I'm playing Ascendra and a fun glass cannon build has emerged while browsing the items list but I have a problem! I need to keep my hp to a very low amount to benefit from a lot of items and there seems to be no way to do that. I need to keep my max hp unchanged while setting and keeping my CURRENT hp to 1hp or something. Only way I've found is by making a command block do it for me constantly but that would prevent me from dying easily aswell so it's not ideal. Status effects wouldnt work because I'm planning on clearing them to prevent deaths.

Any ideas and thoughts?
