Crystal Magic

Crystal Magic is a Minecraft mod that introduces throwable spell crystals, offering new options for combat, mobility, and crowd control. Instead of traditional mana bars or spellbooks, magical power is condensed into stackable crystals crafted through altar rituals.

How It Works

Progression follows a clear sequence from resource gathering to ritual crafting:

1. Mine Ores: Find Crystal Ore or Deepslate Crystal Ore underground to collect Crystal Shards.
2. Craft Blank Crystals: Combine shards to craft inert Blank Crystals.
3. Build the Ritual Setup: Place a Ritual Altar in the center and surround it with Ritual Pedestals.
4. Perform Rituals: Place a Blank Crystal on the central altar, put catalyst items on the surrounding pedestals, and create specialized spell crystals.

The Crystal Arsenal

All crystals stack up to 16 and activate immediately upon being thrown.
