Vanilla re-balances

Astral Arsenal changes a few vanilla features in order to balance the mod a little bit more.

Protection

Protection is completely removed in Astral Arsenal. However, in order to compensate there are the chest plate kosmogliphs, forcing you to specialize in a particular defense type.

Feather falling

Feather falling grants 20% damage reduction per level rather then 12%, this is to make up for Protection no longer existing.

Crimson Time

A new mechanic that makes it so that once your crosshair leaves an opponent, you can still hit them for 5 ticks. This is indicated by a red filter over your crosshair.

Shield

The shield has no delay between activation and starting to block things.

Using all items

Using items slows you down by a more variable amount, defaulting to 50% less movement speed (Vanilla minecraft usually changes it to 80% less movement speed for every item)

Item/Kosmogliph	Movement speed penalty
Tome of Hexes	90%
Shield	70%
Riptide Trident	70%
Deep wounds	60%
Drinking/eating	60%
Bow	50%
Crossbow	50%
Trident	50%
Mace	30%
Nailcannon	20%
Astral Slash	0%
Parry	0%
Any non-specified	50%

Arrows of Harming

Deal 0 magic damage if the arrow deals less then 3 damage.

Now deals 2 damage per level instead of dealing ((6 * amplifier) - ArrowDamage) magic damage.

Power

Reduced the damage bonus power grants by 50%

Arrows

All damage from arrows (not including extra magic damage from Harming) deals 1.5x damage to non-players. This is to compensate for the power nerf.

Projectiles

This list contains projectiles and similar things.

Effects

Astral Arsenal adds a lot of effects.
