All the Mods 10 Magic Guide
Ars Nouveau
The most versatile magic mod in ATM10. You create custom spells by combining glyphs, and the mod also adds portals, mob farming, flight, and a full storage system.
Getting Started
Best Ars Nouveau Spells and Glyphs
Extract Glyph (Silk Touch)
Tier 2, costs 5 levels + 1 emerald to unlock. Spell: Projectile > Break > Extract. Silk touches any block including spawners. No tool durability cost. One of the best glyphs in the mod.Leap Glyph (Flight)
Requires Wilden Wings + Air Essence. Self-cast. Boosts you in the direction you are looking. High mana cost (reduceable with Sorcerer armor). Break your fall by casting in any direction before hitting the ground. A-tier early flight.Dispel Glyph
Used to release mobs from Containment Jars. Essential for the Drigmy mob farming setup.Ars Nouveau Source Generation
Source is the mana system for Ars Nouveau. You need source jars filled to at least 90% for warp portals and other advanced features.
Agronomic Source Link
Produces source from nearby crop growth. Place near farms for passive generation.Snad Farm (Fastest)
Craft Snad (2 sand). Plant sugarcane or cactus on it with a redstone clock nearby. Massively accelerated growth fills source jars quickly via Agronomic Source Link.Warp Portals
Portals work cross-dimensionally. Build them flat for mob farms (mobs fall through and teleport to a kill zone). Stabilized Warp Scroll (Enchanting Apparatus + ender pearls + blaze powder) gives infinite uses.
Drigmy Mob Farming
Drigmies passively generate mob drops without killing actual mobs. One of the most powerful passive income systems in the pack.
Blacklisted: Wither (no nether stars), Iron Golem (no iron).
Tablet of Scrying
Right-click with any item to highlight all instances of that item or block in the world with glowing particles. Lasts 30 seconds. Works for ores, flowers, structures, and anything else. Excellent for finding specific ores or rare blocks.
Tablet of Flight
Ritual brazier + Tablet of Flight. Provides creative flight in a radius around the brazier, powered by source. 5 minutes uses ~22% of one source jar. S-tier flight option for building and base work.
Storage Lectern
Ars Nouveau has its own storage system that rivals AE2 for mid-game:
Iron's Spells 'n Spellbooks
Pre-made spells that you slot into a spell book. Focused on combat and utility magic with a straightforward crafting system.
Angel Wings (Flight Spell)
The Dead King (Boss)
The main boss from Iron's Spells. Found in specific dungeon structures. Drops the Blood Staff and other magical loot. Bring good armor and ranged options.
Occultism
Summon demons and spirits to automate tasks. Occultism also provides a power-free storage system.
Storage System
Works like AE2 but needs no power. Multiple tiers: basic storage, dimensional storage, stabilized dimensional storage. Add Inert Storage Accessors for remote access from anywhere. Great mid-game option before you set up AE2.
