Scars of Arcana
Is a Minecraft modpack with the goal to bring magic into the world, while maintaining Minecraft's vibe and core principals intact.
Magic is capable of being expressed in a variety of ways across this recovering land, such as through totemic rites which alter the world around them, or soulbinding pacts which infuse the player with powerful abilities at a pricy cost.
Alongside this, many changes to the vanilla game experience have been made aswell, such as:
- Improved Storage with the introduction of bundles, backpacks and sacks!
- Expanded Cooking through limited food stack sizes and a wide array of new food items
- An overhauled enchantment system, with reworks to how XP functions and allowing you to fairly pick out your gear's enchantments
- And many other tweaks to vanilla features, such as overhauled beacons and elytras!
To guide you through all these new changes and tweaks, a fully custom set of advancements have been implemented, alongside most items containing in-game descriptions on how they function or what they can be used for!
