About Advent of Ascension
Advent of Ascension (also called Nevermine; abbreviated as AoA) is a large action and adventure mod for Minecraft. The mod was created by Xolova, and is currently being developed by Tslat, with Ursun and NeoVolt as artists, and Firch as a sound artist.
Advent of Ascension is a mod with a large amount of content. Gameplay in the mod includes exploring 21 dimensions, each with its own generation, structures, mobs, blocks, and items. While traveling through the dimensions, the player can mine ores, locate structures, and battle entities with various abilities.
The player can gear up in one of the mod's many armor sets, most having a special ability granted to the player when worn. One may also choose between a large selection of weapons, ranging from melee weapons like swords, to ranged weapons, such as bows, guns, and staves. With the new gear in-hand, the player can potentially battle one of the mod's 29 bosses.
Along the way, the player can also train various skills, which can grant the player access to new areas of the game, and give the player access to new items or resources.
A beta for the new 3.5 update, which ports the mod to 1.16.5, was released on 20 March 2021. The download for this beta is available here.
Like all betas, this version is not considered stable. Game-breaking bugs may occur, and some dimensions are unfinished (see below). It is not recommended to use it in any important worlds without backups.
The update also features large changes to in-game content.
Many dimensions have their generation and concepts redone.
For example, L'Borean was changed to be entirely underwater, with its mobs remodeled to work as swimming aquatic creatures.
Some of these changes have yet to be completed, leaving the dimensions unfinished. This is the primary reason for the update's current beta state.
Large-scale removals, moves, and sweeping changes:
Removal of a significant number of mobs (particularly in the Overworld) and moving several other mobs to other dimensions.
Removal of events, tied closely with the above change.
All hostile mobs being changed to grant Hunter experience up until Hunter level 10.
