Ars N Spells Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I choose which mana pool to use?
Open the mod settings menu and select your preferred Mana Mode: ISS Primary uses Iron's mana for everything, Ars Primary uses Ars Nouveau mana for both systems, Hybrid merges them into one bar, Separate keeps them distinct, or Disabled runs them independently. Your choice affects how all spellcasting draws from mana across both mods.
Can I use Ars Nouveau spells in my Iron's spellbook?
Yes. Create your custom Ars spell, place it in a Spell Loom to turn it into a scroll with a custom name and icon, then use the Spellbook Binding ritual to attach up to eight scrolls to your Iron's spellbook wheel. Press your spell wheel key to cast them.
Do my robes and armor bonuses stack between the two mods?
Yes, equipment, enchantments, and curios that boost mana or spell power now apply to both Ars Nouveau and Iron's Spells 'n Spellbooks without conflict, so you only need one set of gear.
What is the resonance bonus and how do I use it?
The resonance bonus increases your spell damage when your mana bar stays near full. Keep your mana high during combat to activate this bonus, and use the Mana Infusion or Mana Well rituals for quick in-combat recovery if you need to top up fast.
How do Source Jars work and do they lag the server?
Place Source Jars near players to provide passive mana regeneration to everyone in range. They are designed to regenerate mana without causing server lag, making them safe for multiplayer.
Can I remove a spell from my gear and use it elsewhere?
Yes, use the Spell Uninscription ritual to remove inscribed spells from items so you can reuse the gear or inscribe a different spell onto it.
What happens if I use Hybrid mana mode with both mods' equipment?
Both mods' mana and regeneration bonuses feed into the same unified mana bar, so all your equipment works together seamlessly without double-stacking or conflicts.
How do I cycle through multiple spells on one inscribed item?
Sneak and right-click on any item with inscribed spells to cycle through the attached spells and select which one to cast.
Do spell affinity and progression track across both mods?
Yes, the mod uses a shared progression and affinity mechanic that tracks your spell usage across both Ars Nouveau and Iron's Spells 'n Spellbooks together.
Can I scale Ars spell power using Iron's spell attributes?
Yes, spell power attributes and elemental damage types from Iron's Spells 'n Spellbooks can scale the power of your Ars Nouveau spells, allowing cross-mod synergy.
