Mine and Slash
by mcrobertx22
Mine and Slash changes the hack-and-slash looter loop of Minecraft, adding Diablo-style gear progression, set items, rune words and a large talent tree.
What it does
Mine and Slash replaces the usual drops with a looter system: weapons and armor roll stats, unique items and set items drop from enemies and chests, and chaos stats add another layer to each piece of gear. Progression mechanics are built around these rolls, so a character grows through gear, talents and spell masteries rather than through vanilla enchantments alone. Adventure maps follow increasingly difficult tiers, and salvaging and crafting can be changed so that loot feeds back into the economy of the world.
The mod is aimed at players who want MMORPG-style looter gameplay in a Forge world. Most of its systems can be tuned through configuration files, and the author suggests the Craft Exile 2 modpack for players who want a ready-made setup. Mine and Slash needs Curios API, Dungeon Realm, Library of Exile, The Harvest and playerAnimator, and it is required by five catalog mods, including Mine and Slash Compatibility and Better Party X Mine and Slash. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. Forge builds exist for 1.20 and 1.20.1, with 6.3.7 for 1.20.1 as the latest file, released under All rights reserved.
Key features
Rolled gear stats
Weapons and armor receive randomized stats, which determine how each piece differs from another of the same type.
Unique and set items
Named unique items and multi-piece set items drop as rare loot with fixed bonuses.
Rune words
Combinations of runes can be socketed into gear to create rune words with their own effects.
Huge talent tree
A large talent tree lets a character specialize along many branches and spell masteries that can be combined.
Chaos stats
Chaos stats add a separate statistic layer to gear, adjusting how items behave beyond their base values.
Adventure map tiers
Adventure maps step up in difficulty across tiers, so the content scales as the character grows.
