Sovereign Tier Chronicles Mod FAQ

This mod replaces the vanilla XP system with a Skill Shard economy displayed directly on your hotbar. Instead of gathering XP orbs, you earn Skill Shards by mining underground shard ore, completing advancements, or fishing up supply crates.

You use an Infusing Table surrounded by chiseled bookshelves holding enchanted books. The table reads the books inside the shelves and lets you spend Skill Shards to purchase those exact enchantments without consuming the books.

Higher equipment tiers require Quest Shards rather than regular Skill Shards to unlock. You can earn Quest Shards by taking and completing assignments from a Bounty Board.

Skill Shard ore generates deep underground across all three dimensions: the Overworld, the Nether, and the End. If you do not want to mine, you can also fish in water to pull up biome-themed supply crates that pay out shards.
