Essence Reborn ✨
Step into the world of mobs! Obtain the Essence of the mobs you slay and harness their wondrous abilities!
There are currently 8 Essence types: Chicken, Cow, Skeleton, Breeze, Piglin, Enderman, Wither, and Warden! Each Essence provides powerful advantages in PvP.
Essence Reborn is mainly intended for PvP focused SMP servers, though it can still be enjoyed on other servers as well!

- Kill mobs to have a chance at gaining their essence
- Select an Essence
- Use /crystal to get an Essence Crystal
- Right Click / Sneak + Right Click whilst holding your Essence Crystal to activate your Weak and Strong Powers!
- Each Essence also has a passive power!
- Use an Essence Switcher to switch to a different Essence later on!
