# Stronger Skill Tree – Expansion

**A huge expansion for [Stronger Skill Tree](https://modrinth.com/search?q=Stronger Skill Tree) by PanCaKe_0_0_0.**

Finished your skill trees too quickly? This data pack makes every tree bigger, so it becomes a long-term goal. It's built for players who want a real endgame.

## 💛 Credits & Thanks

All the credit for the original work goes to **PanCaKe_0_0_0**, the creator of **Stronger Skill Tree**. The original trees are the heart of this pack: every original node is still there, untouched, in the center of each tree. This expansion only builds on top of them.

Thank you, PanCaKe_0_0_0, for the original pack and for sharing it under the MIT License. Without your work this expansion wouldn't exist. Please go support the original project! ❤️

Also huge thanks to **Pufferfish** for *Pufferfish's Skills* and *Pufferfish's Attributes*, which make all of this possible.

## ✨ What's new

| Tree | Original nodes | Expanded nodes |
|---|---|---|
| ⛏️ Mining | 65 | **266** |
| 🪓 Chopping Wood | 49 | **256** |
| ⚔️ Combat | 235 | **299** |

- **New outer rings** around every tree, connected to the original branches by new paths
- **Small nodes** with balanced bonuses (around 1–2% each), so 250+ nodes don't make you overpowered
- **Big nodes** (red) at every junction with stronger rewards: +0.15 Fortune, +8% Pickaxe Speed, +8% Axe Damage, +2 Hearts, +10% Healing and more
- **New stat for Chopping Wood:** Axe Damage
- **Rebalanced leveling:** Mining and Chopping Wood now have enough levels (266 / 256) to complete the whole tree, with a smoother XP curve
- **Bug fix:** the "-5% Anvil Cost" node actually applied -95%. It now really gives -5%.
