Mekasuit Mauler

[beholderface]

A hex designed to be cast by several cleric-impetus spell circles executing in parallel, accelerating an arrow to absurd velocities in order to kill players equipped with Mekanism's Mekasuit (or similarly-overpowered armor).

In my testing, a power 5 arrow traveling at a velocity of ~21,000 meters per tick was sufficient to kill me in a maximally-upgraded mekasuit, but 20,000 was not. This requires a minimum of four concurrent spell circles, and a media cost of about 42,100 dust (spread about evenly across the circles). If you do not have a power 5 bow to load the circles with, or wish to use a dispenser instead, you will need a higher velocity and thus more circles.

The circles must all have ambit on the bubble column where you load the arrows into. I recommend building small circles which fetch the full hex from a central location in order to minimize activation delay.

The circles must execute the following code in the exact same tick:

While developing this, I triggered the circles using a hex that just triggered an observer next to my sentinel (which, conveniently, means that you do not need to build the circles in any special manner in order to get ambit on the bubble column), but any way to produce a redstone pulse from a great distance should do.

Here, the hex in the focus on the impetus fetches and executes the hex from the focus on the observer.



Fun fact: 21,000 meters per tick is approximately 0.14% of the speed of light.

Be warned, firing this uses a lot of server resources, to the point that my game would freeze for several seconds when firing.

don't worry about the freeze, that's just hitstop
