Blood Magic: Alchemical Wizardry Discord

Gruesome? Probably. Worth it? Definitely!

Information

Have you ever picked up a magic mod for Minecraft, and thought that it was too tame? Was there not enough danger involved when creating your next high-tech gadget? Bored with all of those peaceful animals just staring at you without a care in the world? Well then, I am glad you came here!

Blood Magic is an arcane art that is practiced by mages who attempt to gather a vast amount of power through utilizing a forbidden material: blood. Even though it does grant a huge amount of power, every single action that is performed with this volatile magic can prove deadly. You have been warned.

Installation Instructions

This mod requires "Minecraft Forge" in order to operate. It is incredibly easy to download and set up, so might as well get to it!

  1. Download Forge. Usually "Recommended" is best - you want the "universal", not the source. Forge also has an "install" option now, so all you need to do is launch that program and it will make a lovely Forge profile. If you haven't, look up how to use the installer and the new 1.6.x launcher if you are confused!

  2. Download the latest version of BloodMagic from Curseforge.

  3. Place the mod in the mods folder of your .minecraft. If you are unsure of where that is located, it is here: ../Users/you/AppData/roaming/.minecraft.

FAQ

Q: My weak blood orb doesn't show my current LP! Fix it please.

A: The mechanic for viewing the player's essence has changed due to some issues with mechanics. You now need a Divination Sigil or a Seer's Sigil to view a player's essence. It does other things, too, so it is worth it!

Q: Why am I dying so much?

A: It might be a good idea to make sure that you have enough essence to do a task. If you don't have enough essence to use one of your sigils, for example, it will take it out of your health. If your health reaches 0... Well, you don't have to be a genius to see what would happen. Note that Rituals will only stop working and give you nausea, not kill you, so you don't have to worry about them quite as much.

Q: Waffles?

A: Waffles!

Q: Where is x? When I watched spotlight "w," it had an item called x. Don't you need x to make y, before you can create z?

A: A lot of 1.12 and 1.7.10 Blood Magic stuff either hasn't been implemented yet in 1.16, or it's been dropped entirely for reasons of balance or by being superseded by something else. Your best bet is probably to check out the Patchouli Guidebook, the Sanguine Scientum. Everything that's currently in Blood Magic has an entry somewhere in there! Failing that, keep an eye on the changelogs.

Q: Way, I've just had an amazing idea! Why not add an in-game book just like the Thaumonomicon?

A: We've beaten you to it! Blood Magic now has a fully detailed in-game guide, courtesy of Patchouli. Craft yourself a Sanguine Scientum today!

Q: When I respawn, I'm not getting nearly as much LP from sacrificing! What gives? (AKA: What's this 'Soul Fray' effect I've got going on?)

A: This is due to my attempt to combat Zerg Rushing. When you die, you get a debuff called Soul Fray that, while active, significantly reduces the worth of your LP. Instead of dying and respawning again and again, why not look into making an Incense Altar? It's much more fun!
