Basic Skill Sets

The Basic Skill Sets mod enriches gameplay by adding unique combat abilities for each weapon type in Minecraft. Each skill comes with special animations and is implemented through the Spell Engine API, recreating the atmosphere of classic and modern RPG games.

Mod Features

By default, each weapon receives one unique ability determined by its type according to the Better Combat modification. Basic Skill Sets requires two mandatory additions: Better Combat and Spell Engine.

Future updates plan to expand the list of available skills. New abilities will serve as alternatives to existing ones rather than additions. All skills are available for use without the need to create special runes.
