Ability: Right-click to apply max-level enchantments to all gear in your inventory.

How it works

Right-clicking applies the highest applicable enchantments to every item in your inventory:

Item type Enchantments applied
Swords / Axes Sharpness VI · Unbreaking V · Mending
Pickaxes / Shovels / Hoes Efficiency VI · Fortune IV · Unbreaking V · Mending
Helmet Protection VI · Unbreaking V · Mending · Aqua Affinity · Respiration IV
Chestplate / Leggings Protection VI · Unbreaking V · Mending
Boots Protection VI · Unbreaking V · Mending · Feather Falling V · Depth Strider III
Bows Power VI · Infinity · Unbreaking V · Mending

The book is consumed after use. Shows how many items were enchanted.

Configuration

legendary-items:
  wisdom-book:
    enabled: true

Phoenix Feather

Base item: Feather

Abilities: Auto-resurrects on fatal damage. Passive fire immunity while held.

How it works

Fire immunity (passive) — while holding the feather in your main hand, Fire Resistance is continuously applied.

Resurrection (active) — when you would die, the feather cancels death, restores full HP, removes fire, and grants:

  • Regeneration III for 10 seconds
  • Fire Resistance for 5 minutes
  • Absorption III for 2 minutes

The feather is consumed on use. One feather = one saved life. Does not protect against /kill.

Configuration

legendary-items:
  phoenix-feather:
    enabled: true
    resurrection: true
    fire-immunity-passive: true
    full-heal-on-resurrect: true
    cooldown-ms: 300000   # unused — feather is consumed

Poseidon's Trident

Base item: Trident

Abilities: Rain particle aura while held. Lightning strike + bonus damage on hit.

Enchantments: Impaling V · Loyalty III · Channeling · Unbreaking V · Mending · Riptide III

How it works

Rain aura (passive) — rain particles spawn around you while holding the trident.

Lightning on hit — striking an entity calls lightning at the impact point and deals +6 bonus lightning damage. Cooldown: 10 seconds.

Configuration

legendary-items:
  poseidon-trident:
    enabled: true
    rain-radius: 5
    lightning-on-hit: true
    lightning-damage: 6.0
    cooldown-ms: 10000

Summoner Apples

Four apple types — each can be given via /giveapple and configured to drop inside chests independently.

Item Effect
Summoner Apple (random) Spawns a random-tier chest
Common Summoner Apple Always spawns a Common chest
Rare Summoner Apple Always spawns a Rare chest
Legendary Summoner Apple Always spawns a Legendary chest

Apples do not reset the main spawn timer. Use for events, donator perks, or as rare drops.

/giveapple random    Steve 1
/giveapple legendary Steve 1

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
