RustRework is an opinionated rework of the default Origins. I think that Origins should provide interesting gameplay changes that you need to play around.
Changes:
Shulk
- Shulk's extra inventory now drops on death. I felt that, as someone who plays on servers with
keepInventory true, Shulk's main benefit (slots that keep on death), was pointless, and prevented people who might otherwise pick it from doing so, so I removed this aspect.
Blazeborn
- Blazeborn now has one level of natural soul speed. I just think that it's a nice touch.
Feline
- Feline no longer has the Weak Arms power, which effectively prevents any mining by making it only possible to mine when there are two or less adjacent stone blocks.
- Feline has been made a Carnivore to balance this out.
Elytrian
- Elytrian can now wear heavy armor, but it prevents them from flying. I find that the original ability often is annoying in modded settings, so now you have a tradeoff to wearing other armors.
- Elytrian now freezes above Y=128, giving the powder snow freeze effect if already in flight. If wearing elytra, you will not freeze. I find that this is an interesting downside that needs to be played around, and limits the usefulness of the main ability.
- In 1.2.11, being above Y=128 prevents taking off.
- In 1.3.0, the prevention of takeoff has been replaced with accelerated falling, causing you to drop out of the sky.
- Elytrian no longer has the launch ability. I think that having an innate way to launch yourself prevents players from utilizing other methods of propulsion.
- Elytrian no longer has the Claustrophobia power. I find that stacking status effect powers are simply bland and easily ignorable.
No other changes have been made.
