Mlona[mineelona]

Features

Character progression

• Six core stats — Strength, Constitution, Magic, Willpower, Dexterity, Perception — that level up from using weapons, taking hits, casting, travelling and eating.
• Dozens of skills, grouped by stat: weapon specialisations, shields, healing, meditation, cooking, cultivation, crafting and more. Skills grow the same way you do — by using them.
• Potential system — how fast a stat or skill grows is governed by a potential multiplier, up to 300%. Stats cap at 150 (gear can push past it); skills cap at the related stat + 10.

Elements and combat

• Nine-element offense and resistance. Every creature has its own resistance table, so the right element hits far harder — and the wrong one barely scratches.
• Status effects — bleeding, paralysis, curse, deflagration, aether, lightning and more — are tied directly into the elemental system.
• Mobs grow stronger with your Covenant level (health, attack, armour, movement speed), giving difficulty a proper RPG curve.

Gear: level, quality, affixes

• Item level derived from your Covenant level.
• Six quality tiers — Crude, Common, Fine, Superior, Miracle, Artifact — with 0 / 1–2 / 3–4 / 5–6 / 7 / 8 affixes respectively.
• Random affixes drawn by weight from per-category pools: weapons never roll resistances, armour never rolls raw damage bonuses, and block-value affixes only appear on armour and shields.
• Void gear carries extra affix capacity — the same setup simply rolls more affixes.
• Black Star items — unique equipment with fixed affixes: never random, never re-rolled, and impossible to disassemble.

Covenant and magic

• Covenant level is a separate progression: +1 per day, up to 200. It sets the baseline item level of everything you craft or find.
• A complete magic system: learn spells, browse your spellbook, cast with cooldowns, backed by the Magic stat and the Meditation skill.

Artisan Table & Disassembly Table

• Artisan Table — forge gear from materials in your inventory (sticks, planks, cobblestone, iron, gold, emerald, diamond, redstone, netherite, void ingot, obsidian, nether quartz). Browse by weapon category, preview base stats and the expected result level, and earn Crafting XP for everything you make.
• Disassembly Table — break unwanted weapons, armour, shields and bows down into materials (iron, gold, nether quartz, emerald, diamond, cobblestone, sticks). Queue several items and salvage them in one go. Black Star items cannot be disassembled.

Loot and economy

• Hostile mobs have an 11%–19% chance (scaling with Perception) to drop craftable gear, automatically rolled with level, quality and affixes when picked up.
• Killing Endermen in the End can additionally drop Void gear; Void Dust comes from Endermen, Endermites and from disassembling Void gear.

Interface and HUD

• Reworked status bars: health, hunger, experience and mana in one integrated display, including a golden absorption shield bar (shown as SP).
• Dedicated windows: O for the attribute overview (including HP/MP regeneration per second), K for the skills window, L for the creative-mode item editor.
• Floating damage numbers driven by Mlona's own damage pipeline, so what you see is exactly what you deal. Coloured by the dominant damage type.
• Reworked target health bar, skill tooltips and stat colour coding.

Training Dummy

• A placeable training dummy for testing builds: hit it and read the exact damage you dealt — elemental resistance, affixes, crits, block value and covenant bonuses all included.
• It never dies and never moves, plays the axe-stripping sound when struck, and can be picked up again by right-clicking it with the item.
• Craft it from two planks and three sticks (plank / stick stick stick / plank plank plank).

Extras

• Three new herb foods (Giant's Brawn, Magic Grass, Fatigue Grass) that grant attribute XP directly; your Cooking skill increases the attribute XP food gives you.
• Entering the Nether for the first time grants a one-time 10-minute Fire Resistance.
• In-game configuration screen (Mods list → Mlona → Config) for toggling features such as the floating damage numbers.
