Basics

Mana

Wand of the ForestThe wand links everything. Bind mode: click a source (flower or spreader), then the target. Function mode: toggle pools (sneak), trigger altars and the elven gateway, rotate the Daffomill.

Redstone stops it; the redstone spreader fires on pulses … Mana PoolThe pool stores 1,000,000 mana (diluted: 10,000). Throw items onto it for mana infusion: iron → manasteel (3,000), ender pearl → mana pearl (6,000), diamond → mana diamond (10,000) and more.
