Class Gem: Paladin
by HER0XP
Class Gem: Paladin adds three Curios-based gems that each grant a Paladin-themed passive ability when its specific conditions are met.
What it does
The gems are worn through the Curios API slots, so they are not held in the hotbar or inventory. Each gem brings small stat bonuses along with a passive effect that switches on only in particular situations. The three gems are arranged in tiers, and the set is meant to represent the Paladin class. Tier 1 gems can be found in Overworld chests, while tiers 2 and 3 are made through crafting.
The mod needs Class Gem: Core and Curios API to run. It is a Forge mod for 1.20.1 only, and it runs on client and server, so the server and every player must install it. Its author describes a focus on high compatibility with other mods, with combat systems named as examples. Additional class gems are planned as separate additions, so players can choose which classes to deploy. Future versions are described as adding visual cues for passives, like on-screen indicators for active state, cooldown and combat information.
