Spellranks - LOTM x Iron's Spells Addon

Spellranks expands Iron’s Spells ’n Spellbooks with a Lord of the Mysteries-inspired progression system in which players choose among nine True Paths and advance through Mage ranks by brewing Path-specific potions in an Alchemical Cauldron. Players begin as ordinary humans, unable to cast spells from their spellbooks unless those spells are pre-inscribed; after becoming Mages, they can cast spells matching their Path and Rank, from Common spells at Rank 4 up to Legendary spells at Rank 0. Ranking up requires collecting Path materials through exploration and combat, mastering every spell at the current rank, and meeting the requirements documented in FTB Quests; higher ranks call for challenges involving specific structures and enemies. Mage Cores power potion crafting and can also be used in the Scroll Forge to craft same-rank spells from other Paths; when a player dies fighting an entity, their corresponding Core drops and, by default, costs them one rank, a penalty that can be disabled in the configuration. The system also includes three main Domains, Praxis, Vitalis, and Maelstrom, with specialized Upgrade Orbs and Echo Curios, plus a Corruption Domain centered on the Eldritch Path that can transform Domain items and replace one of their Paths with Eldritch magic. Alongside the True Paths, Spellranks offers Boon Paths that progress independently through offerings of Path-related items rather than Mage Cores or potions: Summoner is always available, while Abyssal and Technomancy require Cataclysm: Spellbooks, Geo requires GTBC’s Geomancy Plus, and Sound requires Alshanex’s Familiars. The Summoner Path grants access to summoning spells from across the installed magic addons, including examples such as Sacrifice, Herald of Acropolis, Call Forth the Dead King, Conjure: Void Rune, Rhapsody, and Venomous Reborn; summons cast at the appropriate rank also avoid the Night Warden’s life-steal mechanics. Additional features include skill trees that improve Mage statistics and Path powers, new runes and Upgrade Orbs for cast-time reduction and mana regeneration, and the ability to upgrade spell-imbued items in the Arcane Anvil. The mod also adjusts access to several crafting stations and items with recipes for Cinder Essence, Crying Obsidian, the Cradle of Will, and Common Ink, with many of these modifications configurable. Spellranks integrates with T.O Magic ’n Extras and supports optional compatibility with other Iron’s Spells addons, including alternate Evocation recipes with Illage and Spell-age and the Boon Paths tied to specific addons.
