@Thelady Thank you, I've been screwing around with it for a minute this helps a lot!!

@ NemeanEagle luckily i found an old reddit post about this

its effect = { add_trait_xp = {trait = zz_magister track=drops_of_power value=100}}

Or, with the "Touched By The Stars" trait:

effect = { add_trait_xp = {trait = starwalker track=drops_of_power value=100}}

You can replace "drops_of_power" under the zz_magister trait with any of the following:

- secrets_of_the_higher_mysteries
- blood_magic
- air_magic
- water_magic
- shadow_magic
- dream_magic
- alchemy_magic
- fire_magic

I'm genuinely struggling to find a way to just console add more maegi drops resource, does anyone know how I would do that?

@t_sanders6 i feel the same way i hope they add a custom rule for it

Greetings everyone. I am not personally a fan of the dragons being immortal just because my character is a mage, I tried removing the trait via console command but it always comes back and I did not see anything in the rules. Does anyone have any suggestions by any chance?

@bkzinayo yes, you can craft valyrian steel weapons and armor

Can i make valyrian steel with this submod?

Something about this causes the New Clothes and Artifacts for the North to go without any?

Could you make a Mod just for the Crafting System. I only want to Craft nice Valyrian Steel Things for a rival Dragon House when I play with Legacy of Valyria.

Also, might I ask how many dragon-blooded you need to sacrifice to cast Draconic Consumption?

Update: I had to buy Tours and Tournaments DLC to allow studying other magic schools available for me. Though at the moment, Mysteries of Royne does not seem to work for me, at least. Like I can't see the plagues.

@JamesS1009 but he is set to immortal, twice even?

The option to study other magicks are blocked for me. https://i.gyazo.com/e3d5fff1f87765508ff60c89b7e461f8.jpg :(

I also can't learn anything when I am trying to study magic, it seems. Even when I select other intents, it just defaults to study Higher Mysteries.

where in the load order would this go? i think i got it in the wrong place

i cant click anything in the magic archives besides the scroll holders. cant click learn or anthing

Hey @Zarathustra, huge thank you for making this available as a standalone mod after whatever happened with LoV - only just now rediscovered it and it's by far my favourite submod. All the best!

Hey, my charachter with Valyrian Longlevity keeps dying from old age at 98, any fix for that?

@anarish yeah i've been getting that too. I think its his age being so high but no longer being set to immortal. if so, could that get fixed, love that guy! love the mod!

Great mod, thank you! The only problem (?) I have is with the Hidden Scholars camp, every time I try to play as the high valyrian mage it immediately kills him. Even when I start playing as a random character, he still dies. Is there any gameplay reason for it? Or is it an incompatibility issue with some other mods I have perhaps?

Are the Npcs gainng experience on the touched by stars trait on their own or is it just for the player. Insane mod tho

Hey there, I'm curious if there's a way to prevent NPCs from possessing scrolls. Random lords, as well as their courtiers always have the scrolls I need.

Yeah, my problem was a mid-save related problem, I realized if I didn't have the mod installed like ever I could "bypass" the '- Updates to AGOT dragon system. This requires a new save.' warning.

Guess it didn't happen lol. But anyways, I'll keep my current save without magic sadly.

This mod works pretty good in a new save with LOV and I must say mages are busted I gave 7 family members and a living dragon egg and became immortal best part the egg didn’t break or nothing so I just used more blood magic and brought it back to life and tossed it in the pits 10/10 mods does as advertised

Strangely all my saves post-adding this mod broke after a couple hours playing with the mod, no clue what happened for real, I'll test further to see what happens, could be the newest AGOT update tbh as I'm also using this with LoV.

@Zarahustra could it be some interactions with the court mage position that somehow would create this weird loop?
It really only happen with Higher mysteries

is there a tutorial?

Odd, because I don't create that position in my mod.

In fact, I only reference the position once...

@Zarahustra

I doubt it's a load order thing, I have put your mod at the bottom of the playset, so it shouldn't cause problem. Looking at the crash log, there is a reccuring error saying that your mod is trying trying to create a duplicate for the antiquarian position, which lead to a crash eventually.
The problem really began since the last AGOT ( and then LoV) update

[11:21:48][E][court_position.cpp:646]: Attempted to create a duplicate court position of position 'antiquarian_court_position'

I know of the drama bewteen you and LoV, and the end, you owe nothing to anyone, but it's kind of a shame that there is major incompatbilities between 2 mods that are very close.

do you have to be a magical character in order to craft items?

Is there anyway I can fill up all the bars in the Acolyte trait and learn all the spells through a debug command or something like that?

That will be a load order problem. Frankly, given that I have a rather poor relationship with the LOV devs, I don't care one way or another what is happening with their mod.

It appear the mod really need an update for the recent AGOT and LOV updates, because right now, you can't appoint anyone to the court mage position, and there is a super annoying bug with the travel when you try to do any activity, your character will be sent on the bottom corner of the map

@Nasansoturi

I have secrets at the bottom of my playset, and only use AGOT, AGOT +, the submod core, LOV, dragonpen for sukes and this mod.

This bug isn't really the problem rn, it's more the constant crash. every 5 minutes the game CTD, itb seems it dosen't like when there is an activity running, it's unplayble for the moment. I may try a new game, as LOV just updated, maybe it has fixed this issue idk

@Ankou

Blood sacrifice activities, kill one of your prisoners for drops of power ( it seems you get more if the target is noble, and you definitly get more if you have magic adepts participating in the activities)

Your court mages can also generate drops of power, and lastly, once you get the "touched by the stars" perks, you will get a passive +1 drop of power income

What are ways you can actually gain drops of power without using console commands? That's the only thing I'm unclear on now

@Zagreb
For me atleast I can choose other ones to learn aswell, so maybe a loadorder or submod conflict for u?. For example this mod is below Legacy of Valyria in my playset. or maybe there is some other requirement?

angelbread22 Wait until you get the Kinslayer trait because you sacrifice on of your kids by mistake in a ritual (I jailed him because of the stupid spying pop up I didin't pay much attention to)

When your spell misfire, it can have some nasty effects too, best case you just wasted your mana, worse, you can get a mutation ( bad traits) like hunchback, bleeder, or it can downgrade on your traits, I had a ruler that got from genius to quick like that :/ I think you can get killed too if you're really bad at magic ( level in higher mysteries I guess?)

Sorry for bothering again, there is still some things I don't fully understand,

When I go for the study magic activity, I cannot pick anything else than "Higher mysteries", if I try to select a specific school of magic, the activity is greyed out (cannot launch), is this a bug on my part?

It would be nice to be able to concentrate on a specific school of magic for your mage instead of the pure RNG.
Concerning the blood magic spells, some effects aren't very clear in the description, like the enhanced blood (cost 1) does it add some points to skills randomly?
With the specific skills enhancements, I use to cast it on my kids, but in the notifications, it say that I get the improved skill, not my kid.

Last thing, I don't konw if it's possible, but maybe adding a cap on many people can take part in the blood sacrifice activity could be good, because if you get like 20 peoples participating the game will crash because of all the notifications in the event window for each participant.

@zarathustra Oh sorry, didn't knew about that :/

Hello! I was wondering if there's something like a passive learning from your mage master for apprentices. Or passive teaching, I suppose. It also might be useful to have a "study all" button as sometimes it can be really tedious to teach each mystery or scroll individually. And there doesn't seem to be a downside to learning magic.

Hi, is there anywhere I can report bugs? I have a problem where my game crashes around the end of the "Your Magical Studies" activity.

Given the rather acrimonious seperation between myself and LOV, (I was their coding lead, and project manager) the mechanics I had begun to write for Asshai magic sadly won't ever see the light of day.

Sorry my bad for Asshai, so this place is from LoV alone?

It would have been super cool to be able to study magic there (as the place is pretty useless currently)

This mod has 0 to do with Asshai. It only is built against the AGOT base mod.

NPC's will only use appropriate magic. IN time I will let them use more in the combat system, and to fight dragons. But doing more than that is a real limit with the AI.

There are many features of CK3 that the AI simply cannot use.

Hi thanks for this amazing mod, little question i cannot find any answer for :

Is it possible to learn and do magic in Asshai? When i play as Elyria, there no POI there to study magic, is it only avaible if you have enough diplo range? or do you have to play as Asshai to be able to study there?

last question, when I do magic studies, I can only select higher mystery, and never a specific magic school is it intended?

thanks for making such a cool mod, but it seems that very little, if any npc ever has the acolyte trait or uses magic at all. It sort of makes using magic feel like cheating. Am I just doing the mod wrong or...

Really miss that system

Is this like the magic system that used to be in LOV?
