Innate Progression Wiki & Guide

You'll choose your technique early in progression, typically through a special item or interface. Each technique (Limitless, Shrine, Projection Sorcery, Cursed Energy Discharge) plays differently, so pick based on whether you prefer defensive spacing, close-range slicing, speed, or direct damage output.

Spirit grades scale with difficulty: Grade 4 spirits fall to wooden swords, Grade 3 needs iron, Grade 2 requires diamond, Grade 1 challenges netherite users, and Special Grade spirits are endgame threats. Match your gear tier to the grade to avoid getting overwhelmed.

Negative energy comes from negative emotions—the mod ties this to combat situations and defeating spirits. As you fight and level up, you'll accumulate negative energy that powers your cursed technique abilities.

The mod is designed around committing to a single technique for progression, so switching typically isn't intended. Plan your choice carefully before locking it in.

Your standard Minecraft weapon tier matters—wooden swords work for Grade 4, iron for Grade 3, diamond for Grade 2, and netherite for Grade 1. Your cursed technique abilities supplement your weapon, not replace it.

You'll take heavy damage and likely lose the fight. The mod encourages natural progression by matching spirit grades to weapon tiers, so hunt lower grades first to level up safely.

Defeating cursed spirits grants experience toward your chosen technique. Higher-grade spirits give more progression, so as you gear up, hunt tougher enemies to unlock stronger skills faster.

Yes, multiple players can hunt spirits together and each develop their own cursed techniques independently. Coordinate your gear levels to tackle spirits safely as a team.

The mod adds cursed spirits and visual effects but shouldn't cause major performance issues on standard hardware. If you experience lag, reduce the number of active spirits or lower particle effect settings.

Compatibility depends on the specific mod, but Innate Progression is designed as a standalone combat system. Test with other mods carefully, as ability conflicts or overlapping mechanics may cause issues.
