Did you think that the climb was going to be the only release?
The cave sanctum is the first sanctum in a series of linear story-based dungeons. This first version is just an early proof of concept - the bosses are there, the mechanics are there, the loot is there but we still have to tie the narrative up in-game, which will be happening very soon.
This sanctum will be getting more updates over the coming days!

It seems as though there is some interest from you, the patrons, in keeping a development log of features of particular interest. As such, this blogpost comes with a vote for whether I should continue publishing these as I am or, if you would prefer, I restrict the posts on Patreon to be at least mostly about new content releases.

Hello everyone,
Today, for the first time in the nearly 6 years EliteMobs I’ve been working on EliteMobs for and for the first time in the 7 years I’ve been doing Minecraft plugins, I’ve released a set of features which depend on NMS code.
This is a landmark moment for me, and one that I wanted to make note of in a blogpost. That I have not written NMS code in the last 7 years is not a coincidence, it has been a sticking poin...

Hello everyone,
You may have noticed lately that a lot of things got updated, but I have not made any major announcements.
My plan was, as per usual, to push a lot of updates out and then do one big announcement alongside a video release for the enchantment system (and some other stuff).
However, a couple of days ago while I was in the middle of doing some bugfixing and finishing some of the release work, I started developing...

Ever wanted to have to defeat a boss in order to upgrade an item?
No? Well, this is awkward, because here are 10 excellent boss fights made just for that!
With a cool arena by Max, boss encounter design by Frostcone and models by MagmaGuy, these guys are just tough enough to be a challenge, but not so much that people will send you death threats when they lose the enchantment and potentially even lose the item the...

Howdy,
I am currently facing a bit of a dilemma with designing the core aspect of how the item upgrade system will work, and I think your feedback here will help me take a decision.
The general idea:
In the new item upgrade system, it is no longer possible to upgrade the level of an item, but it is possible to add any enchantment to elite items - as long as you have the corresponding elite enchanted book.
In EliteMobs...

The webapp is now finished, elite scripts are stable and working and EliteMobs is generally stable, so while we work on releasing all the content we've queued up over the last two months I want to run a poll to know what you want to see next from EliteMobs!

Hello patrons!
For the past few weeks I've been working on the EliteMobs webapp. It was initially going to just be an update, but for several technical and practical reasons it ended up being a full rewrite.
For the first release of the webapp only Elite Powers can be created through the webapp. This is the most complex configuration entry type, and everything else will only take a few hours to do.

Hello everyone,
Preparations for the numerous planned releases are going well, and today I got around to addressing one of my main concerns moving forward - how annoying it can be to hunt down every download page for EliteMobs.
To keep it short, today I released 3 big changes to the way EliteMobs downloadable content is structured:

The Frost Palace is the first EliteMobs Sactum!
It has 3 difficulties: normal, hard & mythic. Difficulties add reinforcements, powers, change loot drops and change the level sync.
This means that this is a 3-in-1 dungeon, where each difficulty will have a very different feeling to it!
This is release 1.0 of the dungeon, and it is considered to be complete, though further improvements may be made.
This is a very spec...

Hello everyone,
I have an important question for EliteMobs that needs careful consideration.
We are currently working on truly advanced combat mechanics, challenges where mechanics must be mastered and gear acquired to have a chance to actually beat the bosses.
However, we are still doing this in Minecraft, and that comes with its own challenges. We are modelling the encounters after MMORPG systems, and we already have the fi...

Hello everyone,
I have just released EliteMobs 8.2.0 which is an absolutely massive update to EliteMobs. Many of the systems added and tweaked are currently "invisible", as they are all preparation work for the upcoming instanced dungeons.
I made the video showcase above to show off just how powerful the Elite Scripts are. It's a small script I put together in a day, but I think the end result is quite nice.

Hey hey,
This is alpha 2 of EternalTD. Setup process is the same as alpha 1, and you don't need to redo it if it's already setup. You will, however, want to delete the current level config file, as the new one actually has well defined and far more interesting waves.
