About this Mod
Overview
You need Hardcore mode enabled for this to work!
Have you ever played Hardcore mode with your friends and one of you died unfairly or in a silly way? Instead of restarting your world, Hardcore Revive+ aims to keep the thrill of Hardcore mode while making death less punishing.
Instead of permanently being in spectator mode after dying, you become a ghost -- a spectator that is still able to interact with the world and other players. To be revived, another player (if they like you) must craft a Soul Charm and throw it at your ghost.
Soul Charm Recipe
Players can also craft a Life Jelly, a potion that grants the player two extra hearts until death. Upon consumption, the potion also grants Absorption 4 and Regeneration 5. (The recipe includes an enchanted golden apple)
Life Jelly Recipe
