Requirements

The Fabric version requires Fabric API. No dependencies for the NeoForge version.

JEI is highly recommended to view recipes but optional.

Gameplay

The philosophy behind the mod was to create magic spells that are intuitive and fun to use while keeping crafting mechanics simple and straightforward. It aims to mostly mimic vanilla Minecraft aesthetics and mechanics.

Getting started

First you need to obtain Mana Root from village loot chests. Plant it to grow more of it, you will need a lot. Mana Root can be smelted into Mana Essence in the furnace. This is needed for crafting and fueling the Mana Infuser.

The Mana Infuser will be used to produce Shimmersteel (infuse iron ingot with diamond), a crafting material for the tools and machines, and Raw Spell Gems (infuse amethyst with lapis lazuli), that you can then craft into the actual spells.

Tools and Machines

Wand

Your tool to cast spells. Casting costs durability. There is a new Recharge enchantment for the wand which passively repairs durability.

Astral Bow

A bow that doesn't require any arrows in your inventory. Accepts crossbow enchantments instead of bow enchantments. Insert potion gems for tipped arrow effects.
