I'll jump straight into the point, this data pack tweaks some combat mechanics, and adds some custom weapons!

Armour Debufs
Most high-grade armour sets make you a bit slower.

• Iron Armour gives -5% speed per piece
• Diamond Armour gives -4% speed per piece
• Golden Armour gives -6% speed per piece
• Netherite Armour gives -6% speed per piece

Chainmail armour is the highest-grade armour without debufs

Chainmail Armour Crafting
Chainmail armour can now be crafted with a combination of chains and iron nuggets. The exact recipes are unlocked when the player obtains chains

Warhammers
A new kind of weapon! Available in iron, golden, diamond, and netherite variants! This is a very slow weapon, but is stronger than an axe (unenchanted netherite warhammers deal 12 damage)

The crafting recipe for a warhammer is basically a cross between an axe and a pickaxe. Netherite warhammers are created by upgrading diamond warhammers (put the smithing output in the hotbar to update it)

Warhammers can get all the enchantments that a sword can, and have another unique enchantment (elaborated on later)

Warhammers also have a special ability - Attacking something with a warhammer will 'pierce' its armour, meaning that for the next 5 seconds, the target will only have 50% of its armour points. This also works on players.

Shortswords
Another new weapon, the shortsword is very fast but also very weak. The crafting shape is 1 material above 1 stick (like a shortened sword shape). Netherite shortswords can be obtained by upgrading diamond ones.

New Enchantments
There is currently 1 new enchantment:

Bludgeoning

Application - To get on a book with bludgeoning, throw a block of obsidian and a book above an enchantment table while level 30 or higher. To upgrade a book to level 2, throw the level 1 book above an enchantment table and throw a block of obsidian on it while level 30 or higher. To apply on warhammer, hold the book in your offhand and the warhammer in mainhand. Then, update your inventory (by moving around any of the items in your inventory). Important - Once a warhammer is given Bludgeoning I, it cannot be upgraded to level 2 or removed.

Usage - When you strike with a warhammer that has bludgeoning, it will result in a powerful attack that deals splash damage and stuns mobs in the area of effect, giving slowness and nausea for a short while. This ability has a 10 second cooldown (attacking before the cooldown ends does not affect the cooldown}. However, this will also hurt the user a bit.
