# Strixun: Trials of the Wild \u2013 A Curated Long\u2011Form Progression Modpack
\n> \u2139\ufe0f A hardcore survival and exploration modpack with **~250 carefully curated mods**, featuring my own creations \u2014 **Rituals**, a mystical totem\u2011magic system, and **Compressy**, a near\u2011infinite storage solution \u2014 woven naturally into long\u2011form progression, dangerous worldgen, and a world that pushes back.<\/p>\n
## Overview<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Pack A is a **progression\u2011focused kitchen\u2011sink modpack** with **~250 curated mods**, built for immersive adventuring, long\u2011form progression, and high replayability. It blends exploration, multiple skill systems (including **SimpleSkills**), and deeply tuned world generation with a tiered resource path that starts at wood and climbs through stone, copper, iron, and beyond. Every milestone feels earned, and every biome has a story to tell. ^_^<\/p>\n
Alongside the community\u2019s best mods, this pack includes **two custom mods I built specifically to enhance this experience**:<\/p>\n
###  Rituals \u2014 Totem Magic for Survival, Buffs & Automation
\nA mystical, lore\u2011friendly system that adds magical totems, area buffs, automated defenses, farming tools, and multi\u2011totem pattern rituals.
\nIt\u2019s powerful, but intentionally balanced \u2014 a toolset that rewards planning without trivializing survival.<\/p>\n
###  Compressy \u2014 Extreme Storage Without Tech Progression
\nCompress any block up to 32 tiers using standard crafting recipes.
\nPerfect for long mining trips, megabuilds, and keeping inventories clean without introducing late\u2011game tech shortcuts.<\/p>\n
Both mods are designed to **support** the pack\u2019s progression, not dominate it \u2014 they feel like natural extensions of the world.<\/p>\n
The intended playstyle is **hardcore\u2011leaning**: disabling raids and natural health regeneration is *recommended* for the full experience (campfires are your friend), Ironman mode is enabled in **SimpleSkills**, and the world is designed to push back. Server usage compatible, see changelog notes for mods to exclude from server (client-only stuff). \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

Punching trees is still allowed.
