About this mod Author’s original text

Mana Bow

The Mana Bow mod adds the items Mana Bow, Horror Mana Bow and Mana Arrow to the game.

  • These bows cost Mana (and a very small amount of Stamina) to shoot, and deal Ethereal damage
  • Mana Arrows have a limited lifespan of 10 seconds once you draw the bow shot, after which they are destroyed.
  • The impact damage is reduced compared to Physical bows.

Recipes (spoilers)

These recipes do not have a scroll, you'd have to figure them out purely from trial and error if you wanted to.

Otherwise, the recipes are as follows:

  • The Mana Bow recipe is: Simple Bow, Mana Stone, Hackmanite and Spiritual Varnish in Survival Crafting.
  • The Horror Mana Bow recipe is: Mana Bow, Horror Bow, Hackmanite and Occult Remains in Survival Crafting.

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin

  1. The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
  2. Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
  3. Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
  4. Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.

Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file.

Dependencies

Install these first, or the mod will not work:
