Occult Symbol
The Occult Symbol is a Curse-infected version of the Iron Symbol, and has a few useful properties.
To create an Occult Symbol, follow the transmutation recipe with Iron Symbol + Curse.
The Occult Symbol, while placed, is of interest to nearby Zombies, Skeletons, Creepers, and Spiders, who will path-find to it (though not in preference to attacking the player). It also acts as a passive source of Curse if near a Crucible that is gathering Power.
Using a Scroll of Transmutation on it causes black particles to appear around it, and unlocks the ability to Harvest using it.
Using a Quartz Bottle on the Symbol creates a random Power Bottle of some kind. The Power is 'extracted' from your player character, so you will suffer an ill effect when you do this. There is no way to choose what Power is taken (and therefore which consequence must be endured).
| Power Received | Consequence |
|---|---|
| Acid | 6 hearts of damage, weakness and mining fatigue. |
| Body | Hunger and reduced saturation. |
| Blaze | Freezes you for a moment. |
| Verdant | 1 heart of damage, and poison. |
| Light | Invisibility. |
| Mind | Level drain. Impossible without enough xp. |
