Frequently Asked Questions - dr3ams/Roguelike-Adventures-and-Dungeons-2 GitHub Wiki
RAD2 FAQ: Please Read these questions before asking in the discord.
Q: How do I Salvage Items?
A: Shift-Right-Click a Smithing Table. There is also a quest that explains this.
Q: How do I disenchant?
A: Use the tome of scrapping, the book of disenchanting, or the tome of hungering knowledge.
Q: Okay, and how do I use the book of disenchanting?
A: Right-click a player-placed grave with a grave's soul. A grave's soul is a floating purple orb that appears around these graves after a while. They can also spawn behind blacksmith structures (not the village ones).
Q: I can't build a nether portal! How do I get into the nether?
A: Find dimensional plasma. This is a purple fluid found near the bottom of the world surrounded by netherrack.
Q: How do I get out of the nether?
A: Find a reclaimer. It looks like a black beacon. Place gold blocks in the missing spots next to it and stand in the beacon to travel home.
Q: What does the blue/grey feather icons mean?
A: It is the dodge meter. Pressing Left Alt and WSA or D causes the player to leap in that direction, gaining brief invulnerability during the dodge. Also a great mobility tool. Grey feathers are unusable and indicate armor weight. Stronger armor grants more gray feathers. The Lightweight enchantment reduces the gray feathers.
Q: How do I level light?
A: light you gain from certain mobs dread, dragons, the wither, and bandits from atum, Twilight Forest bosses, and the shade from greek fantasy and a few more.
Q: How do I level shadow?
A: Killing villager guards, pixies, the goblin trader and crafting straw effigies levels up shadow.
Q: How do I level magic?
A: Mine magic crystals and use tattered tomes. Then after level 5 you can start using ars nouveau spells.
Q: Why can't I use boomerang/phantasmal blade / any other melee that throws projectiles despite having the requirements?
A: Pmmo considers any projectile to be Magic or Archery even if it came from a melee weapon. For the spartan weapons you can put them in the offhand and they will work. Otherwise you will have to level up your magic.
Q: How do I level dragonslayer?
A: Kill the Ender Dragon or one of the Ice and Fire Dragons. Each awards 200 xp, increased when a dragon skull is in your offhand or you are using a dragon bone weapon.(Komodo dragon gives about 0.01 dragonslayer as a joke)
Q: How to get Dragon Eggs?
A: I assume you mean the Ice and Fire ones here, you have to kill and loot a tier 4/5 female dragon. They have no spots and more curvy horns unlike their male counterparts.
Q: What is the max level for skills?
A: 200.
Q: What are Trinkets?
A: Unlike Curios these use a special menu. They grant passive buffs to the player, and more slots can be unlocked with xp. The menu is opened with R by default but it conflicts with some other binds so you need to change it.
Q: Why can't I damage the Hydra in the Twilight Forest? / Why am I burning even though I killed the Minoshroom?
A: You need to eat the Meef Stroganoff to gain access to the hydra swamps.
There is also a known bug where multipart mobs (naga & hydra) sometimes can't be damaged by melee attacks. Shooting arrows will still hurt them however.
Q: I keep auto-jumping and can't turn Auto-jump off!
A: Press H to toggle between auto-jump, auto-step, and none.
Q: There is an inventory on my screen! How do I get rid of it?
A: Press I to hide it.
Q: How do I get rid of the cube next to my crosshair?
A: You enabled rotation lock. Press K to turn it back off. Rotation lock makes all the blocks you place face in the same direction.
Q: I accidentally removed the trashcan slot from my inventory! How do I get it back?
A: Press T while in the inventory to get it back.
Q: How do I pick up spawners?
A: You can't. Sorry. They also disappear after 50 spawns, so they are temporary anyways.
Q: Why can't I apply X enchantment to an item?
A: Press U in JEI to see what it can be applied to. The UE menu also shows what enchantments it is incompatible with. If it doesn't have any, its probably bugged or disabled so just grindstone it down into xp.
Q: Why can't I veinmine blocks?
A: Only ores and logs can be veinmined in this pack.
Q: Why can't I find any Ice and Fire dragons?
A: Dragons only spawn 1000 blocks away from the world center. Even then they are very rare.
Q: How do I "wear" the dragon skull (or other non-armor item with "wear")?
A: Put it in your offhand.
Q: How do I loot a dead dragon?
A: Right-click with empty hand.
Q: Is there any storage bigger than chests?
A: Backpacks can be used as chests since they are placeable.
Q: What do spirit orbs do?
A: They are used to upgrade the paraglider's stamina, and also open Gateways.
Q: What is the best armor/weapon in the game?
A: Most say it is dreadsteel, but it is better to use the armor that fits your needs the most. Armor is capped at 60, so try to get armor that grants special abilities rather than just focusing on stats alone. Weapons mainly rely on enchantments to deal their damage, so once again use a weapon with a powerful special ability like the dreadsteel scythe rather than just focusing on its attack damage.
Q: Why is my health lower than before after I died?
A: This can happen for 5 different reasons:
- You had an item with death's odium.
- You are wearing the broken heart/phylactery charm
- You are wearing the Ring of the Seven Curses.
- You have the berserker enchant on your chestplate while having 200+ exp levels.
- You have the reckless enchant on your chestplate.
Answer for 1: You will have to eat a cookie enchanted with Death's odium. Must be a stack of at least 2 cookies to work. Answer for 2: It slowly regenerates every minecraft morning. Sleep to get it back faster. Answer for 3: You will have to head back to your death spot and retrieve the soul crystal that dropped. Answer for 4: Simply store the exp until you are back down below level 200. Answer for 5: Remove the enchant from your chestplate/inventory.
Q: How do I repair XY item?
A:
Side Note: Runic anvil will only repair relics if you have xp points (the green part of xp bar)
Q: How can I mine multiple blocks in an area (like the Mattock's 3x3 mining in RAD 1)?
A: The Etherium Pickaxe, Axe & Shovel are endgame tools that can mine multiple blocks similar to the Mattock, you can also make an ars spell with the Break glyph and AOE glyph to mine a bigger area, the Astral Breaker can also mine a 3x3 area.
Q:Why do spawners look like this?
A:Spawners have a limit of spawning 50 mobs
Q: How to repair Dungeons Gear Items?
A: By default every armor can be repaired using either string, iron ingots, or bones, or leather, or oak logs
-bone: bones
-cloth/robe: string
-heavy_plate: iron ingot
-hide: bones
-light_plate: iron ingot
-medium_plate: iron ingot
-pelt: leather
-wither_bone: bone (not wither bones)
-wood (beehive): oak log HAS TO BE OAK LOGS, no other wood type
Weapons: Wooden Planks
Artifacts: Bottle of enchanting
Bows and Crossbows cannot be repaired through materials. You have to use mending or another bow of the same type.
Q: How do I get rid of the annoying bat following me? / How to get rid of constant bat sounds?
A: Take off your Spelunker Armor / Cave Crawler Armor. You will then have to kill the bat with indirect damage like lava. It won't respawn if you don't have the armor worn.
Q: Why can't I get enchanted books from librarians?
A: They no longer sell them in this pack to encourage getting them from exploring. Seriously how is breaking and placing a lectern over and over fun smh
Q: How do I get mending?
A: Go dungeon exploring or go fishing. If you find gear with mending use the disenchantment methods above in Question 2 to obtain the enchantment as a book.
Also try looking for other mending alternatives like ender mending, life mending, or warrior's grace.
