Beyond The End Mobs — Changelog

New: Welcome tutorial

• A guided tour of The Forgotten Realm for new players, with big centered title cards. Left click advances them, and holding Backspace skips the whole tutorial.
• Step by step through the 4 NPCs (Anna, Antonio, Noah and Oriana) and the key places:
  • Experience Obelisk
  • Ender Eyes menu
  • Quest log
  • Teleport and Waystones
  • Home Zone
  • Storage Room (Crafting Terminal, Jumbo Furnace, Dimensional Storage)
  • Summoning Altar
  • Elevator
  • Portal Room
• Each destination is marked by a coloured beacon beam, a "!" over the NPC, a tracker objective, and a temporary Xaero's Minimap / World Map waypoint with the name of the place.
• In-menu guide panels for the Ender Eyes menu, the quest log and the inventory buttons.
• The "Next: ..." notification stays on screen until that step is done, and it comes back when you rejoin the world.
• After talking to each NPC, an illustrated guide explains what they do:
  • Anna: crafting and upgrading gear while keeping its enchantments, upgrade routes, and repairing without XP.
  • Antonio: structure compasses and maps unlocked through his quests, and his rumors.
  • Noah: brewing without a Brewing Stand; enchanting by unlocking recipes with Enchanted Books and Ender Eyes, and enchanted items capped to your unlocked level.
  • Oriana: pet items and her Bestiary.
• The tutorial ends by talking to Noah in the Portal Room, followed by an explanation of the Beyond The End portal.
• The welcome cards only show once, and progress is saved per player.
• Cards scale to fit above the health, armor and food bars at any resolution and GUI scale.
• Debug command: /btequests welcome restarts the tutorial.

New: Quest log, tracker and notifications

• Quest log button in the inventory: browse every NPC's quests from anywhere (view only; you claim them by talking to the NPC). Each NPC is shown with their face, their progress and a "!" when something is ready.
• Quest tracker HUD:
  • Track up to 5 quests (configurable) on the left of the screen, with their tasks and live progress.
  • Ctrl+X shows or hides it.
  • Tracked quests are saved per world or server.
• Quest ready notifications: a toast with the NPC's face, a level-up sound, and a golden "!" over NPCs that have a quest ready to claim.

Quests

• Full rework of Anna, Antonio, Noah and Oriana's progression (72 quests):
  • New boss and structure quests: Netherite Monstrosity, Maledictus, Ignis, Labyrinth, Keep Kayra, Rainfall Serenity, Void Worm, Plague Asylum, Soul Prison, mutants and more.
  • New task types: unique crafts, brewing, feeding, Personal Horse, Warlock enchanting, Blacksmith crafting, activating Waystones…
  • Main quests are highlighted: everything needed for an Ender Eye or for gear and mechanics progression.
  • Quests are shared in co-op, unlocked recipes are shared between players, and quests work on dedicated servers and LAN.
• Antonio's maps:
  • New structure maps: Infested Temple, Pillager Fortress, Keep Kayra and Soul Prison.
  • Map quests can give the map again for 1 Skeleton Skull ("Get another").
• Moved between NPCs:
  • Mutant quests and Plague Asylum go to Oriana.
  • Keep Kayra and Pillager Fortress go to Anna.
  • Shiraz Palace goes to Oriana.
• Mechanical Compass: now uses a Nether Star, which is given back as a reward because you need it to summon the Ancient Factory boss.
• Twilight Forest portal: the Infested Temple reward now opens it in The Forgotten Realm fountain. The portal is stable and the opening is announced to everyone.
• Bosses killed early still count: for example, the Lich no longer blocks the Infested Temple quest.
• Iceologer quest: counts both Iceologer variants.
• Soul Prison quest: set to the Nether.
