"Explore the world like a true adventurer!"

📖 Introduction

Ascension Mastery is an RPG mod designed to reinvent the vanilla Minecraft exploration experience. Forget about mindlessly grinding mob farms to get stronger.

We introduce a brand new "Skill Point" system that rewards players who truly explore the world. By venturing into unknown biomes, tasting exotic foods, and looting ancient treasures, you earn points to unlock a massive Skill Tree. From Double Jumping to summoning Wolf Packs, from Auto-Smelting to unleashing Destructive Magic, every adventure translates into tangible power.

🎮 Core Mechanics

1. Exploration is Power

In this mod, XP ≠ Skill Points. To ascend, you must step out of your comfort zone:

Collector: Pick up unique items for the first time.
New Horizons: Step into new biomes or dimensions.
Gastronome: Taste foods you have never eaten before.
Archaeologist: Loot chests in structures like Dungeons or Strongholds.
Hunt: Claim "First Kills" on various mobs. Bosses yield massive rewards.
Advancement: Complete vanilla advancements.

2. The Skill Tree

Press K (default) to open the Skill Tree. Mix and match abilities from four main branches:

⚔️ Combat:
- Master fire magic to ignite enemies or empower yourself with lava.
- Learn aerial combat arts to deal devastating damage while airborne.
🏃 Survival:
- Gain high-mobility skills like Double Jump and Charged Super Jump.
- Gain buffs and massive health boosts through special dietary habits.
⛏️ Excavation:
- Significantly boost mining and logging efficiency.
- Find rare minerals even in common stone.
- Unlock utilities like Gold Panning from sand or a portable Pocket Furnace.
✨ Arcane:
- Gain experience by reading books or master the art of Teleportation.

3. Active Skills & Controls

The mod offers more than just passive buffs. It features a complete action system:

Tactical Switch: Hold Alt + Scroll Wheel to cycle through equipped active skills.
Cast Skill: Hold Alt + Left/Right Click to unleash the primary/secondary effects.
(All keybinds are customizable in Options)

✨ Unique Enchantments

We bring a series of game-changing "Utility Enchantments" to vanilla tools, rather than just simple stat boosts:

Summoning: Arrows can spawn Iron Golems to fight for you, or summon tamed Cats.
Tactical: Steal movement speed from enemies, or heal yourself on hit (Life Steal).
Destruction: The legendary Death Star Cannon enchantment can instantly obliterate terrain and enemies.
