SkilNeeded
A skill-based progression mod for Minecraft 26.1.2 (Fabric)
Overview
SkilNeeded transforms your Minecraft experience by introducing a deep skill progression system. Every action you take — mining stone, chopping trees, fighting mobs, casting a fishing line — earns you experience in a dedicated skill. Level up your skills to unlock better tools, stronger weapons, and superior equipment.
No more picking up a diamond sword on day one. Earn it.
