Epic RPG: Leveling Rank
by HER0XP
Epic RPG: Leveling Rank adds ranked difficulty tiers to the game, where each tier is opened by a special challenge item that the player must overcome before moving on.
What it does
Every difficulty tier is represented by its own challenge item. Players advance through the ranks by defeating these challenges, and each completed tier makes the next one available. Enemies in higher levels gain more health and deal more attack damage, and mining progression is restricted so that higher-tier ores such as iron appear only as the player advances. The full set contains 16 difficulty levels, with the first four forming the core stages of progression. Spawned enemies can also carry one or two positive effects at higher levels.
The mod is split into separate modules so that each feature stays focused. Titles are handled by Epic RPG, and the Legendary Titles rarity system is managed by Epic RPG as well. The mod requires AttributeFix, and XP: Attribute Core is an optional dependency. Files are published for Forge and NeoForge, for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1. The latest Forge file is 3.2.5 for 1.20.1, and the latest NeoForge file is 3.2.4 for 1.21.1. The environment is client and server, so the server and every player need the mod, and it is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
Key features
Ranked challenge items
Special items represent each difficulty tier, and each one must be overcome before the next rank becomes available.
Difficulty progress interface
A window opened with the X key shows the current level, the player's progress within it, and the health and attack values of enemies.
Scaled enemy stats
Enemy health and attack damage rise with each difficulty level, while enemies on the first level keep vanilla stats.
Restricted mining progression
Higher ore tiers stay locked until the player reaches the rank that opens them, such as iron.
Legendary titles
A rarity system for titles is managed by Epic RPG, separate from the difficulty ranks.
