About this Mod

🌑 Dreadwalker – Terror of the Blackwood
Dive into the darkness of the Blackwood… an ancient presence stalks the trees.
This mod adds the Dreadwalker, a slow, massive, and relentless boss that spawns in the Dark Forest. It hunts its prey without mercy and only stops if you dare to challenge it.

⚔️ The Boss

  • Spawns in the Dark Forest
  • Slow, durable, and designed for endgame
  • Aggressive hunter AI
  • Powerful rewards upon defeat

🎁 Exclusive Loot

  • One guaranteed unique item
  • Chance to obtain additional materials
    These resources are required to unlock Dreadwalker gear.

🔥 Endgame Progression
⚠️ Dreadwalker gear is strictly End Game.
It can only be obtained by upgrading Netherite gear using a Smithing Table, just like upgrading Diamond → Netherite.
Skipping Netherite is not possible — the mod fully respects vanilla progression.

🛡️ Upgradeable Equipment
⚔️ Weapons & Tools: 🗡️ sword, ⛏️ pickaxe, 🪓 axe, 🏹 bow, 🪓 shovel, 🌾 hoe
🛡️ Armor: 🪖 helmet, 🛡️ chestplate, 👖 leggings, 🥾 boots
Upgrade requires: Netherite gear + Dreadwalker Upgrade + Dreadwalker Powder.

🪄 Magic Staff
The Magic Staff is a standalone weapon with its own crafting recipe.
It does not upgrade from Netherite.

✨ Armor Effects

  • Helmet → Night Vision
  • Chestplate → Resistance

📦 Additional Features

  • Reworked 2D armor icons
  • Custom Creative Mode tab

Frequently Asked Questions

DreadWalker server crashes on startup – what to do?

Server lagging with DreadWalker – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if DreadWalker consumes the most tick time.
