About this Mod

About
Magic for Dummies was an old mod I made that I really liked the concept of.
Magic mods are cool, but they can be very complicated, so I made an easy to understand alternative.
Magic for Dummies 2 adds eight new magic wands. They can all be crafted inside the magic table with a stick and a magic tome.
These magic tomes can be obtained by exploring the new magician's dungeons. You'll always find a magic table there.

Crafting
Magic wands are crafted using a stick and a magic tome. Place a stick in the first slot of the magic table and a tome in the second.
Magic tables are found in magician's dungeons, but they can als be crafted in the same way as an enchanting table,
but using emeralds instead of diamonds and without a book.
Enchantments
- Darting | Decreases the cooldown of wands (5t*level) (max 3)
- Mastery | Increase effectiveness of wands (effects differ per wand) (max 3)
