ForgeClient and serverApache License 2.01.20.1

What it does

Skill points are spent in a tree view that can be panned and zoomed, with a search box for finding a node among the 140-plus entries. Higher-tier skills stay locked until their prerequisites are reached, so the tree steers players toward foundational passives before specialized abilities. Key bindings can be changed freely.

The tree is split into categories: Core Combat Stats for passive upgrades that scale with a build, Defense for mitigation, shield and counter skills, Mobility for dashes and short-range repositioning, Mining Exploration for ore detection and smelting, Aquatic for water-focused skills, Archery for arrow and bow upgrades, and Sword Arts, a melee tree with wave, slash and elemental variants. Earth skills cover slams and spikes. Installation covers the server and each player's game. Files are published for Forge only, under the Apache License 2.0, and the code is not open source.

Key features

  1. Branching skill tree

    More than 140 skills sit in a tree that players expand by spending points gained from play.

  2. Searchable tree screen

    A pannable and zoomable view with a search box makes individual nodes simple to locate.

  3. Prerequisite gating

    Higher-tier skills become available only after the skills they depend on, guiding progress from basic passives upward.

  4. Category lines

    Combat, defense, mobility, mining, aquatic, archery, sword and earth lines each give a distinct build direction.

Can a skill be used before its prerequisites?

No. Advanced skills require earlier nodes to be reached first, so the tree is entered from the foundational passives.
