About
Statue of Boons is an entirely new custom item and object that provides unique daily boons (buffs). Interacting with it initially randomly selects one of six possible boons. Subsequent daily interactions will select one of five possible boons, with the previous selected boon being temporarily disabled to prevent immediate repeats.
The item may be purchased from Balor's cart for 20,000t. It's imported from somewhere so it's a bit pricey...
Author's Note: Unique Item
The Statue of Boons is meant to be a unique item where you only ever have one. However, I was unable to find a way to fully enforce that restriction within the shops. Still, I was able to make it so the item may only be purchased once per year. That said, buying additional copies of the item for more boons will not work. They will all be considered the "same" (though you're free to try and I marked the sale price as 20,000t so you will get your money back if you do).
Boons
Boon of the Wind: Increases your movement speed for the day.
Boon of the Land: Grants additional forage in Mistria (outside the farm) for the day.
Boon of the Sea: Grants additional fish in Mistria (outside the farm) for the day.
Boon of the Dragons: Spawns a dragon fairy somewhere in Mistria.
Boon of the Stars: Increases your friendship gained with villagers for the day.
Boon of the Sun: Grants you infinite stamina for the day.
Dragon Fairy
The dragon fairy is a custom bug that is spawned when you receive the Boon of the Dragons. Possible spawn areas include the Western Ruins, Narrows, Hayden's Farm, Beach, and Eastern Road. When entering an area with Boon of the Dragons active, you will be notified if the dragon fairy is present. Once caught, Boon of the Dragons will not spawn another dragon fairy that day. If you leave the area before catching it you may re-enter the area to have it spawn again until caught. Maps marking the possible spawn locations in each area are provided in the mod image gallery.
Additionally, the dragon fairy is said to spawn "in the presence of dragons", and may be found in the Deep Woods without the Boon of the Dragons in the following conditions. Please note that it is considered legendary and therefore extremely rare for this "natural" spawn to occur even in these conditions.
- The season is spring or summer.
- The weather is calm or special.
- The time is between 00:00 (midnight) and 02:00 (end of day).
The dragon fairy is a universally liked gift and also sells for 1,000t (and 10 renown). There is also custom dialogue (once weekly) when gifting it to Caldarus.
Activation Costs
The Statue of Boons may be configured to require an activation cost. Both mana and essence are possible cost options, with the ability to enable or disable both separately or together. More information on configuring the mod is provided in the section below.
Mod Customization
The mod is customizable and allows you to configure the cost options mentioned above. By default, the mod:
- Sets the mana cost to 1 (which is equivalent to a quarter orb).
- Sets the essence cost to 5.
Author's Note: Configuration File
The configuration file will NOT exist until the game (and mod) have been started at least once. Therefore, if you wish to configure the mod, start the game until the title screen loads, then EXIT the game, and lastly edit the configuration file before restarting the game.
In order to customize the mod, you must modify the properties in its configuration file. This file is located in the mod_data folder inside the Fields of Mistria folder where the game is located. Below is a directory tree view of where the configuration file exists beginning with the folder that the game is in:
Fields of Mistria
├─ FieldsOfMistria.exe
├─ mod_data
│ ├─ StatueOfBoons
│ │ ├─ StatueOfBoons.json
The full "path" to the file will vary depending on where the game is installed. For example, with the game installed via Steam on the C drive the full path for the configuration file would be:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Fields of Mistria\mod_data\AnimalFriends\AnimalFriends.json
The configuration file by default will look like the following:
{
"essence_cost" 5,
"mana_cost" 1
}
You can change each value as follows:
- The mana_cost value adjusts how much mana is required to activate the statue. It must be a whole number between 1 and 16 (inclusive).
- The essence_cost value adjusts how much essence is required to activate the statue. It must be a whole number between 1 and 1000 (inclusive).
