Progressive Life

Have you ever felt that the mobs are not much of a threat even without good items? Would you like an extra reason to avoid death besides playing on Hardcore? Or do you simply want to make the game a bit harder? In any case, Progressive Life should do the trick. This small mod is fully compatible with existing worlds and characters.

Features:

• Base max health of players is reduced to 10 (remember that cows have 10 health too and they are quite formidable in real life, so this amount is reasonable).
• You can increase your max health back to 20 by consuming Living Hearts.
• Living Hearts drop from Elder Guardians and any mobs that drop 11+ experience. In vanilla that would include bosses, baby mobs, Piglin Brutes and mobs wearing armor (the drop is not guaranteed in last case and depends on the number of armor pieces).
• Consuming Living Hearts adds 2 max health (up to 20). They also heal 2 health and act as food.
• Players drop up to 5 consumed Living Hearts and their max health goes back to 10 on death! Make sure to either have reserves or pick up the dropped ones in time.
