About this Mod
Requires Patchouli!
This mod is in alpha! It can be buggy and there will be more content in future!
Taintbound is a new magical mod that adds new mechanic of Taint. It can be useful for you to create new, tainted variations of items that usually have the same properties as the original, but are highly distorted and unstable, which makes them stronger but riskier. Also, this is the first Minecraft mod I have ever made.
The mod was inspired by Botania, so it has some similar ideas, but heavily modified.
The mod brings:
- 4 new enchantments, tainted versions of vanilla's
- "Challenge" mechanic, new way to upgrade tainted enchantments
- New materials, items and crafting stations
- New advancements
- Book guide
- And other...

Taintbound - это новый магический мод про новую механику Порчи. Она позволяет создавать порченые версии предметов и зачарований, которые, обычно, схожи с оригиналом, но действуют сильнее и непредсказуемей. Кроме того, это мой первый мод для Minecraft.
Мод был вдохновлен Botania, поэтому здесь могут быть схожие механики, но довольно сильно измененные.

- 4 порченых зачарований
