Natural 20
Diablo loot. Skyrim dialogue. The d20 has the final word.
Natural 20 is an RPG mod for Hytale that combines D&D-style quests and dialogue with ARPG-style loot and progression. Multi-phase quests with d20 skill checks are the core gameplay loop. Leveling, loot, and tiered encounters scale to support questing.
Features
Multi-Phase Quests
Skyrim-style quests split into multiple phases, each paying its own XP and a freshly rolled item. Six objective types are available: Collect Resources, Kill Mobs, Kill Boss, Fetch Item, Peaceful Fetch, and Talk to NPC. A three-phase quest pays three rewards, not one bundle at the end.
Dialogue & Skill Checks
Conversations branch on real d20 rolls. Pick a [Persuasion] or [Intimidation] response, watch the dice land, see whether you clear the DC. Each NPC tracks disposition with each player on a 0–100 scale, swinging skill checks into advantage or disadvantage.
Ability Scores & XP
Six D&D ability scores (STR, DEX, CON, INT, WIS, CHA) from 0 to 30 drive every dice roll, gear affix, and combat formula. Earn XP from every quest phase to level up to 40, spending ability points to grow the stats that fit your build.
Loot & Gear Affixes
Items roll across five rarity tiers with affixes from a dozen families: crit, bleed, life leech, elemental damage, resistances, and party buffs. Every affix scales with the matching ability score.
Champion & Boss Encounters
Nat20 mobs spawn in packs led by named bosses, tinted by difficulty tier from green Uncommon to gold Legendary. Higher tiers stack affixes, hit harder, and drop more loot.
Party Play
Accept a quest with a party and the whole group locks in. Progress is shared, every eligible member rolls their own unique item at turn-in, and friendly fire is blocked even on PVP-enabled servers.
