Alchemy Pot

**Alchemy** is used to brew all of your spells. You can make an _Alchemy Pot_ by placing a soul campfire underneath a water-filled cauldron, then tossing an Amethyst Shard inside. Your finished _Alchemy Pot_ should look like this: ![Alchemy Pot](https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/1aaa9650b806c73deee4189f90b72d1b270350a1.png) When brewing, you must wait five seconds after throwing in all of the correct ingredients. Most spells require a _Spell Tome_, which is found in Dungeons, Abandoned Mineshafts, and Stronghold Libraries. The _Spell Tome_ acts as a blank spell, which you infuse spells into!

Attacks

When he is red, he is vulnerable, meaning this is the time to damage him. Be warned, when he hits half health he gets much faster! ### Attacks: _Necromancer_ has 3 attacks. One of them is the _Amethyst Spiral_, where he will unleash a bunch of _Amethyst Bolt_ spells in a spiral. This attack is indicated by purple particles around him before he casts it. Another is the _Electra Attack_. In this attack, he will summon _Electra_ spell fields att your feet. It is crucial to stay on the move while he casts this. It is signaled by blue particles around him before he casts it. Finally, he can cast the _Ascendio_ spell in a spoiral around him, similare to the _Amethyst Spiral_.
