Roots of Ruin

🛡️ Overview

Welcome to a world where survival is earned—not given. This modpack throws you into a hostile, immersive environment where danger lurks behind every tree, and even the simplest tools must be fought for. No hand-holding. No shortcuts. Just grit, grind, and glory.

Built for fans of hardcore survival, this experience revolves around attribute-based item locks, brutal progression, and deadly exploration. Whether you're playing solo or braving it with a friend, this is the ultimate test of your survival instincts.

⚔️ Core Features

• Attribute-Based Item Locks – Eight unique attributes control what you can wield, wear, and use. Level them up using experience earned through combat, exploration, and survival. No XP = no progress.

• No Punching Trees – Start at the bottom with flint tools. Wooden tools are gone. You're not a superhero—get crafting like a real survivor.

• Real Survival Mechanics – Manage your thirst, stay warm or cool based on the biome, and keep yourself fed with more than just bread. Ignoring these systems is a death sentence.

• Expanded Combat System – With Spartan Weaponry and Spartan Shields, master a variety of deadly weapons and tactics. Find your fighting style—or die trying.

🌱 Early Game: Sink or Swim

You begin weak, cold, and unequipped. No tree punching means your first tools must come from sharp flint and resourcefulness. Clean water isn’t a given. Shelter is a necessity. Even daytime can be dangerous. Every choice matters from the first minute.

This isn’t survival—this is barely surviving.

📈 Progression That Matters

Leveling isn’t just a number—it’s access to better gear, stronger weapons, and hope for survival. Whether it's iron tools, armor, or advanced weapons, you’ll need to invest XP into specific attributes to use them. Every victory feels earned because it is.

🧟‍♂️ Combat & Bosses

The world is full of new enemies and towering bosses added through carefully selected mods. These aren’t just stat blocks—they hit hard, look terrifying, and often come with unique mechanics. You’re not the only apex predator out here.

🌍 A Living, Dangerous World

Procedural world generation ensures you’ll never see the same world twice. Massive dungeons, ancient ruins, outposts, and strange structures are scattered across biomes—each promising loot, danger, and lore. Exploration is as rewarding as it is deadly.

👥 Solo or Co-op

Brave the world alone for the ultimate challenge—or band together with friends in co-op survival. Just remember: this world doesn't scale down when you're alone, and it won't show mercy in groups either.

🪓 No Tech. No Magic. Just Survival.

This is grounded, medieval-style survival. No fancy tech trees. No spellbooks. Just raw, relentless gameplay focused on surviving with what you can craft, scavenge, or fight for.

🔥 Are You Ready?

This isn't casual Minecraft. This is a test of will. Build your shelter. Sharpen your blade. Trust no structure, no cave, no lull in the storm. Adventure is out there—but so is everything that wants to kill you.
