Magic From The East Wiki & Guide

Both Symmetry and Spirit schools use spell trees that you progress through by meeting prerequisites—typically casting lower-tier spells or gathering specific materials like Refined Jade or Crystallized Soul. Check your spell book to see which spells are available and what you need to unlock the next tier.

Symmetry magic uses jade energy and qi balance for defensive and crowd-control effects, with spells like Drapes of Reflection and Bagua Array Circle. Spirit magic focuses on soul manipulation and summoning allies, with spells like Soul Catalyst and Revenant of Honor dealing soul burn damage and providing combat support.

These materials are typically obtained through mining, crafting, or defeating specific mobs—check your mod's ore generation and loot tables. If you have jewelry expansions installed, you may also craft them using additional components.

Yes, you can learn and cast spells from both Symmetry and Spirit schools simultaneously, and the guide "Combining Symmetry and Spirit Schools for Hybrid Combat" covers strategies for using them together effectively.

Soul burn is a debuff applied by Spirit magic spells that deals damage over time and can be stacked for higher damage output. The guide "Farming Soul Burns and Maximizing Damage Output" explains how to layer multiple soul burn effects for maximum effect.

Summoned allies like Jiangshi, spirit samurai, and spectral foot soldiers have limited durations and will despawn after a time—you'll need to resummon them when they expire.

Cast Drapes of Reflection to spawn a barrier that automatically deflects incoming projectiles back at enemies, providing both defense and counterattack utility.

This mod is built as an addon for Iron's Spells and Spellbooks, so it requires that mod to function. Compatibility with other magic mods depends on their design, but there are no known major conflicts.

Begin with the "Getting Started with Symmetry Magic and Jade Energy" guide to learn foundational mechanics, then progress to Spirit magic once you're comfortable with basic casting and resource management.

Yes, both schools have spells effective against bosses—Symmetry offers crowd control and shields while Spirit provides high single-target damage and soul manipulation effects, though some boss mechanics may reduce effectiveness of certain debuffs.
