A method or item that will help speed up or lower the percentage requirement for the seven curses. I propose destroying a part of your soul for a jump in percentage. Or a really expensive consumable to reduce the percentage.

An alternative would be to have the ring require you have it on for a set amount of time, such as requiring it the player to have the ring on for 20 in-game days rather than a percentage of what they played.

The reason I want this is due to the absurd time requirement needed for the late game artifacts, The ring would require you to have it on for 2388 hours of a 100-day world. An accomplishment of course, but if you are playing a modpack and you don't even know the ring exists you could just be out of luck for that world for good, being locked out of the content with no way to catch up is a drag, especially after spending 50+ hours in a world already.

Have to agree with this. Getting that 99.5% is nearly impossible with average minecraft modpacks in servers. Unless you get it as soon as you spawn it's nearly impossible to get to that point before something happens and the server has to be reset, update corrupts the world, ect. A way to bump up that progress for a sacrifice would be very useful. Perhaps a sacrifice in exp to reduce the time spent not wearing the ring either as a fuel or in where you permanently only gain a 10nth of your exp until you fill out the time needed. That or have reading tomes speed up the progress via knowledge points.
