Shifted Lens
Shifted Lens aims to improve many of Minecraft's mobs with new mechanics and features, while also introducing entirely new mobs and other miscellaneous additions.
New Mobs
Baitfish:
Spoiler
Baitfish are tiny fish that spawn in massive shoals. They can be cooked and eaten or bucketed.
Flying Fish:
Spoiler
Flying fish can be found in oceans in schools. Occasionally they will go to the surface and glide along the water. When hurt, all nearby flying fish will go to the surface to try and glide away. Flying fish can be bucketed or eaten.
Squill:
Spoiler
Squill can be found floating around high in the sky, either alone or in large groups. Unlike their aquatic counterparts, Squill are neutral and will attack when provoked. All nearby Squill will hone in on their aggressor. When attacking, Squill will circle above their opponent occasionally turning around and charging with chattering teeth. If a Squill is at or below 25% health, they will shoot a burst of levitating ink and fly away for a short time before re-engaging.
On death, Squill can drop a few different items:
- Squill Tooth
- Used to make Toothed Snowballs and levitation potions
- Toothed Snowballs deal damage on impact unlike regular snowballs
- Both toothed and regular snowballs apply a short duration of freezing on hit
- Whirligig
- Can be placed in the world in similar fashion to a sign
- Outputs a redstone signal based on the weather, with thunder being the highest
- Can be crafted into a Whirlibox
