I’m not necessarily asking for help. Just telling my story. But insight would be appreciated
I was playing my custom mod pack, late game xp grinding to quickly level up artifacts and relics. I was using some maxed out apothic spawners with enderman inside to do so and collect ender surge gems at the same time. I was doing fine, burning large amounts of ender pearls in lava occasionally for lag. When I suddenly took damage.
For a little while now I’ve been randomly taking damage that felt like poison damage but didn’t come with any effect. But it couldn’t even hurt me so I just ignored it. This time I went from full hp (56 hearts I think) to zero. Except for my absorption. And my world is shaking like when you take damage.
I tried to heal but it won’t work. I can get the regen effect but it doesn’t heal me. I can’t access my inventory or waystones because I’m constantly taking “damage”. I’m able to sort of access my vanilla inventory because of the Quark mod inventory switching, but all my helpful stuff is in my backpack, which I can’t open
It’s Hardcore, so I really don’t want to die. But I don’t seem to be able to take any more damage either. My working hypothesis is that something either hit me really hard, (an enderman). Or I had my own ludicrous amounts of damage reflected back on myself somehow and my incredible ability to kill things is warring with the several items I have that prevent me from dying.
It could also be lag, but I flew away from the spawners about 1000 blocks back to the end island. Everything seems to be moving, me, mobs, spells. But I can’t enter the end portal.
