Overcharged Hearts

❤️ Overcharged Hearts ❤️

Permanent Extra Health for Survival & RPG Packs

Overcharged Hearts introduces a fully new health progression system to Minecraft.
Instead of relying on food-based regeneration, players can now unlock permanent extra hearts by gathering rare materials, crafting powerful items, and surviving dangerous encounters.

Designed for hardcore, RPG, Souls-like, and progression-heavy modpacks.

• 🔥 How It Works
• 🩸 Crystallised Heart Shards

Hostile mobs have a small chance to drop a special item:
the Crystallised Heart Shard.

Collect enough shards and you can craft an item that permanently increases your maximum Overcharge Capacity.

❤️ Overcharged Hearts

Crafting and consuming an Overcharged Heart gives you +1 HP (half a heart), up to a total of 20 extra HP (10 hearts).
These extra hearts appear as a separate absorption bar, but function as permanent HP:

• Regenerate automatically
• No hunger required
• Only regenerate outside of combat
• Lost completely when you die
• Regeneration rate: 1 HP per 100 ticks
• Combat lockout: 15 seconds

This makes the system feel like a blend of

• ✔ Hardcore progression
• ✔ Souls-like health management
• ✔ Permanent character growth

🛡 Mob Drop Chances

🌍 Overworld (hostile mobs only)

• 2% chance

🔥 Nether

• 4% chance

👑 Bosses

• Ender Dragon: 100%
• Wither: 100%

🧱 Mini-Bosses

• Warden: 50%
• Elder Guardian: 50%

🐑 Passive mobs

• Never drop shards

🍏 Golden Apple Adjustment

Golden Apples and Enchanted Golden Apples no longer grant Absorption hearts.
Your Overcharged Hearts are now the only source of absorption-style extra HP.

Totems of Undying are unchanged.
