E.G.O Weapons: Project Moon Combat Comes to Minecraft
Be it a feather of a Wing, a rat of the backstreets, a Fixer of the Nest, or a member of the Syndicates, they all endure the cruelty of the city. That is the philosophy behind E.G.O Weapons, an ambitious add-on that drags the brutal, stylish combat of Project Moon's games straight into your blocky world. If you have ever wanted to swing a blade that feels like it came out of Limbus Company, Library of Ruina, or Lobotomy Corporation, this mod was built with you in mind.
Rather than bolting a few new swords onto the vanilla crafting table, E.G.O Weapons for Minecraft rebuilds combat around layered mechanics, resource management, and risk-reward decision making. The result is a system that rewards timing and understanding over simply spamming left click.
What Makes E.G.O Weapons Stand Out
The core idea is simple: adapt Project Moon's mechanics using the Epic Fight mod as a foundation. Everything else flows from there. Newly added weapons and armor each carry an ability card, activated through special armor and weapon ability keybinds, letting you unleash signature skills mid-fight.
Light, Emotion Levels, and Sanity
Players now manage a combat resource called Light, which fuels abilities and enhances certain skills. It regenerates passively and is capped by your attribute system. To raise that cap, you increase your Emotion Level through combat actions such as attacking and parrying, though the stat decays over time if you slack off.
Sanity adds another layer of tension. This stat regenerates passively but can be drained by status effects like sinking. Hit zero and you enter a Panic state, stunned for its full duration. Suddenly, every fight has a psychological cost, not just a health bar.
Stagger and Damage Types
A dedicated Stagger bar decreases when you take damage or block, and increases when you parry or use certain skills. Let it empty and the entity becomes Staggered: incoming damage doubles and the player is stunned. Attacks are also categorized into Slash, Pierce, and Blunt, alongside Red, White, Black, and Pale damage types, with armor sets offering different resistances to each. Choosing the right kit against the right enemy genuinely matters.
Status Effects and Complex Kits
Certain weapons inflict status effects modeled on Limbus Company's Count and Potency system. Most effects decay on a fifteen-second cycle, while some vanish entirely once that window closes, such as Offense Level Up. The mod also ships a wide variety of weapons, many based on Fixer gear or E.G.O Weapons, each packed with mechanics involving status effects and team synergy. Mixing armor sets and weapons leads to surprisingly deep builds.
Smaller touches round out the experience: detailed multi-page item descriptions navigated with the arrow keys, dialogue bubbles that appear during attacks or at health thresholds, and a blood system where damage gradually accumulates on your character and only fades with time. Parrying has been adjusted too, so high-impact attacks can still stun you without enough Sanity, and spamming parries carries penalties.
If you would rather skip the manual setup, the foxygame.net launcher offers a one-click install that drops E.G.O Weapons into a ready-made profile, so you can jump straight into testing builds instead of wrestling with folders.
Supported Versions and Loaders
E.G.O Weapons is built for the Forge loader, with the mod's primary target being Minecraft 1.16.5. A port to 1.18.2 is planned in the near future, but the developer has stated there are no plans to push past that version for now. Because the add-on depends on Epic Fight, you will need that mod installed alongside it for abilities and animations to function correctly.
How to Install E.G.O Weapons
- Install the correct version of Minecraft Forge for your chosen game version.
- Place the Epic Fight mod file into your mods folder, since E.G.O Weapons relies on it.
- Download E.G.O Weapons and drop the file into the same mods directory.
- Launch the game through your Forge profile and confirm both mods load.
- Check the keybind menu and assign your weapon and armor ability keys before your first fight.
Once in game, take time to read the multi-page item descriptions. They explain precise mechanics that are easy to miss, and status descriptions can be viewed by holding shift. A wiki is planned for more detailed command explanations.
Final Thoughts
E.G.O Weapons is not a casual add-on. It is a full combat overhaul for players who enjoy depth, experimentation, and the grim atmosphere of the City. Between Light management, Sanity pressure, Stagger windows, and damage type matchups, there is a lot to master, and the planned updates promise even more kits down the road. If you want Minecraft combat to feel dangerous again, this mod delivers exactly that.
