Savaru IV — Kohtalon Mies

A Fabric 1.21.1 action-RPG modpack built around an in-house "Savaru" framework. 360+ curated mods, 12 playable classes, a 7-tier world-progression system, and a dungeon framework that's actually written for the pack.

What makes this pack different

Most "RPG modpacks" are a stack of class mods plus a quest book. Savaru IV — Kohtalon Mies ships with eight custom Savaru mods that re-define how progression, gear, dungeons, and even your control scheme behave. The vanilla mods around them aren't the system — they're the content the Savaru system runs on top of.

The eight Savaru core mods

Mod	What it does
Savaru's Worldology	Splits the world into 7 progression tiers — Novice → Adventurer → Survivor → Hero → Veteran → Lord → Ruler — that gate where you can fight, what mobs are scaled to, and what gear can drop.
Savaru's Growthology	A native 300-level character system with 50+ skills across combat, magic, ranged, gathering, and exploration. Drives your vanilla attributes directly.
Savaru's Affixology	An 8-tier affix quality system (Common → Strange/Unrivaled) with quality curves tied to Worldology tier and level-gated unlocks.
Savaru's Dungeonology	A real dungeon framework with Entry Tickets (the only way to enter modded portals), party management, themed generation, and a server-wide scoreboard.
Savaru's KeybindSync	Automatically swaps between Click-to-Move and WASD presets depending on whether you're inside a dungeon or out in the world.
Savaru's Legacyology	Builds the world-lore and inter-mod progression backbone.
Savaru's Inv	Inventory layout, size rules, and per-item slot policies.
Savaru's CursorFX	Native cursor effects and feedback for the bespoke menus.

These aren't datapacks. They are full Fabric mods written for this pack.

⚔️ Combat & Classes

A genuinely large class roster powered by RPG Series + RPG Series Plus:

Bards • Soulwarden • Witcher • Knight • Mage • Cleric • Monk • Berserker • Rogue • Archer • Warrior • Gunslinger • Battlemage • Druids • Paladins & Priests • Wizards (with Path of the Wizard)

Backed by the full Spell Engine stack — Spell Power Attributes, Extra Spell Attributes, RPGMana, SpellHud — and reinforced by Better Combat, Combat Roll, Spellblades and Such, Simply Swords, Simply Bows, Simply More, and Pufferfish's Skills.

Every weapon you find can roll affixes from the Affixology pool, gated by your character level:

Epic — Lv 1+
Legendary — Lv 31+
Mythic — Lv 51+
Unrivaled — Lv 71+
Strange — Lv 101+

🏛️ Dungeons & Bosses

Dungeon content is curated, not random:

YUNG's Better Dungeons / Nether Fortresses / End Island
Dungeons and Taverns • Explorify – Dungeons & Structures
DungeonZ + Desert Dungeon + Loot Integrations
MineCells integration (Doorway portals supported by Dungeonology)
MES – Moog's End Structures • Better Nether • End Remastered
Respawning Structures so the world keeps offering content over time

Boss roster includes ANARCHY Minibosses, Bosses of Mass Destruction, Brutal Bosses, Mutant Monsters, Trial Guardians, Repeatable Trial Vaults, and Nether's Trial.

Every dungeon entry is mediated by Savaru's Dungeonology: tickets drop from regular mobs (~6.6%), and you select EASY / NORMAL / HARD / BOSS difficulty before stepping through. The world-tier check, mob scaling, and loot quality all snap to whatever you picked.

📖 FTB Quest Book

A 28-chapter Quest Book with full English & Traditional Chinese localization, covering:

Class paths — one full chapter per class (Witcher, Bards, Soulwarden, Knight, Mage, Cleric, Monk, Berserker, Rogue, Archer, Warrior, Gunslinger)
Affixology • Worldology • Dungeonology • World Level • Final Chapter: Destiny
Equipment collections, General Store, Exclusive Shop, Star Chart
Per-class Epic / Legendary loot box reward tables

Translation is finalised — no leftover Chinese strings in the English book.

🖱️ Two Control Schemes, Switched Automatically

The pack ships Click-to-Move and WASD as first-class preset modes:

Click-to-Move for dungeon delving (top-down ARPG feel)
WASD for open-world exploration (first-person Minecraft)

Savaru's KeybindSync swaps the entire bound set when you change contexts — no manual remapping ever.

Defaults:

O — open Dungeon Menu
C — open Growthology Skills
` (hold) — show the server-wide Scoreboard (level / kills / damage)
Edit HUD — unbound by default; assign in Options → Controls

🎯 Who is this pack for?

Players who want a real RPG, not just "vanilla + a class mod"
Players who like structured progression — tiers, level gates, affix quality curves — instead of immediate access to everything
Players who want both gameplay styles — top-down ARPG dungeons and first-person open-world exploration — in the same save
Groups looking for co-op runs: parties, shared world tiers, server scoreboard, native party HUD

⚠️ First-launch notes

First boot will take noticeably longer than usual while the Savaru systems build their indexes.
Most resource packs are enabled by default. The Excalibur main pack must sit below its compatibility sub-packs in load order — already configured for you.
Pick a class via the Class Selection chapter in the Quest Book before doing anything else; many systems gate behind a chosen path.
In multiplayer, all players must be on the same pack version.
