Description

![](https://github.com/Majrusz/MinecraftCommon/blob/main/ProgressiveDifficulty/logo.png?raw=true) This modification progressively increases the game difficulty over time. It is inspired by the similar \ mechanics in [Terraria](https://www.terraria.org), but the difficulty also scales with [Regional Difficulty](https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Difficulty) to keep Minecraft style. \ A detailed description of this mod can be found on the [Wiki](https://majruszs-progressive-difficulty.fandom.com/wiki/Majrusz%27s_Progressive_Difficulty_Wiki). \ Since version 0.4.0 this mod requires a [Majrusz Library](https://modrinth.com/mod/majrusz-library) to work! ![](https://github.com/Majrusz/MinecraftCommon/blob/main/ProgressiveDifficulty/game_stages.png?raw=true) Progress in the game is divided into stages, with each stage providing new difficulty tweaks and \ improving previous ones. At the moment there are three stages: \- Normal Mode, which starts at the beginning of the game. \ \- Expert Mode, which starts when the first player enters the Nether. \ (or any dimension from other mods) \ \- Master Mode, which starts when you defeat the Ender Dragon. ![](https://github.com/Majrusz/MinecraftCommon/blob/main/ProgressiveDifficulty/stuff.png?raw=true) ### Groups of enemies Enemies appear in groups with one leader and \ followers who attack the same target as the leader. \ Followers are more likely to have weapons and leaders to have armors. \ ![](https://github.com/Majrusz/MinecraftCommon/blob/main/ProgressiveDifficulty/group.gif?raw=true) ### Undead Army The Undead Army is a new raid which starts after killing a certain amount of \ undead enemies. It has up to 5 waves, rewards the player with a treasure bag after \ finishing it, scales difficulty over time and scales difficulty with each player participating in! ![](https://github.com/Majrusz/MinecraftCommon/blob/main/ProgressiveDifficulty/undead_army.gif?raw=true) ### Treasure Bags New Terraria-inspired bags that contain some extra loot and have \ a chance for one unique item. Each player receives their own Treasure Bag \ when they help to defeat a raid/boss. Currently, you can acquire them from: \ Fishing, Undead Army, Raid, Elder Guardian, Warden, Wither and Ender Dragon. ![](https://github.com/Majrusz/MinecraftCommon/blob/main/ProgressiveDifficulty/treasure_bags.png?raw=true) ### Bleeding Each animal and human being can now bleed. This is an effect that deals damage similar \ to poison and can be removed using a new item: Bandage. It is caused by many different sources \ such as swords, spiders or even cactuses... but the more armor you have, the less likely you are to bleed. \ It is important to keep bandages with you as the Bleeding becomes more deadly with each stage! ![](https://github.com/Majrusz/MinecraftCommon/blob/main/ProgressiveDifficulty/bleeding.gif?raw=true) ### Enderium Ingots However, despite all the difficulty tweaks in the late-game, a new ore called Enderium can be found. \ With this ore, you can make Enderium Ingots which are used to upgrade Netherite armor and tools! \ Enderium ore generates in End Stone and can be found in End structures as well. ![](https://github.com/Majrusz/MinecraftCommon/blob/main/ProgressiveDifficulty/enderium_ingot.png?raw=true) ### And much more!
