Cold's RPG Stuff
by thecoldguy
Cold's RPG Stuff gives Forge players combat attributes, four tiers of accessories and a talent tree for dungeon and boss progression on 1.20.1.
What it does
The mod adds new attributes, mostly combat bonuses on items and equipment, that touch damage, critical hits, attack speed, healing, debuff resistance and the chance to avoid incoming damage. Accessories raise the player's attributes across four tiers, and some stats follow diminishing returns. Effective HP and total damage reduction are shown on the stat screen with an icon in the inventory.
The mod changes armor directly. Default armor and armor toughness are heavily reduced, and protection enchantments are halved, so the game feels harsher and tank builds become viable. A talent tree lets players specialize in a role. The mod is aimed at modpacks built around dungeons and boss fights, with a strong midgame and endgame.
Cold's RPG Stuff runs on Forge only, for 1.20.1, and both the server and every player need it. It is released under the MIT License and is not open source. It has no required dependencies. Textures were generated with AI.
