About Blood Arsenal Mod
Blood Arsenal is an addon for Way of Time’s Blood Magic mod that fills the early game gap with tons of new content. It adds weapons, armor, rituals, sigils, tools, machines, and decorative blocks that make Blood Magic progression feel less grindy and more fun.
Whether you want better ways to collect LP, need new ritual options, or just want cooler gear, Blood Arsenal has something for you. It’s designed to work alongside Blood Magic without being required to enjoy it.
What’s Included
Better Daggers
Get glass shards by breaking glass blocks while holding flint. Use these to craft Glass Sacrificial Daggers and Glass Daggers of Sacrifice, which give way more LP per use than vanilla daggers. The downside? You’ll bleed, which costs health but also gets converted back to LP if you’re near an altar. Fair trade.
Early Game Tools
Blood Infused Wooden Tools are lifesavers. Throw a log into a Tier II Blood Altar with 5000 LP to get a Blood Infused Log. Craft these into tools that repair themselves using LP. Perfect if you’re tired of running back to get new stone tools every five minutes.
New Armor
Three new armor sets bring something different:
- Vampire Armor – Comes with a cape and gives Strength III when worn
- Glass Armor – Not durable, but makes enemies bleed when they hit you
- Life Imbued Armor – Stores Life Essence and randomly heals you. Refill it in a Life Infuser
Rituals and Sigils
New rituals include Ritual of Withering, Midas Touch (turns iron into gold sometimes), Enchantress’s Spell (enchant items with multiple books), and Fisherman’s Hymn (automated fishing).
Sigils are where it gets fun:
- Sigil of Swimming – Breathe underwater, mine faster, swim faster
- Ender Sigil – Access your Ender Chest and teleport by shift-clicking where you’re looking
- Lightning Sigil – Point and click to summon lightning. Shift-click to change how much lightning falls
- Sigil of Divinity – Pretty much god mode
- Sigil of Augmented Holding – Holds 9 sigils instead of 5
Machines
Automate your Blood Magic setup with new blocks:
- Life Essence Materializer – Converts LP from an orb into Life Essence you can pump out
- Life Infuser – Uses Life Essence to repair tools automatically
- Soul Compacter – Compacts entire altars and rituals into a single block (costs a decent chunk of LP though)
- Altare Aenigmatica – Automates altar crafting. Put in items and it handles everything
Decorative Blocks
Blood Infused Glass, Blood Infused Glowstone, Blood Infused Iron Blocks, Blood Stained Glass and Panes, and Slate storage blocks. All fit nicely with a Blood Magic themed base.
Food and Other Items
Blood Oranges give you Regeneration. There’s Blood Money if you want to pay someone in LP. Bound tools like Bound Bows and Bound Sickles. A Transparent Orb that shows LP levels dynamically. Plus glass spike traps that bleed entities and feed LP to nearby altars.
Baubles Integration
Optional Baubles support adds amulets and rings:
- Amulet of Self Sacrifice – Passively collects LP when you take damage
- Soul Pendants – Works like Tartaric Gems but worn as an amulet
- Ring of Vampirism – Feed on bleeding entities nearby to heal yourself
Baubles isn’t required, but the items are great if you have it.
