A magical scepter is a spell casting weapon that has 9 additional monster variants. Each scepter has both a spell that can be cast on attack and a spell that is casted when the item is used.
Obtaining
Crafting
The magical scepter can be crafted using a scepter, lapis lazuli and a brown mushroom.
Generated Loot
The old taiga cabin structure contains a chest with loot that always has either a scepter or a magical scepter.
| Item | Stack size | Weight | Chance |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 5 / 7 | 71.4% | |
| 1 | 2 / 7 | 28.6% |
Mob Loot
When a refractor is killed there is a small chance (8.5%) of dropping a magical scepter; the drop rate increases by 1% per level of Looting: 9.5% with Looting I, 10.5% with Looting II and 11.5% with Looting III.
Usage
Casting
Each scepter variant has two ways to cast a spell; either attack with the item to cast the attack spell or use the item to cast the protect spell. In order to cast a spell the scepter requires the player to have enough experience to cast a spell. When a spell is being cast a cooldown will be imposed on the use of any magical scepter with a duration based on the spell.
Durability
Casting a spell costs 1 durability. When the item breaks it will be replaced by a scepter, which can be crafted back into a magical scepter. The scepter will keep the enchantments of the broken magical scepter, but it will lose the possible infusion.
Enchantments
Insight, Unbreaking, mending and curse of vanishing are compatible with the magical scepter.
