Seems like it would be a fun mod to play around with. Any plans on making it Forge-compatible, based on dropping a .zip into the /mods folder? Compatibility with other mods would more than likely increase, which means you'd probably get even more downloads, assuming that is your goal.
Other than that, I think it would be fantastic to add differing levels of the abilities, with Mastery being the very end level. It would allow you to balance it a bit easier, as well as give the mod some cool new properties.
Actually there are different tiered abilities as well as mastery levels already in the mod. It is quite hard to make it just a /mods folder because it edits player changing stuff, although I know it still is possible I just have never spent time into it. I am currently trying to update the mod but since it is going from 1.2.5 to 1.4.7 it is running into many issues of some abilities not even working. I am not sure whether to post a test version of the 1.4.7 update sooner or just wait until I get all the abilities up and working again.
I stumbled upon this mod just now, got excited, and now after reading the information section am dissapointed.
I expected this to be more like the old LevelUp! mod, or actually anything like mcmmo. When I said this I mean leveling up skills like mining/digging etc. This is mostly just adding cheats/random things you get from xp levels. Nice mod, but I would download, maybe even donate, if you made a level up system, not xp shop system.

Thanks for the support. The mod is still being much developed and has a long way to go. I just lost development with it after 1.2.5 and never got around to do it. But after I fix up the mod for the latest version I will get going with new features.
1.4.7 Progress Update:
Got most abilities working up with the 1.4.7 update. Only need to get the experience buying working then a test version should be out.
Almost done porting over to Forge, still edits a few class files but should help with some compatibility! - Possbile LAN/SMP not sure at the moment.
Good news! The mod has finally been updated to Minecraft 1.4.7! This update requires Forge to run but adds a lot more compatibility to other mods and edits only 2 class files now. Remember to install Forge before you install the mod. The mod does not work by just dropping the zip into the /mods folder because it edits classes. Have fun with the new functionality of the abilities and have fun in 1.4.7!
Also, for the new version 1.4.7 I will be needing a new featured video, hit me up if you would like to record one.
Sigh, I spent a lot of time trying to update this mod over to Forge and get the mod working again to 1.4.7, but there seems to be very little downloads now compared to the old 1.2.5 version. There seemed to be much interest in the update but now that it seems there is little I may not update unless there for some reason much interest comes back. Please enjoy the current version and please download.
Well, 1.6.2 has been out for awhile; I do enjoy the idea of an xp shop where you can buy abilities for your character (specifically night vision etc), but the way you phrased it, it sounds like they're only on 10 min timers with 3 min cooldowns?
I would love to see this idea expanded upon to encompass shops, not just villagers, where you could trade xp levels (or coins from mobs) for raw materials, weapons and armor, or blocks for building.

Thanks for your interest in the mod but at the state it is currently at I do not think I will update it. There is not much interest in it anymore since other types of mods have replaced this. Also, I do not really have time to work on updating it.

Thanks. Glad you are excited! The mod has not been updated for almost a year. Any ideas you think should be added?
I possible may not, but it truly depends on interest of the mod.
