🚀 Progressive Tiers

Progressive Tiers is a dynamic entity enhancement system that breathes new life into Minecraft's combat experience. By categorizing mobs into different tiers based on their health, the mod introduces a scaling difficulty system where every encounter is unique.

🛡️ Core Mechanics

Tier System

Mobs are divided into three tiers based on their maximum health (configurable):

• Tier 1: Common mobs.

• Tier 2: Stronger entities that exceed the Tier 1 threshold.

• Tier 3: Elite monsters that exceed the Tier 2 threshold.

The "Quality" Logic

While Tiers set the baseline, Quality is the ultimate factor in a mob's strength. To keep gameplay unpredictable, we use a probability-based system:

• Higher Tiers have a much better chance of spawning with high Quality.

• Randomness: A Tier 1 mob has a rare chance to become Quality 3, while a Tier 3 mob might occasionally only be Quality 1.

• Visuals: Quality 3 and Bosses will have a Glowing effect, making them instantly recognizable from a distance.

Quality Levels & Attributes

• Quality 1: 0-1 Low-level traits. (Basic particles)

• Quality 2: 2-3 Mid-level traits. (Enhanced particles + Health boosted to Tier 1 limit if lower)

• Quality 3: 4-5 High-level traits. (Epic particles + Health boosted to Tier 2 limit if lower)

• BOSS: 5 Max-level traits. (Legendary particles + Glowing)
