Simply Bows is a Minecraft datapack for Java Edition that expands ranged combat with several custom bows and distinctive effects. Its special weapons include Fire, Freeze, Rotten, and Explosive bows, while Iron, Gold, and Diamond bows offer different statistics and progression choices. Recipes keep the content suitable for survival gameplay, giving adventurers practical reasons to gather varied materials.
Designed for Minecraft 1.21.4, the datapack uses custom item visuals through a required resource pack and works well on a cooperative Minecraft server. At BoxToPlay, we see it as a simple way to make archery more varied, tactical, and entertaining without changing the broader vanilla experience.
