Cursed Relics: Unbound
by repyh
Cursed Relics: Unbound is a Forge magic mod that adds relics whose abilities grow stronger as the player levels up.
What it does
Relics in Cursed Relics: Unbound give combat magic with effects styled after vanilla Minecraft, aimed at changing how fights play out. Each relic carries its own ability, and that ability can be boosted by enhancing buffs, including a healing effect. Relics come in four tiers, and a higher tier holds a stronger ability.
The author built the mod with multiplayer in mind and states an aim of balanced player versus player combat. Abilities that start out strong can lose their impact after some time, and leveling an item raises the ability's power again. The mod is a Forge install for 1.20.1, and it runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it.
The mod is published for Forge only, with one version for 1.20.1. The latest Forge file is 0.0.2 for 1.20.1, released on 2024-01-16 on the alpha channel. The license is All rights reserved, so the mod is not open source.
