Ultracore – A Hardcore Survival Challenge

Ultracore

Is regular Hardcore too easy for you? This datapack aims to fix that. I’ve made several despicable changes to make your game challenging, but not cursed or impossible.

This datapack is multiplayer compatible so if you want to team up with your friends, go right ahead.

Features

• Natural regeneration is disabled. That means you need golden apples, regeneration suspicious stew or potions to heal.
• It’s always night
• Mobs have more gear and weapons
• Natural progression: as you progress, the difficulty increases
• Events: Mobs get even more powerful when it’s raining or thundering and there is a special blood moon event
• In multiplayer, you can be revived if you die but the process is costly and increases in price with difficulty
• Certain environments are more dangerous than others. For example, below y=0 you get weakness and blindness unless you hold a light source in your offhand
• Want a moment of peace? You can summon the sun with sun fragments to get a little break from the monsters
• There are 10 advancements you can earn (and some give you pretty nice loot)

There are many more features and if you want to see them all (as well as loot table odds, revival recipes and more) there is a PDF inside the datapack that has more info.

Note: This datapack will work fine in 1.20.x even though it might give you a warning

This datapack was inspired by ibxtoycat’s Nightcore series on YouTube

Good luck! I hope you enjoy the datapack.
