Skill Issue

Skill Issue mod offers players a completely new approach to the leveling system in Minecraft. Instead of regular experience accumulation, here you get permanent character improvements when reaching new heights.
Core Concept
The main feature of the mod is the milestone system. These are experience levels that players reach for the first time. After achieving each milestone, your character receives permanent attribute improvements that are not lost when spending experience on enchanting or other purposes.
Attribute System
The mod uses Minecraft's standard attribute system but with progressive improvement. As milestone levels increase, parameters such as:
- Maximum health
- Armor toughness
- Knockback resistance
- Movement speed
- Attack damage
- Attack speed
- Attack knockback
By default, some attributes start below standard vanilla values, creating a sense of progression as the character develops.
Rewards and Commands
The reward system allows executing Minecraft commands when reaching certain milestone levels. You can configure:
- Displaying messages upon level up
- Item distribution
- Ability unlocks
- And much more
Death Penalties
Upon death, players lose a portion of achieved milestone levels (default - 20%). This adds a strategic element to gameplay and makes death more significant.
Chunk Experience
An innovative system limits the amount of experience that can be obtained in a specific area within a short time. The more experience collected in a chunk, the less players will receive from new experience orbs in that zone.
Special Blocks
