🎥 Sword Textures Showcase

Experience the stunning custom textures and visual effects of all 17 legendary weapons in action!

⚔️ The Astral Arsenal — 17 Legendary Swords

Each sword is a masterpiece with unique abilities, custom particles, and devastating power. Activate abilities with /as ability while holding an Astral Sword. If you're holding two different Astral Swords, use /as <sword-name> to choose which one to trigger. Use hyphens instead of spaces, like /as skyfall-blade. Now with fully overhauled passive abilities!

Want custom keybinds? Mods like BindCommands and CommandKeys let players bind these ability commands to any key for much more flexibility and control.
