Runeborn Ascension

Quickstart

1. Pick a class — When you first join a world with Runeborn Ascension installed, you are prompted to choose one of three classes: Ranger, Knight, or Defender. Your choice shapes which stats you will invest in.
2. Grab a Stat iPhone — Craft one immediately to monitor your level, stats, and progress at a glance.

1. Mine your first custom ore — Look for [Common] Embersteel Ore or Mooncopper Ore in normal stone layers and smelt them into ingots.
2. Craft a Rune Fang — Your first Rare weapon, made from an iron sword, a Strength Rune, and an amethyst shard.

1. Open the Runeborn Shop Tool — Craft it and use it to browse the BW Coin shop economy and spend coins on upgrades and items.

Overview

Runeborn Ascension is a full RPG overhaul for Minecraft Bedrock. It layers a level 1–100 progression system onto survival, complete with classes, spendable stat points, scaled enemies, rarity-tiered loot, an entirely new set of ores and gems, 90 custom weapons across six weapon families, Ascendant gear that grows with you, a warp system, a coin economy, an Upgrade Forge, and a persistent on-screen clock and stat tracker. Every part of the game — combat, mining, crafting, and movement — is touched by the mod.

What It Adds

Classes and Stats

At the start you choose one of three classes:

As you level up you earn Class Cookie points to spend in five stat trees: Might, Guard, Mobility, Wisdom, and Mastery.

Rarity Tiers

All Runeborn items have a colour-coded rarity displayed in their name:

Ores and Gems

Ten new metal ores generate in the world, each smelted in a furnace or blast furnace into ingots used for crafting:

Ten gem ores also generate and drop cut gems (1–2 per block) used for rune socketing, crafting, and upgrade recipes:

Aquamarine, Onyx, Topaz, Amethystine, Jade, Ruby, Sapphire, Opal, Citrine, Prismatic.

Weapons

Ninety weapons span six families — Swords, Staffs, Bows, Spears, Guns, Whips — with individual rarity, durability, and enchantability. Weapons range from the Common Novice Blade up through the Rare Rune Fang, Epic Ascendant Greatsword, Legendary Rebirth Blade, Mythic Cubic Blade, Comic Pixel Blade, and Infinity God Blade.

Armor and Tools

Full armour sets mirror the gear tiers:

• Ascendant (Epic) — Helmet, Chestplate, Leggings, Boots
• Rebirth (Legendary)
• Cubic (Mythic)
• Pixel (Divine)
• God (Infinity)

Matching pickaxes exist for Rebirth, Cubic, Pixel, and God tiers.

Enemies

Two notable custom enemies roam the world:

• Rune Lich — Drops Wisdom Runes, Agility Runes, and rarely the Ascendant Greatsword, plus a Base Raid Shop Book guaranteed each kill.
• Ascendant Knight — Drops Rune Fangs, Strength Runes, and Vitality Runes.

Both enemies scale to your progression level.

Runes

Four stat runes drop from enemies and can be socketed into gear:

• Strength Rune, Vitality Rune, Agility Rune, Wisdom Rune

Three skill runes exist as well: Flame Slash, Frost Wave, and Gale Dash — each with its own activation sound.

Blocks

Custom blocks for defence and decoration:

• Oak Barricade, Stone Barricade, Iron Barricade, Obsidian Barricade
• Rune Reinforced Wall, Lichproof Barrier, Spiked Defense Block
• Healing Bastion Block
• BW Coin Block (compact coin storage)
• Event Bench (BW Coin-powered crafting station)

How To Use

Stat iPhone

Hold the Stat iPhone and use it to see your current level, class stats, and other on-screen information.

Runeborn Shop Tool

Hold the Runeborn Shop Tool and interact to open the BW Coin shop. Spend BW Coins on items, upgrades, and event goods. Coins can be compacted into BW Coin Blocks for storage.

Cubic Backpack

Equip the Cubic Backpack to gain extra portable inventory. Expand it further with Storage Upgrades (tiers 1–5) slotted into it. Install a Backpack Crafting Upgrade to craft anywhere, or a Backpack Smelting Upgrade to smelt on the go.

Upgrade Forge

Place the Upgrade Forge to access a dedicated station for applying enchantments, upgrade cookies, and rune sockets to your gear.

Mythic Warp Cookie

Craft the Warp Cookie and use it to open the personal warp menu. You can:

• Set a home location
• Create up to 12 named personal warps
• Teleport across dimensions (the mod scans for a safe landing spot automatically)
• Jump to specific biomes or random safe locations
• Return to your bed or world spawn

Runeborn Clock

The Runeborn Clock displays in-game timers, countdown alarms, and on-screen stats in the sidebar. It also tracks a persistent real-life playtime timer that only increments while the world is actively running. The clock cooperatively shares the sidebar with other mods by rotating its display in 25-second windows.

Event System

Use the Event Bench (crafted with BW Coins and a crafting table) during active events. Event Tokens drop from event activities; combine them with wheat and wheat seeds to bake an Event Cookie, which is an ingredient in advanced cookie crafting.

Rebirths

Three rebirth tracks — Normal, Cubic, and Pixel — allow you to reset and grow more powerful, unlocking higher gear tiers and stat multipliers.

Abilities And Mechanics

Skill Runes

Equipping skill runes unlocks active abilities:

• Flame Slash — A fire-based melee strike.
• Frost Wave — A cold burst that emanates from the player.
• Gale Dash — A rapid forward dash.

Each skill has a unique activation sound and can be triggered in combat.

Immersive Feedback

The mod plays distinct audio cues when you pick up runes, complete raid waves, finish events, apply upgrades, or level up, giving moment-to-moment feedback during play.

Survival Tool Requirements

Certain blocks and activities require appropriate tools, keeping survival-style gating in place even as your gear scales far beyond vanilla materials.

Scaled Monsters and Elites

Enemies — including elite variants and bosses — scale their stats to match your current level, ensuring combat stays challenging throughout the 1–100 level range.

Progression And Strategy

Early game (Levels 1–20): Mine Embersteel and Mooncopper, craft a Stat iPhone, kill Ascendant Knights for Strength and Vitality Runes, and build your first rune-socketed weapons.

Mid game (Levels 20–60): Progress into Stormsilver, Voidiron, and Sunplatinum. Hunt Rune Liches for Wisdom Runes and guaranteed Shop Books. Invest Class Cookie points heavily into your class's primary stat. Craft and upgrade your Cubic Backpack for maximum inventory efficiency. Build the Upgrade Forge to start applying enchantments and rune sockets to Ascendant gear.

Late game (Levels 60–100): Chase Frostnickel, Bloodcobalt, Astral Tin, Rune Lead, and Dawn Mythril. Assemble full Rebirth → Cubic → Pixel → God gear sets. Trigger Rebirths to multiply your power further. Use the Warp Cookie's dimension-crossing teleportation to efficiently farm biome-specific resources across the Overworld, Nether, and End.

Economy tip: BW Coins are the primary currency for the shop and advanced crafting. Farm event waves, defeat elites, and smash BW Coin Blocks to bulk-manage your coin supply. The Event Bench opens additional shop options only available during active events, so stock Event Tokens when you can.
