📋 About This Mod
The mod adds 3 new mechanics:
1) Weapon enchantments with the type "target on attack" will be triggered by any attack with this weapon (except for bows and crossbows)
2) Bows and crossbows enchanted "target on attack" will add their enchantment to the arrow. It will trigger when an arrow hits the target.
3) Press the special button to turn on the casting mode when attacking. In this mode, you will try to cast your current spell on any attack. In this case, the mana cost will be higher, and the chance of casting is lower.
The manacost multiplier and the penalty to the cast chance can be adjusted in the mod's settings.
