Lifesteal

Every time you kill a player, a heart is removed from their base health and added to yours. If all a player's hearts are lost, they get eliminated.

This pack adds the classic lifesteal mechanics as well as more advancements and a natural way to trade hearts with others.

(Note: Enviromental deaths do not count. Just because you forgot your elytra, or your shield doesn't mean you lose a valuable heart!)

Features

  • Heart System: Hearts are transferred between players from the victim to the killer immediately upon death. Maximum hearts you can reach is 20 hearts.

  • More Advancements: 9 new advancements are added, each related to the new added mechanics. They can be found in the adventure tab.

  • Elimination: Once a player reaches 0 hearts, they will automatically be put in spectator mode, and their death will be announced to the server. (Player respawning may be added in the future)

  • Heart Trading: Players can peacefully trade and deal hearts through the new 'heart bottle'.

  • And more! New sounds, optimisations, admin commands etc.

Heart Trading

Heart bottles can be crafted by throwing 1 thick potion, 1 redstone dust and 1 glowstone dust on the ground.
