New Features & Deep Dive
In The Gnome Chronicles you can summon a whimsical Mage Gnome inspired by a TikTok meme. This small green creature, dressed in an emerald robe and pointed hat, becomes your loyal servant when you enslave him with Magic Dust. Craft Magic Dust at your workbench using Glowstone + Redstone + Emerald
. Once bound, the gnome follows commands, trades with you and can offer powerful magical items.
Summoning Mechanics
- Arcane Flute: Use 3 Magic Dust on the flute to summon the Mage Gnome.
- Bind Ritual: Right-click the gnome with Magic Dust to enslave him.
- Trade Menu: Interact to trade Magic Dust Reinforced for special items.
Magic Dust & Reinforced Variant
Magic Dust is your currency with gnomes. To create Magic Dust Reinforced, combine 1 Magic Dust + 1 Netherite Ingot at a Smithing Table, yielding 5 reinforced dust.
Disciples & Minions
- Give 5 Magic Dust Reinforced to the gnome → receive the Summon Staff.
- Staff summons Gnome Disciples with the following base stats:
Type | Health | Damage | Attack Speed | Movement Speed |
---|---|---|---|---|
Disciple | 12 | 1 | 2 | 0.25 |
Mage Gnome | 35 | 9 | 1.2 | 0.2 |
