Discover an exciting enhancement to the classic shulk origin in Minecraft with the Reworked Shulk Origin datapack.
Overview of the Reworked Shulk Origin
This datapack serves as an add-on for the well-loved Origins mod created by Apace, specifically refining the default Shulk origin featured within it. This modification is part of a larger initiative where I aim to enhance all the original origins. Stay tuned for more updates! If you enjoy this one, don’t miss out on my revamped Blazeborn Origin.
Additionally, this origin includes a resource pack that focuses on the gravity gauntlet, though it’s currently still a work in progress.
Key Abilities
- Shulker Inventory: Enjoy an additional inventory that remains intact even after death, expanded to 27 slots instead of the original 9. [Primary]
- Sturdy Skin: Your skin offers natural armor even when not wearing gear, providing an additional 10 armor points, an upgrade from the previous 8.
- Strong Arms: Capable of breaking natural stone without a pickaxe, this ability remains the same as before.
- Large Appetite: You have a higher caloric requirement, necessitating more frequent eating compared to others. This aspect remains unchanged.
- Clammy Hands: The unique structure of your hands makes it impossible for you to operate a bow or shield.
- Heavy Hitter: Your powerful arms deal greater damage but slow your recovery speed, reducing attack speed by about 20% while providing an additional 3 hearts of damage.
- Teleport: Similar to shulkers, you can teleport short distances (up to 9 blocks), activated with a sneak right-click while looking at a block.
- Dense: Your dense body causes you to sink straight down in water, preventing you from swimming.
- Duplicate: When your health drops below 75%, there’s a chance to spawn a friendly shulker upon taking damage.
- Fire Shulker Bullets: Like your shulker counterparts, you can launch homing bullets that levitate enemies, as long as your target is within 64 blocks. While equipped with the gravity gauntlet, hold sneak and the power key to use this ability. [Secondary]
- Shulker Neutrality: Other shulkers consider you one of their own, meaning they won’t attack you unless you provoke them.
- Grounded: When sneaking, you hold your ground, taking no knockback from attacks.
- Hardened Shell: You can enclose yourself in your shell to gain significant resistance against physical damage, immunity to arrows, and no knockback. Your shell can withstand 14 hits, tracked by a bar on your HUD, and repairs itself when you hold shift and remain still. While your shell is closed, you cannot interact with the environment or shoot shulker bullets, but you can still eat and teleport.
- Shell Smash: You can break your hardened shell intentionally. During this phase, you gain substantial boosts in speed and attack speed, counteracting the heavy hitter penalty, and can swim without sinking. However, be wary: you lose your armor bonus, take extra damage, and cannot close your shell until the effect wears off.
- Stick to Walls: As a shulk-like entity, when sneaking, you have the ability to adhere to walls.
- Gravity Gauntlet: Harness the potent force of the overworld void to create the gravity gauntlet, a formidable weapon that can pull in entities and unleash a devastating black hole. To craft this item, you must be taking damage from the void. Gather the necessary ingredients and follow the crafting method: 64 shulker shells –> 64 crying obsidian = Compressed Reinforced Crying Obsidian, 64 end crystals –> 1 nether star = Empowered Nether Star, and finally combine it with the Compressed Reinforced Crying Obsidian.
