It is inspired by the similar<br \/>\nmechanics in Terraria, but the difficulty also scales with Regional Difficulty to keep Minecraft style.<br \/>\nA detailed description of this mod can be found on the Wiki.<br \/>\n<b>Since version 0.4.0 this mod requires a Majrusz Library to work!<\/b><\/p>\n<p>![](https:\/\/github.com\/Majrusz\/MinecraftCommon\/blob\/main\/ProgressiveDifficulty\/game_stages.png?raw=true)<\/p>\n<p>Progress in the game is divided into stages, with each stage providing new difficulty tweaks and<br \/>\nimproving previous ones. At the moment there are three stages:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; <b>Normal Mode<\/b>, which starts at the beginning of the game.<br \/>\n&#8211; <b>Expert Mode<\/b>, which starts when the first player enters the Nether.<br \/>\n(or any dimension from other mods)<br \/>\n&#8211; <b>Master Mode<\/b>, which starts when you defeat the Ender Dragon.<\/p>\n<p>![](https:\/\/github.com\/Majrusz\/MinecraftCommon\/blob\/main\/ProgressiveDifficulty\/stuff.png?raw=true)<\/p>\n<p>### Groups of enemies<br \/>\nEnemies appear in groups with one leader and<br \/>\nfollowers who attack the same target as the leader.<br \/>\nFollowers are more likely to have weapons and leaders to have armors.<br \/>\n![](https:\/\/github.com\/Majrusz\/MinecraftCommon\/blob\/main\/ProgressiveDifficulty\/group.gif?raw=true)<\/p>\n<p>### Undead Army<br \/>\nThe Undead Army is a new raid which starts after killing a certain amount of<br \/>\nundead enemies. It has up to 5 waves, rewards the player with a treasure bag after<br \/>\nfinishing it, scales difficulty over time and scales difficulty with each player participating in!<br \/>\n![](https:\/\/github.com\/Majrusz\/MinecraftCommon\/blob\/main\/ProgressiveDifficulty\/undead_army.gif?raw=true)<\/p>\n<p>### Treasure Bags<br \/>\nNew Terraria-inspired bags that contain some extra loot and have<br \/>\na chance for one unique item. Each player receives their own Treasure Bag<br \/>\nwhen they help to defeat a raid\/boss. Currently, you can acquire them from:<br \/>\n<b>Fishing<\/b>, <b>Undead Army<\/b>, <b>Raid<\/b>, <b>Elder Guardian<\/b>, <b>Warden<\/b>, <b>Wither<\/b> and <b>Ender Dragon<\/b>.<br \/>\n![](https:\/\/github.com\/Majrusz\/MinecraftCommon\/blob\/main\/ProgressiveDifficulty\/treasure_bags.png?raw=true)<\/p>\n<p>### Bleeding<br \/>\nEach animal and human being can now bleed. This is an effect that deals damage similar<br \/>\nto poison and can be removed using a new item: <b>Bandage<\/b>. It is caused by many different sources<br \/>\nsuch as swords, spiders or even cactuses&#8230; but the more armor you have, the less likely you are to bleed.<br \/>\nIt is important to keep bandages with you as the Bleeding becomes more deadly with each stage!<br \/>\n![](https:\/\/github.com\/Majrusz\/MinecraftCommon\/blob\/main\/ProgressiveDifficulty\/bleeding.gif?raw=true)<\/p>\n<p>### Enderium Ingots<br \/>\nHowever, despite all the difficulty tweaks in the late-game, a new ore called <b>Enderium<\/b> can be found.<br \/>\nWith this ore, you can make Enderium Ingots which are used to upgrade Netherite armor and tools!<br \/>\n<b>Enderium<\/b> ore generates in End Stone and can be found in End structures as well.<br \/>\n![](https:\/\/github.com\/Majrusz\/MinecraftCommon\/blob\/main\/ProgressiveDifficulty\/enderium_ingot.png?raw=true)<\/p>\n<p>### And much more!<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>![](https:\/\/github.com\/Majrusz\/MinecraftCommon\/blob\/main\/ProgressiveDifficulty\/languages.png?raw=true)<\/p>\n<p>![](https:\/\/github.com\/Majrusz\/MinecraftCommon\/blob\/main\/ProgressiveDifficulty\/thanks.png?raw=true)<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Julia for sounds<br \/>\n&#8211; chechnyacool488, reyzex#1973, LolsShow, Faster Than Light team for the Russian translation<br \/>\n&#8211; muraokun for some of the sprites<br \/>\n&#8211; qsefthuopq, 1mtwtfss1, UDTakerBean for the Chinese translation<br \/>\n&#8211; kiryonn, maximemadani for the French translation<br \/>\n&#8211; Wallaby#8683, luskaner, spliitbtw for the Spanish translation<br \/>\n&#8211; baooduy for the Vietnamese translation<br \/>\n&#8211; IcyCrystal for retexturing all Enderium items and blocks<br \/>\n&#8211; unroman for the Ukrainian translation<br \/>\n&#8211; florian-berger for the German translation<br \/>\n&#8211; zacky0904 for the Traditional Chinese translation<br \/>\n&#8211; \u3082\u3075\u3056\u3068\u3046 (mohuzato) for the Japanese translation<\/p>\n<p>![](https:\/\/discord.gg\/9UF774WcuW)<\/p>\n<p>![](https:\/\/majruszs-progressive-difficulty.fandom.com\/wiki\/Majrusz%27s_Progressive_Difficulty_Wiki)<\/p>\n<p><\/center><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mod that progressively increases the game difficulty over time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":97815,"template":"","meta":{"_minecraft_slug":"majruszs-progressive-difficulty","_minecraft_project_id":"GGDBwjOg","_minecraft_author":"Majrusz","_minecraft_license":"MIT","_minecraft_downloads":904048,"_minecraft_follows":353,"_minecraft_client_side":"required","_minecraft_server_side":"required","_minecraft_storage_type":"zip","_minecraft_archive_name":"majruszs-progressive-difficulty.zip","_minecraft_size_bytes":1982424,"_minecraft_version_count":3,"_minecraft_updated_at":"2026-05-16T14:15:09.597163Z","_minecraft_date_created":"2022-11-19T13:49:14.687381Z","_minecraft_date_modified":"2024-04-26T17:00:53.922485Z","_minecraft_project_url":"https:\/\/modrinth.com\/mod\/majruszs-progressive-difficulty","_minecraft_icon_attachment_id":97815,"_minecraft_imported_at":"2026-06-05T14:43:01+00:00","_minecraft_import_hash":"21c63df82c391d364c1a3a7772998554","_minecraft_versions":"","_minecraft_links":"","_minecraft_gallery":"","_minecraft_api_metadata":""},"mod_category":[87,97,104,89,137,158,98],"mod_loader":[106],"minecraft_version":[53,56,57,58,59,36],"class_list":["post-97814","mod","type-mod","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","mod_category-adventure","mod_category-fabric","mod_category-forge","mod_category-game-mechanics","mod_category-mobs","mod_category-neoforge","mod_category-quilt","mod_loader-forge","minecraft_version-1-18-2","minecraft_version-1-19-2","minecraft_version-1-19-3","minecraft_version-1-19-4","minecraft_version-1-20","minecraft_version-1-20-1"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
