Climb Ladders Without Losing Stamina

Use Shift to Climb Safely

Climbing ladders normally drains your stamina with each block you ascend. However, the mod provides a free climbing method: hold Shift while on a ladder to climb slowly without spending any energy.

When to Use Shift-Climbing

Shift-climbing is ideal when:

  • Your stamina is low and you need to reach a high point
  • You're carrying heavy inventory items that increase climb costs
  • You want to preserve energy for combat or sprinting ahead
  • You're recovering from fatigue and need to move carefully

Speed vs. Energy Trade-off

Normal climbing is faster but costly. Shift-climbing is slower but free. Choose based on your situation:

  • In a rush with full stamina? Climb normally.
  • Low on energy or heavily loaded? Use Shift to climb at no cost.
  • Exploring cautiously? Shift-climb to stay ready for threats.

This mechanic lets you control the pace of your adventure. Plan your climbs around your current stamina and inventory weight to avoid getting stranded mid-ascent.
