Progressable Attributes and Abilities
Progressable Attributes and Abilities, shortened to PA3, adds a skill system to Minecraft in which experience levels are spent on attributes and active abilities.
What it does
Players gain experience, level up, and allocate attribute points to stats such as health and strength. Attributes improve passively during play; higher maximum health and greater dodge chances are among the benefits they bring. The mod frames this as a progression goal layered onto the game, so attribute growth gives players a reason to keep exploring and fighting.
Separate from the passive stats, points can also be spent on active abilities that the player triggers by hand. The mod is published for Forge only, for Minecraft 1.19.2 – 1.19.4, and its latest file is 1.4.1 for 1.19.4. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. It is released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only and is open source, with public source code and an issue tracker.
