Each skill levels from 1 to 99, granting permanent stat bonuses every level. Milestone rewards drop at Lv.25, 50, 75, and 99 — ranging from useful tools early on to legendary items like the Elytra, Trident, and Nether Star at max level.
📊 Stats
Six stats grow permanently as you level skills:
- ❤ Health — increases your max HP
- ⚔ Strength — increases melee damage
- 🛡 Defense — reduces incoming damage
- 🔩 Toughness — reduces armor penetration
- 🍀 Luck — improves loot and fishing drops
- ⚡ Swiftness — increases movement speed
Hearts always display as 2 rows regardless of how much HP you have. Your real effective HP is shown in the action bar.
📦 Collections
Break blocks and collect mob drops to fill out your collections. Each resource has 9 tiers with increasing thresholds. Rewards are weighted toward permanent stat bonuses, with item rewards at mid and late tiers — calibrated to how hard the collection actually is:
- Common resources (cobblestone, dirt): Golden Apples at tier 9
- Rare resources (ancient debris, wither skeleton, nautilus shell): Nether Star at tier 9
🐾 Pets
Raise pets that provide passive bonuses — XP multipliers, stat boosts, and more. Feed your active pet XP from any skill activity, level it up, and unlock stronger abilities. Pets come in multiple rarities.

PeakSkills server crashes on startup – what to do?
Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.21.11). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Server lagging with PeakSkills – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if PeakSkills consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
