A complete remake of Tribulation (original is on CurseForge), starting with this indev, super unfinished version.
To unlock Mage path, kill a Veil Spirit (white glowy mob, spawns at night) with mage armor (red and gold + staff) to become ascended (you start at ascension 1, higher ascension means more power).
Mages use veil (mana) to cast spells.
Increase mist (max mana) by casting spells.
As a mage, you always have 1 spell available which is the fly spell (press R to use).
Press = for appraisal mode (see other people's mana). Hold = for half a second or more and let go to open spell equipping menu.
To use spells, use Z X C V keybinds.
Kill Veil Spirits to get spell books.
To increase ascension, craft a Spirit Altar and right-click. If you have enough max mana, you will ascend.
Good luck! Enjoy.
