How to Equip and Benefit from Passive Charms

Equipping Your Charms

Dark Utilities includes passive charms that provide continuous survival benefits without requiring activation keybinds. A charm works as long as you keep it equipped in any of the following locations:

  • Anywhere inside your standard player inventory,
  • In your offhand slot, or
  • In a charm accessory slot if you use compatible accessories mods such as Curios API or Trinkets API.

Every charm includes an in-game tooltip detailing its exact functionality.

Selecting Charm Effects

Choose the charm that matches your current survival objective:

  • Sleep Charm: Completely stops phantom-spawning insomnia from building up. Over time, it also clears any existing insomnia you have accumulated. When using a bed, the charm allows you to fall asleep right away without waiting through the standard settling delay.
  • Portal Charm: Eliminates portal waiting delays by cutting down portal cooldown time. This allows you to step through Nether Portals and other supported dimensional gates almost instantly instead of standing in the portal frame.
  • Warding Charm: Protects against combat debuffs by causing negative status effects to expire twice as fast as normal. Note that the Warding Charm does not accelerate the removal of ambient status effects, such as area buffs and debuffs originating from beacons.
