Eidolon
Eidolon - noun.
1. a phantom, spectre, or shade.
2. an ideal person or thing.
This is a patched version of the mod Eidolon which provides patches and fixes to specific things in the mod.
Original Description:
Introduction
Eidolon is a magic mod that draws on a lot of different inspirations, with aspects of alchemy and theurgy. It takes a bit of a dark perspective, also featuring mechanics themed around necromancy and soul manipulation. If you have ever wanted to play as a dark mage, performing strange rituals and communing with dark gods, this is the mod for you.
To get started with Eidolon, craft the Ars Ecclesia:
This book contains documentation of all the mod's features, including crafting recipes.
With it, you have everything you need to get started with the mod!
Rituals
Using shards of pure soul energy, activate powerful rituals at the brazier. Create new items, summon monsters, and ward huge areas from hostile creatures.
Theurgy
Build an altar and pray to the dark lord. Perform sacrifices, upgrade your altar, improve your reputation with them, and they might reveal to you new knowledge or grant you new abilities...
Artifice
Perform alchemy at the crucible, and tinker with magic items at a new workbench. Using soul shards and a huge variety of other ingredients, take your pick of a large selection of magical weapons, tools, armor, and curios.
...and much more!
There's lots to explore in Eidolon, and this will only expand with further updates. The mod is currently quite early in development, but there are quite a few neat features lined up for upcoming updates. So stay tuned!
Other Info
Mod compatibility:
Eidolon requires the Curios mod.
Eidolon supports Just Enough Items for all crucible recipes, workbench recipes, and rituals.
FAQ:
Can I use Eidolon in a modpack?
Yes, you can use this mod in any modpack, for any launcher.
Will Eidolon ever be ported to Fabric?
I only have so much time, unfortunately. Forge has more mod selection and I'm more familiar with it, so I'm going to be sticking with it for the foreseeable future.
Can you backport Eidolon to 1.12/13/14/15?
This is also not currently planned. Consider updating to play with Eidolon and all the other new mods!

Will you ever port this to 1.18 and newer? Or is this patch as well as the original abandoned?
In reply to kirse88:
There are no plans too, however there is a 1.18.1 branch that does "work" and just needs to be ported to 1.18.2 and polished up if anyone wants to submit a PR.
should i report issues with eidolon here? seems like original mod is abandoned
game crashes when using soulfire wand and doesn't even give a crash report :((
Will there be version 1.18.2 or 1.19.2?
theres a fix about time rituals? because they creates a social problem for players.
In reply to nz49:
Most mods have similar issues. I wouldn't really call this needing a "fix", its more of a inconvenience
So, if you made those fixes, are you also able to port this mod to newer versions?
In reply to thekubapacksmp:
I didn't make most of the fixes others did, but I also don't want to port the mod because eidolon should be getting an official port soon and is beyond the scope of this project.
In reply to EndangeredNayla
That's not what elucent has been saying lately, from what i know that update is as good as cancelled
In reply to thekubapacksmp:
I'll think about it
In reply to EndangeredNayla:
Update: Elucent had cancelled a 1.18 port. You're our saving grace for an Eidolon 1.18.2+
In reply to EndangeredNayla:
me again
i've been missing magic mods a lot lately, would you be willing to share your decisions regarding my request?
No changelog or information about which fixes were implemented. I looked over the commits in Github and this is what I got.
1. Eidolon ores can now be used as beacon blocks
2. Eidolon ores can now only be mined by at least an iron pick axe, This was intended but the code was missing a call.
3. Wraiths will now show up as having their own sound text show up for subtitles rather than displaying the sound text for the Stray mob
4. Added Portuguese localization
5. Added Chinese localization
6. Changed the license to the BSD3 License for all future work under this project.
In reply to NeuromancerWG:
Eidolon has always been under the BSD3 license
I needs this mod along whit Eidolon? and what are the fixes?
version number 2.7.8 vs 2.7 breaks compatibility with the Sanguine Arsenal add-on mod.
In reply to really_cool_fox:
i can fix that
In reply to EndangeredNayla:
Thank you!! I really appreciate the quick response. Was able to get this into my servers updated pack
