Symbol Magic[]
Getting started[]
Symbol Magic is a unique form of witchcraft within Witchery. It can be performed using a Mystic Branch. To obtain the Mystic Branch, the player will need to perform a Rite of Infusion, using a 7x7 circle and an 11x11 circle of ritual glyphs. It requires 3000 Altar power, with an Ent Twig and a Mystic Unguent as the foci items. It can only be performed at night.
Then, the player will need to become infused. Once the player has the Mystic Branch and is infused, they are ready to begin performing Symbol Magic.
Gestures[]
Symbol Magic uses gestures to perform effects. Gestures are defined as the way the player moves their Mystic Branch while the right mouse button is being held down. For example, moving the branch up twice, then left, then down will dig the targeted block. Performing gestures uses a very small amount of infusion power. If the gesture is valid, it will appear as text with the according name. If not, it will simply do nothing.
