Unlocking Magic Spells in Hytale and wielding powerful magic against hordes of dark creatures is not as simple as it seems. Players need to go through a lengthy and tiresome process in order to hurl fireballs at their enemies.
However, this step-by-step guide on how to unlock Mana and Magic Spells in Hytale will make things easier for those looking to become archmages and dominate the lands of Hytale. Let's talk about the Arcanist's Workbench and how players can use it to unleash powerful spells on monsters.
How To Unlock Spells in Hytale
The first step to unlock Spells in Hytale is to find the Forgotten Temple and unlock Memories, which are a sort of collectible that also unlocks an important part of Magic in Hytale: Portals. Once players have completed this 'quest,' they need to craft an Arcanist's Bench, and for that, they'll need a particular material: Thorium.
This green-looking ore can be found in the Desert Biome or in Underground Lava Caves, both dangerous places that only players will full Iron Sets should explore.
Players need 30 Linen Cloth, 30 Thorium Ingots, and 20 Essence of the Void ( which can be obtained by slaying enemies during the night), to craft the Arcanist's Bench using the Workbench.
Now comes the fun part: Crafting Staffs & Totems. These are the Magic Weapons players can craft to cast spells in Hytale:

Debuffs And Slows Enemies |

On the other hand, to get enough Mana to cast spells in Hytale, players will need to have Mana Potions. These are unlocked with the Alchemist's Workbench.
Both magic weapons and mana potions are extremely expensive to craft, but the power of the spells is a decent investment. More so if players decide to adventure in groups and divide roles: Ranged Attacker, Melee Attacker, and Caster/Healer.
It is worth noting that there are special locations where players can find Magic Weapons and Potions and 'steal them.' Dungeons can contain Lich Lairs, which are extremely dangerous since the undead mages will fight tooth and nail for their treasure.
Players can be lucky and also find friendly lizard wizards, who build their lairs in dungeons and will 'share' their potions and spell-items with players. These magic laboratories are easy to identify, and they're often filled with chests, loot, and also secret hidden rooms that contain powerful potions and weapons.
Finally, players can also pick up some decent Magic Items from Skeleton Mages and other powerful monsters that wield magic. Just be mindful about those dangerous spells they use, since they cause burning, poison, and ice damage, which can be problematic for a rookie explorer.
