It is a continuation of [Skillable](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/skillable) by Vazkii. Levelling skills up allows you to unlock traits and use more items. By default, many vanilla items are locked behind skill requirements.

For example, you cannot use a Diamond Pickaxe until you reach level 16 Mining. Items and blocks cannot be used or broken if you do not have the required levels.

</div>## Skills

Reskillable adds 8 skills to level up, each with traits that can be unlocked by levelling up. Traits give your character special passive boosts.

It completely overhauls the standard Minecraft experience with modified crafting recipes, thirst and temperature mechanics, diverse and hostile creature encounters, and a character skill system. Every decision matters from the moment you spawn, and survival is never guaranteed.

</td></tr></tbody></table>

## Getting Started

RLCraft has a steep learning curve. The tips below are essential for surviving your first few days, and are based on [Shivaxi's official guide](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/modpacks/rlcraft) on CurseForge.

### Your First Tools

<div id="bkmrk-right-click-to-pick-" style="background-color: #332941; padding: 12px 16px;">1. Right-click to pick up an item you're looking at, or crouch to pick up items in a radius around you.
2. Get flint by breaking gravel. Get sticks by breaking tree leaves.
3. Hold flint and right-click on a stone surface to smash it into flint shards. Combine a stick and a flint shard to make a flint knife.
4. Use the knife to cut grass for fibre. Three fibre makes one grass string.
5. Craft a flint hatchet using a stick, grass string, and flint shard.
6. Place wood on the ground and right-click it with the hatchet to chop it into planks. Do the same with planks to get sticks.
7. Rocks are scattered on the ground. Right-click to pick them up. Craft four together in a 2x2 to make cobblestone. A stick and cobblestone makes a dagger, a good starting weapon.

</div>### Survival Basics

<div id="bkmrk-drink-water-by-crouc" style="background-color: #332941; padding: 12px 16px;">- Drink water by crouching and right-clicking on a water source block with an empty hand. You can also drink from rain.
- Combat heat and cold with campfires, wool clothing, potions, ice armour, and similar items.
- Three wool makes a sleeping bag. Note that sleeping bags do not set your spawn point. Waystones set your spawn.
- Press **H** to see locational hit damage. Helmets are important. Without one, you will take headshot damage.
- At level 5, press **L** to choose your specialisation. Items list their skill requirements, so check these before assuming you can use new gear.
- String and grass string can both be crafted into wool. Birch wood can be crafted into paper.
- Exploring early and finding shelter is strongly recommended. Structures may contain useful starting items.
- If it looks like it will kill you, it probably will.

</div>## Key Features

### Survival from the Ground Up

RLCraft throws out the standard Minecraft survival loop entirely. You cannot punch trees for wood, blocks only drop items when harvested with the correct tool, and your first priority is finding sticks and flint just to craft a basic knife. Hydration and temperature are persistent threats that require constant management. Hostile creatures are significantly more dangerous than in vanilla, and many can kill you before you have any meaningful gear. The pack rewards patience, preparation, and careful play.

### Character Progression and Skills

RLCraft adds a skill and level system that gates equipment and abilities behind progression. Items list their skill requirements directly, so an iron sword might require level 8 in the Attack skill before you can use it. At level 5 you choose a specialisation that shapes how your character develops from that point. This makes early decisions meaningful and gives long-term progression a clear direction.

### Exploration and Creature Encounters

The world of RLCraft is filled with a huge variety of hostile and passive creatures from Lycanites Mobs, Animania, and other mods. Many enemies have unique abilities and attack patterns that require different strategies to deal with. Exploration is dangerous but rewarding, with structures around the world that can provide starting items and shelter if you can reach them safely.
