Micles Totem Of Reviving FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I craft a totem?
Both the Straw Totem and Diamond Totem have specific crafting recipes that you can find in the mod's crafting recipe section. The Straw Totem is cheaper to craft but has a failure chance, while the Diamond Totem is more expensive but always works.
What items charge the totems?
Each totem type requires specific charging items—check the mod's configuration or in-game tooltips to see which items work for the totem you're using. You charge by holding the charging item in one hand and the totem in the other, then right-clicking.
Can I use these totems in regular Survival mode?
These totems are designed specifically for Hardcore mode to revive dead players. In regular Survival mode, they won't provide much benefit since players respawn normally.
Why didn't the Straw Totem resurrect my friend?
The Straw Totem has a chance of failure built in—this is intentional and the trade-off for its lower crafting cost. Use a Diamond Totem if you need a guaranteed resurrection.
Do I need to hold the totem in my hand for it to work?
No, unlike the vanilla Totem of Undying, you don't need to hold it. You just need to have it charged and select a target, then activate it when your friend dies.
How do I select who gets resurrected?
Press Shift + right-click on the totem to open the player selection menu, then choose the player you want to resurrect. Make sure you do this before your friend dies.
What happens after my friend dies—do they respawn automatically?
No, after a player dies they must manually switch to spectator mode. Then you activate the totem to bring them back to life.
Can I configure how much charge the totems need?
Yes, the mod allows you to configure totem durability, charge costs, and other settings through the mod's configuration files.
Can I use multiple totems at once?
You can craft and carry multiple totems, but each one needs to be individually charged and can only resurrect one selected player at a time.
What if I run out of charging items?
You won't be able to charge your totem without the required charging items, so make sure you have enough before attempting a resurrection in Hardcore mode.
