HARDCORE EVOLUTIONS

H A R D C O R E (Tensura)

A race-and-skill progression pack built around Tensura. 296 mods, 22 of them from the That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime universe — and an evolution tree rewritten end to end.

---

The tree, rebuilt

The pack runs Tensura Hardcore NDC, an addon made for it: 31 new races and 31 ultimate skills across seven bloodlines.

Bloodline	Where it ends
Slime	Intelligent → Tempest → Ultimate Slime · Abyss → Demon → Devil Slime · Angel → God Slime
Sculk Worm	four endings: God of Death, King of Hell, King of Heaven, King of the Seas
Human	Empire Lord, Octagrama Lord — and one route that never shows up in the menu
Attuned Wyrm	the four True Dragons: Veldanava, Velzard, Velgrynd, Veldora
Goblin / Oni	Divine Hobgoblin → Dreadmaw · Jigoku · Nirvana
Wispfolk / Elemental	Elemental Queen · Fujin
Vampire	Dracula

Every race has its own requirements, stats and route. No "grind EP and click evolve": there are essences to hunt, an awakening to earn, and skills to master first.

The secret routes

Two races do not appear in the evolution tree. No requirement list will ever show them, and no amount of EP will unlock them.

The Darkness Core is the only way in — and it is not consumed. Use it while playing the right race, and the path opens.

What was rebalanced

This isn't just content bolted on. The pack changes how progression feels:

• No punishment for getting strong. Tensura scales down the EP you gain as your own EP climbs it's worth.
• 102 mobs with hand-tuned EP, including bosses from Cataclysm and Mowzie's.
• One entrance per destination. In stock Tensura two different races can reach the same place. Here, Wicked Oni only from Kijin, Mystic Oni only from Enlightened Ogre, Divine Oni only from Spirit Oni, Jigoku only from Divine Fighter. Your choice sticks.

The rest of the pack

Bosses and world — Cataclysm, Mowzie's Mobs, Alex's Mobs and Ice and Fire give you something to hunt once Tensura starts feeling easy. Tensura boss structures scattered across the world.

Parallel progression — Apotheosis, Iron's Spellbooks and Ars Nouveau, wired into Tensura through dedicated compat mods.

Guidance — FTB Quests with 5 MB of content, plus six datapacks bridging Tensura to Cataclysm, Mythical Agriculture and Artifacts.

It runs — Distant Horizons, Sodium, ModernFix and C2ME. A 296-mod pack that doesn't demand a 32 GB machine.

Built on the work of the Tensura and Tensura: Mysticism teams. If you enjoy what you play here, go star the mods holding it all up.
