About this Mod

Items & Recipes

Here are the clear crafting recipes and hidden mechanics for each item based on the provided data.

Mugwort & Garlic (Mugwort Garlic)

  • Recipe: 1 Dirt (Shapeless recipe, can be crafted in your 2x2 inventory grid).

Function:

  • Every time you eat it, you gain Regeneration IV for 4 seconds, and your maximum health permanently increases by 1.0 (half a heart). This caps at a maximum of 40.0 health (20 hearts).

Slender Bronze Dagger

Recipe: 1 Bipa Bronze Dagger + 1 Diamond (Shapeless).

Function:

  • Fall Damage Immunity: If you hold this weapon in either your main hand or offhand, you will take zero fall damage, no matter how high you fall from.
  • I-Frame Bypass: If the custom mujuk gamerule is enabled, attacking mobs with this dagger reduces their invincibility frames to 0, allowing you to hit them at insanely fast speeds.

Crescent Stone Knife

Function:

  • Left-clicking (punching the air or a block) throws a projectile. Any entity hit by this projectile takes a flat 5.0 damage (2.5 hearts). It has a brief 0.5-second cooldown.

Bronze Mirror

Function:

  • Used by right-clicking, just like a shield. If you are hit while blocking, the incoming damage to you is completely negated (reduced to 0), and 100% of the damage is reflected back to the attacker. You also receive a Resistance IV buff for 5 seconds. However, the mirror goes on a massive 15-second (300 ticks) cooldown after a successful block.

Translator

Function (Ore Transmutation):

  • If held in either hand, every 1 second, it forces all Redstone Ore/Blocks and Lapis Ore/Blocks within a 16-block radius around the player to transform into Copper Ore.
  • Core Boss Item: (See the Boss Strategy below).

Other Items (Recipes not included in the provided files)

  • Bipa Bronze Dagger, Bronze Bells, Copper Gacha, Unfired Pottery, Plain Coarse Pottery, Sehyung Template, Bone Armor Set (Helmet, Chestplate, Leggings, Boots).
  • Tiger Breath
  • A hidden drop item that can only be obtained by killing the Tiger boss using a specific method.

Mod Progression & How to Beat the Boss

This mod has a progression system and a boss fight inspired by the Korean Dangun myth.

STEP 1: "Becoming Human" (Powering Up)

  • Dig up a lot of Dirt and craft it into Mugwort & Garlic.
  • Keep eating the Mugwort & Garlic to permanently increase your health to the maximum (40.0 / 20 hearts).
  • By default, once you eat exactly 100 Mugwort & Garlics (this quota can be changed via the manul gamerule), you will clear the "Human" advancement and receive the following chat message: "You have eaten 100 Mugwort and Garlic to become human! You are ready to fight the tiger."
  • Upon becoming Human, you receive a permanent Strength II (Damage Boost) buff, drastically increasing your attack power forever.

STEP 2: Defeating the Tiger Boss (Boss Fight)

The Tiger is a very powerful boss with 600 Health (300 hearts) and high attack damage.

Boss Attack Patterns:

  • Charge: Dashes rapidly at the player, breaking blocks in its path and dealing massive damage (36.0).
  • Swipe: Deals 24.0 damage in a frontal cone and knocks players back.
  • Roar: Inflicts Slowness IV and Weakness I on players within 10 blocks.
  • Shadow Dash: Turns invisible and dashes, breaking blocks and dealing a devastating 48.0 damage.
  • Wind Blade: Shoots 3 fireballs in a spread pattern.
  • Ground Smash: Jumps into the air and crashes down, causing an explosion and dealing 18.0 damage.

Phase 2: When its health drops below half (300), its boss bar name changes to "호냥이" (Honyangi / "Kitty-tiger") and it uses its skills much more frequently.

💡 [CORE] The Secret to Beating the Tiger & The Hidden Reward
Fighting the Tiger head-on is extremely difficult, but the Translator item is its hard counter.

Inducing Exhaustion:

If a player is within 20 blocks of the Tiger and is holding the 'Translator' (in either their main hand or offhand), the Tiger will become exhausted after using 5 skills. The Tiger will say " Pant... Pant..." in chat and will be completely immobilized for 15 seconds. This is your window to deal massive damage.

Getting the Hidden Drop:

When dealing the final, killing blow to the Tiger, the player must be holding the 'Translator'. If you do this successfully, the Tiger will drop the secret 'Tiger Breath' item on the ground. You will also earn the "Tiger Hunter" advancement.
To summarize the game plan: Craft Dirt into Mugwort & Garlic, eat 100 of them to max out your health and get infinite Strength, then equip the Translator in your offhand. Use the Bronze Mirror to deflect hits, wait for the Tiger to exhaust itself, and burst it down with the Slender Bronze Dagger to claim the Tiger Breath!
