This isn’t just an update – it’s a complete overhaul, built for long-term player retention and to make your server stand out.

FEATURES OVERVIEW
Dynamic boss spawning with configurable loot and mechanics

Rare essences as core crafting materials for advanced progression

Unique enchantments for armor, weapons, and books

Balanced gameplay with scalable progression and rewards

✔ Full configuration support in config.yml for total control


RARE ESSENCES – THE HEART OF THE HUNT
Rare Essences are magical items dropped by bosses at their altars. Players can combine them with other materials to craft secondary essences, unlocking powerful enchantments that change how they play.


Enchantments:
- Vampiric Regeneration
– Heal by damaging enemies
- Hardy – Gain bonus max health per level
- Backstab – Deal extra damage when striking from behind
- Fly – Fly freely (It only takes food!)
- Self-Repair – Slowly repairs items at the cost of food (books only)
- Regeneration – Passive health recovery over time


EPIC BOSS ENCOUNTERS
Every few minutes, Rare Item Hunter randomly selects a world from your config.yml and spawns a mystical altar structure. Players are alerted via the Compass of Fate, which glows and guides them to the location when right clicked.

Once a player approaches the altar, a boss spawns with a set of customizable abilities and rewards. These encounters are designed to challenge even the most experienced players.


Featured Bosses
Bomber Boss
-
Spawns explosive minions that detonate after a short delay
