IMPORTANT NOTE: From UPDATE 1.6.0 Eldertide Armaments will use Vlad's Grimoire.
Vlad's Grimoire is a fantastic collection of VFX that expands fast. VladmirFFXI has created several unique effects specially for this mod.

Adds 22 new rings and amulets to the game, and 16 new potions.
There are 2 versions, tutorial chest version and immersive version.
- For immersive version, items will appear as a random loot in several containers and vendors throughout the game, hope your RNG is good.
- For cheat version, you can simply aquire those from the tutorial chest, use the Tutorial Chest Summoning mod if you already left the area.
There are many new spells and abilities along with new ability icons and VFX to match the theme they represent.

Some VFX effects demonstration are down below.




Immersive Version

For my fellow immersive gamers, there are currently approximately 40 locations (including chests and vendors) where you can find the other "lost" Mystic Eldertide Cache items, those locations are scattered throughout the game. You can obtain only one item, either a ring or an amulet, from these locations.

When starting a new game and opening the tutorial chest, you'll discover the Mystic Eldertide Cache which contains the 2 lore books: Tasha's Compendium of Alchemical Arts - contains recipes for potions crafting using Witch Queen's Cauldron spell
The Chronicles of Eldertide - lore book about Eldertide Armaments for immersive feel :D
All items are unique, so each item will drop only once during a playthrough.


May the blessings of the RNG gods be upon you.

Note: Since this is random loot I can't test it all, but in a couple of my tests I did manage to obtain a random item from the loot list.
