Attack damage is the amount of damage the item will deal when attacking a mob. All the weapons ranking from the most attack damage to least listed:
1- Netherite Sword 8
2- Diamond Sword 7
3- Bow (Varies)
4- Crossbow (Varies)
5- Iron Sword 6
6- Trident 9
7- Stone Sword 5
8- Wooden Sword 4
9- Golden Sword 4
Swords are melee weapons that allow players to attack mobs at close range. Swords may be swung in quick succession allowing for high damage output in a short period of time. Swords made with better materials will deal more damage. There are 6 available swords that can be crafted:
1-Wooden sword
2-Stone sword
3-Iron sword
4-Golden sword
5-Diamond sword
6-Netherite sword
Crafting:
1x stick + 2x wooden planks / stone / iron ingots / gold ingots / diamonds = 1 sword
The only one you can’t craft like the others is the netherite sword. To get this type of tool, you first need a Minecraft diamond sword to upgrade with an ingot of netherite with a smithing table.
The Bow and the Crossbow are both ranged weapons allowing players to attack mobs from afar. However players will require ammunition such as arrows to shoot with. Bow and Crossbow shots have to be charged up to shoot stonger and faster.
Crafting
Bow- 3xstrings + 3x sticks = 1 bow
Crossbow- 1x iron ingot + 3x sticks + 2x strings + 1x tripwire hook = 1 crossbow
The Trident works as both a melee weapon and a ranged weapon. As a Melee weapon, it's a tad slower than a sword, but as a ranged weapon it is not slowed down in water. However, when thrown as a ranged weapon, the Trident will leave your player without a weapon until the Trident is retrieved.
Tridents are a rare Weapon as they cannot be crafted, and are instead a very rare drop from killing Drowned.
