About this Mod
Gold and Copper armor are limited in their usability in current Vanilla Minecraft. This mod aims to give them extended use throughout your gameplay. A new stat is added to armor called Magic Resistance. This works against all types of magic damage, including Instant Harm Splash potions, poison, evokers, and now the new wands added by this mod.
The three wands are balanced around all stages of the game, as well as vanilla items. They all cost experience to cast, and have varying difficulties to craft with the endgame wand requiring items from all three dimensions.
Each wand tier increases in damage, as well as experience cost to use. This allows experience to continue to be relevant after maxing out your gear and enchants! The goal of this mod is to add more magic to Minecraft, without making Vanilla items feel underpowered.
