About Hunter's Return

From Modrinth

Add evil Hunter's mob! They hunt the animals while making a cheeky laugh...

Hunter's Return (formerly hunterillager mod)

Add the evil Hunter mob! They hunt wild animals while making a cheeky laugh...

Banner image

This mod adds a new mob, the Hunter Illager! They spawn in a new structure so keep an eye out for it! This mod doesn't only add the hunter though... (Forge version needs Bagus Lib for 10.0.1 or above!)

  • Features

Hunter Illager

These little menacing dudes live in a wooden hut that spawns in forested biomes. If he spots a player or animal, he will attack them with a bow n' arrow! When he successfully corners his enemy, he will creepily laugh...

After being sufficiently damaged, Hunters will eat food to replenish their health.

The boomerang is the Hunter's secondary weapon, which can also be crafted by the player. It can be enchanted with Bounce to become more bouncy when striking walls.

Also Hunter Love to use Mini Crossbow... Having mini crossbows on both sides will make it easier to load arrows and unleash a barrage of arrows on enemies at once.

The mini crossbow has low firepower, but it's an easy-to-use weapon for people who move around a lot.

Warning: backport and fabric port not planned also do not ask a port
