Magic

Magic uses the resource of mana, which regenerates over time. Armor changes the generation rate (See Magic Armor Below) and if you stand still for 10 seconds, your mana regeneration will double. Additionally, there are Mana Potions that can be bought in town, or found in dungeon shops and boss/miniboss drops.

A player's maximum mana can increase through leveling up, interacting with altars in the dungeon, or randomly while using the Body and Mind Legendary sword. (See Legendaries) Alternatively, it can be decreased through curses.

There are also Scroll Variants of every spell, which costs no mana but are a one-time use per scroll. Scroll versions of a spell typically have an intrinsic boost to their spell damage, and ignore the spell damage modifier of any armor you're wearing. There is a rare spell that can only be found in scroll form on lower floors, this spell is Sunburst.

Staves

Spells can be cast with the command /cast or /c followed by the spell you would like to cast (e.g. /cast frostshards). This method cannot be used in combat. However, it is also possible to bind spells to a staff with the command /autocast followed by the spell you would like to cast (e.g. /autocast frostshards). This method can be used in combat. When using a staff to cast a spell, the mana cost of the spell can be reduced depending on which staff you use. (e.g. Using the spell frostshards on an ice staff saves 40% of the mana cost).
