About this Mod
mod aimed at adding new structures and unique interactions with shrines and altars
currently the mod is not fully finished and is in active development, the creation of such a mod requires more understanding of specific situations of interaction with structures in the game by different players and any criticism and feedback are welcome
currently adds:
- 5 ancient altar structures
- 3 forest shrine structures
- 3 cosmic structures
- 4 dune structures
- 4 different altars (saturation altar, luck altar, trial altar, spirit workshop)
- 2 different forest shrines (forest shrine, cleansing fountain)
- 3 different sacred fruitful trees
- 2 altars of hot lands
also adds 3 fully developed mobs for ancient altars, and 2 followers of sacred forests, 2 vanguard mobs, 3 metalized mob
includes many different items of tools, armor and several swords but does not focus on the RPG component and most of the items have a non-combat idea
basically all types of structures are also good ways to accumulate experience, but in different parts of the world you can find radically different structures protected by different unique creatures
some of the simplest structures can be found around the world as cosmic shrines of the moon, sun and stars
only the moon and sun can have different blessings in the form of temporary effects, at the cost of the fact that after receiving the effect you will temporarily not be able to be either in the dark or in the light, depending on the altar where the blessing was acquired
also only at the moon shrine you can activate the invasion of the lunar legion after you find 3 relics from the creatures of the sacred forest, which will allow stronger enemies to appear during the night, and will also affect some plants and creatures
only at the sun shrine you can gain a blessing that will allow you to accumulate experience gained during the blessing and gain it again after re-worshiping the shrine
only at the altar of the stars you can set up a teleportation system between others altars of stars due to experience and the key responsible for the place where you are going to teleport
in the vastness of fields and plains you can find altars and workshops of the ancients, which are protected by the collected defenders, there you can find 4 different altars responsible for different aspects of the game
altar of luck as the simplest gives a chance to get unique ancient artifacts and tools of the ancients due to jewelry
altar of saturation gives rewards for making sacrifices prepared in advance by rituals, and also gives gifts in the form of temporary effects for the provided offerings of food
altar of trials provides an opportunity to show strength and skills in trials for a reward
forge of spirits allows you to turn tools and armor into effects and artifacts of the ancients, donated items turn into a wave of enemies after some use
forest sanctuaries are already in the dying forgotten corners of the forests, you can find rare powerful plants with their fruits, guarded by followers altars also provide more ways to gain experience for caring for the forest
ancient corruption and ruins of the ancients can still be useful and dangerous
