Trails of Forsaken Lands
by shadaff
Trails of Forsaken Lands adds a set of bosses, crystals and an equipment system tied to defeating them, for players on NeoForge 1.21.1.
What it does
The mod adds eleven required bosses and five optional side bosses, each with its own mechanics. Defeating a boss opens access to new equipment, so progress through the content is tied to the fights. Several utility items help players find and fight bosses, and the mod adds more than 40 new mobs, two new biomes and a soul gathering mechanic.
Marvs are a central system: each one grants a different effect, either passive or active. Essential movement gimmicks such as dash, double jump and dive are contained within Marvs, and some effects require the new equipment. Each player gets one Marv storage, whose capacity grows with progression, and installing too many Marvs carries debuffs. Trails of Forsaken Lands requires Geckolib, and it is released for NeoForge only, with 1.0.0 for 1.21.1 as the latest file. The code is not open source, and All rights reserved applies.
