Fish's Undead Rising Mod Wiki

Fish's Undead Rising is a major content mod for Minecraft versions 1.12.2 and 1.16.5 that focuses on expanding the game's bestiary with challenging new mobs. The mod introduces a variety of undead variants, mythical beasts, and unique bosses, each with distinct behaviors, stats, and loot. By defeating these creatures, players can obtain rare materials to craft powerful weapons, specialized armor sets, and magical artifacts.

Key features include:

• New Bosses and Mini-Bosses: Challenging encounters like the Skeleton King and Sludge Lord.
• Taming Mechanics: Several mobs can be tamed and used as companions or mounts.
• Unique Equipment: Weapons that ignore armor, tools with special properties, and armor sets with powerful bonuses.
• Dynamic Spawning: Mobs are integrated into specific biomes and structures, such as Desert Tombs and Small Cemeteries.

The mod adds over 20 new entities, categorized by their temperament and role in the world.

Bosses

Skeleton King

The Skeleton King is the primary boss of the mod. He is a formidable undead warrior capable of summoning reinforcements and teleporting to surprise his enemies.

• Summoning: Place a Skeleton Skull on the ground in a Desert biome and right-click it with a Cursed King's Crown.
• Behavior: He can summon Sand Wraiths and Forsakens, use a "Death Coil" attack, and teleport behind players.

Hostile Mobs

Sludge Lord

A massive, hulking beast found in Swamps. It attacks by spitting sludge bombs that blind and slow its targets.

• Abilities: Summons Lil' Sludges to assist in combat. It is weak to fire.

Wendigo (Ithaqua)

A terrifying predator that stalks Taiga biomes. It is known for its incredible speed and pouncing attacks.

• Behavior: Releases a howl before pouncing from a distance. Inflicts Hunger V on contact.

Undertaker

A mysterious figure that wanders the Overworld, summoning armies of the dead to siege villages.

• Abilities: Summons Unburied (zombie-like minions) until it is defeated.

Other Hostile Mobs

• Avaton: Found in Savannas; drops Cursed Fabric and Ectoplasm.
• Banshee: Found in Mountains; uses a scream attack that inflicts Fear.

Passive & Neutral Mobs

Raven / Seagull

Found in Taigas and Dark Forests (Ravens) or Beaches (Seagulls). They are neutral but can be tamed.

• Taming: Feed them Spider Eyes or Fermented Spider Eyes.
• Utility: Once tamed, they can mount the player's head, reducing fall speed and negating fall damage.

Mimicrab

A hermit crab that disguises itself as a chest in structures like Mineshafts.

• Taming: Feed it Ptera Wings or Canned Rotten Meat.
• Utility: Acts as a mobile chest with 27 inventory slots. Can be upgraded to an Ender Crab using an Eye of Ender.

The materials dropped by mobs are used to create high-tier gear with unique mechanics.

Weapons

Armor Sets

• Swine Armor: Crafted from Plagued Hide. Wearing the full set makes Undead Swine neutral and grants immunity to Poison.
• Molten Armor: Crafted from Molten Meat and Hearts. Grants fire resistance and increases damage dealt to burning mobs by 20%.
• Famine Armor: Grants a damage bonus when the player is under the Hunger effect. The full set prevents eating but heals the player upon killing enemies.

Magical Artifacts

• Undying Heart: A rare material used to craft the Golden Heart (provides Regeneration and repairs gear) or to summon a Tame Scarecrow.
• Acidic Heart: Used to apply the Corrosive enchantment to weapons via an anvil.
• Crown of Rule: Dropped by the Skeleton King; grants the wearer authority over certain undead mobs.

Taming Guide

Many creatures in the mod can be befriended using specific items:

• Scarecrow: Place a Jack o' Lantern on two Hay Bales and right-click with an Undying Heart.
• Salamander: Feed wild Nether Salamanders Canned Beef.
• Mugma: Apply a Potion of Molten Lava to a Cow that has the Fire Resistance effect.
• Piranha/Swarmer: Can be captured in a bucket and released as pets.

Evolution

Parasites have a unique lifecycle. If a Jungle Parasite survives long enough or infects a host, it has a chance to form a Vespa Cocoon, which eventually hatches into a hostile or tameable Vespa.

Block Properties

• Sludge Pile: A thin, carpet-like block. Stepping on it provides a 30% movement speed boost.
• Diseased Hay Bale: Used in the construction of Scarecrows and as a decorative block.

Configuration

The mod is highly configurable via the fishs_undead_rising.cfg file. Players can adjust:

• Spawn Rates: Frequency of mob appearances in the world.
• Mob Stats: Health and damage values for all entities.
• Loot Tables: Drop rates for rare items like Undying Hearts.
• Sunscreen: Whether certain undead mobs burn in sunlight.

While most recipes follow standard crafting patterns, some require specialized materials.

Note: It is highly recommended to use JEI (Just Enough Items) to view all specific crafting and anvil recipes in-game.
