How to Make a Vault Hunters Server

It transforms Minecraft into a roguelike RPG-style experience centered around exploration, loot hunting, and progression through a series of challenging vaults.
This guide will show you how to make a vault hunters server in just a few simple steps!
Vault Exploration: Enter randomized dungeon-like "Vaults," filled with monsters, traps, puzzles, and powerful loot. Each vault run is unique, providing an exciting and unpredictable gameplay experience.
Progression and Skills: Players level up by completing vault runs and gathering experience. Unlock and enhance abilities using skill points, such as increased damage, improved mining speed, and unique active skills.
Loot and Gear: Collect specialized gear with randomized attributes and rarities. Upgrade and customize gear to suit different playstyles, improving survivability and efficiency in vault runs.
Note: Please refer to creating a backup before uninstalling any files to avoid losing progress, and make sure to install the version compatible with the Minecraft Vault Hunters 3rd Edition mod pack, which you can see on their Curseforge app or site here.
