Amethyst Relics

Amethyst Relics adds relics bound to amethyst and an optional cursed item for players who seek a higher difficulty. Progression runs through six levels. The early levels impose a weakness to sunlight and movement penalties, while the higher levels grant execution-style combat with chained teleports and resets. Level 6 removes the movement penalties, so a player can reach the full combo potential.

Health is spared while hunger absorbs incoming damage, and health takes damage only after the hunger bar has run out. After a five-second delay, which can be configured, the player returns to the previous position. Dealing damage grants a dodge with a position shift, and attackers are marked, letting a marked player trigger a teleport approach. The relic grants 40% extra max health for 4 seconds, and its timing and duration were adjusted for balance.

Both client and server need the mod, since the environment is client and server. Forge files cover 1.20.1. The latest file is 1.1.2, released on 2026-01-21, and the code is All rights reserved; the mod is not open source.
