Features
(Your vanilla experience will be further enhanced thanks to these features)
DarkBosses was originally made for the DarkRPG Fabric modpack but works as a standalone mod as well. This mod shows an extra advancement section (press L and click on dragon head) that displays how to summon a boss and where to find them. In total this gives information for up to 15 bosses including vanilla bosses. Each boss defeat will grant you 500 XP and it also shows a special 'Boss Defeated' message similar to the Dark Souls games.
You will need the following mods (and their dependencies) installed:-
- Spellblades and Such (1.20+)
- The Graveyard (1.20+)
