Wands and Roses

Wands and Roses adds a magical wand progression system with craftable rose-based materials, upgradeable wand variants, homing thistle projectiles, custom particles, ammo reloads, and shared combat abilities.

Current wand set:

• Wands and Roses: base rapid-fire rose wand.

• Toxic Trouble: poisonous splash wand.

• Scorching Scepter: fire wand with stronger charged shots.

• Wand of Freezing: freezing wand with slow and splash control.

• Staff of Jinxing: cursed wand that weakens high-health enemies through Jinx.

Crafting and progression:

• Craft Rose Petals from Rose Bushes.

• Refine petals through risky crafting steps into stronger magical petals.

• Craft the base Wands and Roses wand with sticks and Imbued Rose Petals.

• Upgrade the base wand through smithing into Toxic Trouble, Scorching Scepter, Wand of Freezing, and Staff of Jinxing.

• Repair wands with Lapis Lazuli through an anvil with a capped repair cost.

Wand enchantments:

• Thistle Damage increases wand projectile damage.

• Thistle Damage I adds +4 base damage.

• Thistle Damage II adds +8 base damage.

• Thistle Damage III adds +16 base damage.

• Homing Upgrade increases homing and red-crosshair targeting reach by 18 blocks.

• Focus Recharge improves Focus regeneration speed.

• Focus Recharge I reduces Focus recharge time by 1 second.

• Focus Recharge II reduces Focus recharge time by 2 seconds.

• Focus Recharge III reduces Focus recharge time by 3 seconds.

• These enchantments can appear through normal enchanting systems such as enchantment tables, enchanted books, fishing, and villager trades.

• Wands can hold the wand enchantments together, letting players build stronger specialized versions.

Telekinesis:

• While holding any wand, middle mouse can select, grab, move, release, throw, or anchor entities and blocks.

• Selected targets glow so players can clearly see what is being controlled.

• Scroll wheel moves grabbed targets closer or farther.

• Left click throws grabbed targets forward.

• Releasing blocks can turn them into falling blocks, while anchoring can place blocks back into the world.

• Living entities can be temporarily anchored in place.

• Self Telekinesis can be activated with Ctrl + middle mouse while holding a wand.

• During Self Telekinesis, the player glows and can drift through the air by looking in a direction and using the scroll wheel to control movement strength.

• Releasing Self Telekinesis gives a short Slow Falling effect for safer landing.

• First middle mouse click is “Selection Mode”, Second middle mouse click is “Locked mode or Grab mode”, third middle click is the release.

• To anchor a block or entity press “CTRL” and “Middle Mouse” while on locked mode.

• Telekinesis uses Focus, a separate wand resource shown near the ammo display.

Focus and durability:

• Focus regenerates over time while holding a wand.

• Telekinesis selection, grabbing, and Self Telekinesis activation consume Focus.

• Holding telekinesis targets or Self Telekinesis slowly drains Focus.

• If Focus runs low, raw XP points can be converted into Focus.

• The exchange rate is 1 raw XP point for 10 Focus.

• When XP is converted, the Focus display updates so players can see the refill.

• When a wand reaches its final safe durability point, it can consume Focus instead of losing more durability.

• Wands still do not fully break, but low durability, low Focus, and no XP can make them temporarily unusable.

Shared wand abilities:

• Time Snare: fires a large slowing projectile.

• Arcane: grants temporary defensive buffs and limited burst attacks.

• Goatify: temporarily turns enemies into goats.

• Activate these three abilities by pressing the 123 keys above the WASD keys while holding any type of wand.

Server owner controls:

• Server owners can disable “block” telekinesis with /wandsandroses telekinesis blocks false.

• Server owners can disable “Self” Telekinesis with /wandsandroses telekinesis self false.

• These commands require permission level 2.

• Both settings are enabled by default.

• Entity telekinesis remains unchanged by these two commands.

Other features:

• Homing thistle projectiles.

• Ammo and Focus display near the hotbar.

• Custom wand particles and impact visuals.

• Multiplayer-friendly projectile behavior.

• Custom mob compatibility where possible.

• Owned, allied, and supported plant-like mobs are ignored by thistle targeting.

• Targeting and Focus systems include small optimizations for smoother modpack play.
