One of the most unique features of Fields of Mistria is the inclusion of magic. It’s not something you unlock at the beginning of the game, and figuring out how to get your first spell can be a bit confusing. Find out how to unlock your magic and get more spells in Fields of Mistria right here.
How to unlock magic in Fields of Mistria
To get your first spell in Fields of Mistria and unlock your magical abilities, you need to go to the mine. If you haven’t unlocked the mine yet, go to my Attorney and Fields of Mistria Guide to find out how. Opening the mines takes some effort, but I’m sure you’ll finish the quest in no time!
Once you’ve opened the mine, make your way down to the 10th floor by smashing rocks open with your pickaxe until you find each set of ladders. Every five floors, you’ll gain access to the elevator, so don’t worry about missing anything.
Once you reach the 10th floor, go back to your home. Or, like me, you can go ahead and pass out on the 19th floor.
After you fall asleep (or pass out), Caldarus will appear to talk to you. He can sense magic returning to the earth and now has the power to grant you the one human-safe spell he remembers.
Enjoy your first spell: Full Restore.
How to get more spells in Fields of Mistria
Now that you have access to your Mana and your first spell, it’s time to tackle the mine again. Head down to the 20th floor and you’ll find a strange room with a tablet and a door that prevents you from entering the mine.
The game gets a little stuck here. Go and talk to Eiland (who is very enthusiastic about the whole thing), and you’ll end up with him to talk to Juniper.
Juniper is able to translate the text on the tablet that tells you what moves to make to get past the door.
You will need the following items:
- lantern moth
- Reuben
- Stone Loch
- Mushroom of Upper Mines
All of these can be found in the first 20 floors of the mine (also known as “The Upper Mines”.
Take these items to the room on the 20th floor, and place them as offerings in the four clawed hands. Once the door opens, Caldarus will give you your second spell – Summon Rain – as a reward for entering the Tidal Caves (this area covers floor 21 to floor 40 of the mine).
A door like this appears every 20 floors, and opening the door will give you a new spell each time.
