Undertaker's Attributes
Balancing classes in Minecraft modpacks has always been a delicate dance. You either get too few options, leaving every class feeling the same, or you turn to massive overhaul mods that change the very fabric of the game. Undertaker's Attributes, formerly known as FurAttributes, strikes the perfect middle ground. It is a simple, focused attribute mod designed to work seamlessly alongside systems like Passive Skill Trees, giving modpack developers and players granular control over combat, mobility, and survival without the excessive baggage of larger alternatives like Apotheosis.
This mod is all about providing the tools to create distinct, balanced classes. It adds a comprehensive suite of attributes that can be granted through other mods, commands, or your own custom items. The philosophy is simple: make it easier to balance classes by providing the raw stats, and let you decide how they are distributed. This keeps your game lean and your balance in your own hands.
Core Combat Attributes
Undertaker's Attributes for Minecraft introduces a robust set of offensive and defensive stats that change how you approach every fight. Whether you are a melee bruiser, a ranged sniper, or a tanky frontliner, these attributes let you define your role with precision.
Offensive Powerhouse Stats
- LIFE STEAL: A simple lifesteal function that scales from 0% to 100%, providing a 1-to-1 healing ratio. Perfect for sustain-heavy builds.
- ARMOR SHRED: Ignores a portion of your target's armor, up to 66% at maximum. This applies to all damage from attackers, not environmental damage like falling or void. It scales at 0.66% per attribute point, capping at 100 points.
- CRIT CHANCE & CRIT DAMAGE: Adds a basic crit modifier similar to landing airborne attacks, with a default 5% chance and a max of 100%. Crit Damage increases the damage of these hits, starting at 25% and going up to a massive 500%.
- CLEAVE: Your melee attacks deal Area of Effect (AoE) damage in a 3-block radius from the target. This deals up to 50% of the initial damage, scaling 1-to-1 up to 50 points.
- GLOBAL DAMAGE: A direct multiplier for any outgoing damage, scaling up to a staggering 10000%. This is calculated before enemy Damage Resistance, making it a true raw power stat.
Ranged and Projectile Specialization
For those who prefer to fight from a distance, Undertaker's Attributes offers several key stats. PROJ DAMAGE increases the damage of arrows and tridents up to 500%. PROJ SPEED increases their velocity, making long-range shots more viable. DUPLEX gives you a chance to fire an additional arrow, with a max of 400, which translates to a 400% chance to fire one extra arrow, effectively launching four projectiles. BOW DRAW SPEED reduces the time it takes to fully draw any bow or crossbow, scaling from -50% to 200%.
One word of warning from the developer: Bows already scale incredibly well with Power Enchantments. Use the Proj Damage attribute sparingly, or Archers will out-damage every other class in the game.
Defensive and Utility Attributes
Survivability is just as important as raw offense. This mod provides a variety of ways to mitigate damage, control the battlefield, and sustain yourself during long fights.
- EVASION: Gives you a chance to dodge incoming attacks entirely. It follows the formula: ((evasion * 0.05) / (1+evasion * 0.05) * 0.8).
- DAMAGE RESISTANCE: Reduces all incoming damage at a rate of 0.66% per point, up to a max of 66% at 100 points.
- CRIT RESISTANCE: Reduces the enemy's crit chance against you. The minimum damage you can take from a crit is hard-set to 1.1, making it a smart choice for PvP.
- RUNIC SHIELD: Consumes damage from attackers to create a protective shield around you. Once broken, it takes 7.5 seconds to begin regenerating.
- PASSIVE REGENERATION: Restores a percentage of your max HP every 50 ticks (2.5 seconds). This is very powerful on its own, with a max of 25% per tick, so use it very sparingly in your pack balance.
- HUNGER RESISTANCE: Reduces the hunger cost from sprinting and other actions on a 1-to-1 basis. At the absolute max of 100, it completely removes the need for food.
Specialized and Quality-of-Life Stats
Beyond the core combat stats, Undertaker's Attributes includes a few unique modifiers that open up new build possibilities. MANA LEECH works specifically with Ars Noveau and Iron's Spells, converting 1 attribute point into 1% of mana leech from your max mana. HEAL AMPLIFIER increases all incoming healing by up to 1000%. LOOT LUCK functions like the Fortune enchantment but as an attribute, increasing the chances of extra mob drops up to 100%.
You can also tweak the flow of time itself. DEBUFF TIME modifies the duration of negative effects on the player, ranging from -1000 to 100. Negative values increase the duration of debuffs on you, while positive values shorten them. BUFF TIME works in reverse for positive effects, increasing their effectiveness from -100% up to 1000%. Finally, MINING SPEED is self-explanatory, allowing you to adjust mining rates from -100% to 200% (yes, you can actually slow down mining if you want).
If you are looking to get started quickly, many players find that using the foxygame.net launcher simplifies the entire process. It offers a one-click install for mods like Undertaker's Attributes, ensuring you get the correct version for your Minecraft setup without manual file dragging. The launcher's built-in add-on catalog also helps you discover compatible mods like Passive Skill Trees, making it a great hub for building your perfect modpack.
Compatibility and Installation
Undertaker's Attributes is built for modern Minecraft versions, specifically supporting the Forge loader for versions like 1.20.1 and 1.21. It is designed as a lightweight library mod, meaning it does nothing on its own unless other mods or data packs tell it to grant attributes. This makes it a perfect foundation for your custom class system.
How to Install
Learning how to install Undertaker's Attributes is straightforward. First, ensure you have the correct version of Forge installed for your Minecraft client. Next, download Undertaker's Attributes for Minecraft from a trusted source like CurseForge or Modrinth. Place the downloaded .jar file into your mods folder, which is located in your .minecraft directory. Once you launch the game, the mod will be active, ready for you to assign its attributes via other systems.
To truly appreciate the mod's flexibility, you will want to pair it with a mod that can actually grant these stats, such as Passive Skill Trees, or use commands to apply them directly to players or items. The goal is to give modpack developers access to attributes without the added bloat of excessive changes. It simply makes it easier to balance classes, letting you create a unique and finely-tuned experience for your players. Whether you are building a hardcore PvP server or a deep RPG adventure, this mod provides the essential building blocks for your vision. It is a must-have tool for any serious modpack creator.
