This page documents feature(s) that are no longer part of the mod.
These features only existed in outdated versions of Advent of Ascension.

The following article lists all of the removed features in the mod. These were features that existed at one point but were removed later.

Removed entities

Fragment Temple Mobs

The following mobs were present only in Fragment Temples. When Fragment Temples were removed, these mobs were removed with them.

Mega Guardian

Centurion

Fade

Poseido

Sceptron


Torano

Skill Masters

Main article: Skill Master

Some skills with Skill Masters in the mod have been scrapped since their conception. As a result, their corresponding Skill Masters were also scrapped.

Hermetism Master

Vulcanism Master

Soul Agent

Removed blocks

Campfire

The Campfire was a utility block that was added in 2.0. Campfires were tied into the Thermal Bar mechanic and were usable as a heat source. In 2.4 temperature mechanics were entirely removed, and Campfires were repurposed into healing blocks that would passively heal nearby players for 2 (♥×1) every three seconds.

They were removed in 3.0.

Celevus Planks and Shroom Planks

Celevus Planks and Shroom Planks are types of wood planks that existed in the mod at one point before being removed.

Shroom Planks were added in version 2.0 of the mod, while Celevus Planks were added in 2.4. Celevus Planks were crafted from Celeve Stems while Shroom Planks were crafted out of the Mushroom blocks in Mysterium. There were five different colors of shroom planks, one for each mushroom color in Mysterium.

Celevus Planks and Shroom Planks otherwise shared all the same properties as the other wood planks in the mod.

They were removed in an unknown version due to realism and consistency issues with making planks from stems and mushrooms.

Tyrosaur Altar

The Tyrosaur Altar was a boss altar block that was used to spawn the boss Tyrosaur. The player could spawn the boss Tyrosaur by using a Bone Horn on it.

It was originally added as a part of the 2.5 Snapshot, and then fully added in Tslat 1.1. It generated as a part of the Tyrosaur Stomping Ground structure.

The Tyrosaur Altar was removed in 3.2, and the way the player spawns Tyrosaur was tweaked.

Removed items

Portal blueprints and portals

Prior to version 2.0, there was a different way to get to dimensions instead of the Ancient Teleporter. Portals to the dimensions would instead spawn naturally in the world. These portals could then be recreated elsewhere by using special blueprints, which were then dropped off of the rare mobs in the dimensions.

  • The Haven portal spawned high in the sky above Extreme Hills biomes in the Overworld.
  • The Abyss portal spawned in the Nether.
  • The Precasia portal spawned underground in Jungle biomes in the Overworld.
  • The Mysterium portal spawned in Taiga biomes in the Overworld.
  • The Iromine portal spawned in the Deeplands.
  • The Deeplands portal spawned underground in the Overworld.
  • The Gardencia portal spawned in Precasia.
  • The L'Borean portal spawned in Gardencia.
  • The Barathos portal spawned in Runandor.
  • The Dustopia portal spawned in Greckon.
  • The Vox Ponds portal spawned in Gardencia.

Lunalus also had a blueprint, and there were two blueprints for the Greckon/Runandor portal.

Cannon dust

Darkstone Dust

In version 1.0, cannons required different kinds of dust as ammunition in order to be fired. One such example is "Darkstone Dust" (see image right). These dusts were removed and replaced with Cannonballs and Grenades.

Upgradable swords

In version 1.0, there existed three swords that were the result of upgrading a sword with an Upgrade Kit. These include the Ancient-Crystal Sword, Netherskull Sword, and Precasian-Blood Sword. These swords had the same statistics as their base swords did, so the change was purely cosmetic.

Weapon Base Sword Upgrade Kit
Ancient-Crystal Sword Ancient-Crystal Sword Crystallite Sword Crystallite Sword Ancient Upgrade Kit Ancient Upgrade Kit
Netherskull Sword Netherskull Sword Skeletal Sword Skeletal Sword Nether Upgrade Kit Nether Upgrade Kit
Precasian-Blood Sword Precasian-Blood Sword Bloodstone Sword Bloodstone Sword Precasian Upgrade Kit Precasian Upgrade Kit

They were removed in an unknown version prior to 1.1.6H, but their textures remained in the mod's files until 3.0.

Beginner swords

Several "beginner" swords and greatblades were added in the 2.5 Snapshot. The new developer has since confirmed they are not coming back mainly due to balancing issues.

For documentation purposes, the weapons and their stats are listed here.

Weapon Damage Secondary effect
Diamondhead Sword Diamondhead Sword 17 (♥×8.5) 2% chance to fully heal player on hit

Demonic weapons

The Demon Bow and Demonic Destroyer were added in 1.1, presumably as a teaser for the "Angels and Demons" update. They were removed in version 2.0. The Angels and Demons update was eventually scrapped, and Scimiguy does not wish to comment on whether or not these items will make a return.

Pre-3.0 Tablets

Main article: Tablets

Before 3.0, the tablets in the mod had a very different function. They were essentially "infinite potions", causing effects (often potion buffs) for the cost of Soul Power. They were crafted with Moondust, which was renamed to Moonstone in 3.0.

Most tablets were status effect tablets that gave potion effects when used. However, a select few were classified as instant effect tablets that gave instantaneous or very short effects. These had a slightly different shape from the status effect tablets.

These tablets were removed in 3.0. In 3.2, new Tablets that were placed in the world and drained Soul Power to provide an area-of-effect function. The names for Tablet of Agility, Tablet of Gravity, Tablet of Resistance, Tablet of Strength, and Tablet of Energy were reused for some of the tablets in 3.2.

Blood accumulator

Weapon-specific lottery totems

Prior to 3.2, several weapons were considered "lottery weapons". These weapons at the time were each linked to specific totems, and were the sole weapons to be repaired with Magic Repair Dust (as opposed to Rosite Ingots, the then-universal repairing agent). Lottomen outside of the Overworld would sell two of these depending on which dimension they were in. They costed 10 tokens for 1 totem, but 75 tokens could also be traded for 10 totems to reward saving to buy in bulk.

Totems were mob-like entities that were spawned when using the totem item. When hit, they would drop a random prize. A winning sound would play if the totem's weapon was the prize, and a losing sound would play for any other outcome. All totems had the same odds.

The prizes for the totems were as follows.

Icon Name Frequency
Seeds Seeds 76.4%
Nether Tokens Dimension's tokens 11.5%
Lotto Banner Lotto Banner 7.6%
Flaming Fury Totem's weapon 4.5%

The Formation Staff was removed in 3.0, and the Formation Staff Totem was removed with it.

In 3.2, the remaining totems were removed and replaced with a singular Lotto Totem shared between all Lottomen. The concept of "lottery weapons" was removed as a whole. The lottery weapons were redistributed along with all of the other weapons, and Magic Repair Dust became the universal repairing agent.

Fragment Banner

Fragment Banner

The Fragment Banner was a banner that dropped from all Fragment Temple mobs except the Mega Guardian. It depicted Krasaun's Dawn and a Strange Realmstone. Although all of these were removed in 3.0, the Fragment Banner and its variants remained in the mod until 3.2 due to an oversight.

Animal Blasters

Sound Cannons

Eye Bulb Seeds

Eye Bulb Seeds

Eye Bulb Seeds were introduced in 1.0 and were used to grow Eye Bulbs. In 3.2 these were removed in favor of Eye Bulbs growing directly in the ground like carrots and potatoes.

Mystic Shroom Seeds

Mystic Shroom Seeds

Mystic Shroom Seeds were introduced in 1.0 and were used to grow Mystic Shrooms. In 3.2 these were removed in favor of Mystic Shrooms growing directly in the ground like carrots and potatoes.

Removed structures

Fragment Temple

Skills and resource systems

Ancient Power

The Ancient Power resource bar (top: empty, bottom: full)

Ancient Power was the precursor to Energy. For the most part it was functionally identical to Energy, but it was also used as ammunition for Staves before Runes were added. Ancient Power was renamed to Energy, and restylized, around version 1.1 of the mod.

In version Tslat 1.1.3 and below, the Ancient Power icons can still be found on the Ancient Banner. However, in 3.0 the banner was re-textured and no longer has the icons.

Calefaction skill

Vulcanism skill

Thermal Bar

Vitality

Removed enchantments

Windfury

Windfury was an enchantment that could be applied to scythes. Windfury had a maximum level of III. Holding a scythe with Windfury I/II/III would give the player Speed I/II/III, respectively.

Windfury was removed in 3.0.

The following were the requirements for enchanting a scythe with Windfury based on the old infusion system, which also no longer exists.

Enchantment Infusion Level Requirement Enhancer Required (x4) Power Stone Required
Windfury Level I: 1
Level II: 31
Level III: 71
Speed Enhancer Radiant Power Stone

Other removed features

Freezing to death

Freezing to death was a game mechanic accompanied with the Thermal Bar. Whenever the temperature meter dropped to zero, a screen effect that resembled ice would be placed on the player's screen and the message "You need to warm up!" would be displayed in the chat. The player would also slowly lose health while this was occurring. The only way to stop it is to engage in activities that would increase the Thermal Bar, including consuming Tea, standing near a campfire, or by wearing a full set of Thermal Armor.

The Thermal Bar, and thus this mechanic, was removed shortly after its implementation due to its unpopularity.

Dimension Gen

Mysterium was more mountainous, with gigantic ravines going down (much like Overworld ravines). The older gen also had caves. The dimension was more natural than the current chunky generation. Was changed in 2.3.

  • Random Mystite Lamps could also be found generating around the dimension in 1.0 but were removed in the next update.

The Abyss was originally more flat but it had mountains that would hit block limit. Was changed in 1.1.

The Haven's gen was changed 3 times.

  • In 1.0 grass was lime green and the dirt was brown. Islands were also smaller and closer to the void.
  • In 1.1 to 2.3 the color of the grass was changed to cyan blue. Islands also got bigger.
  • In 2.4 the color of the dirt was changed to purple.

Precasia was flatter and generated Cycade Trees in 1.0.

Runandor was also more natural, with random spotches of land sticking straight up in places. Was changed in 2.3.

Unique skill master guis

Skill Masters used to have unique, colored guis individual to the skill master. Starting in 2.4, the guis were all replaced with a single gui that all Skill Masters share.

keepAllInventory and keepNoInventory

In 2.2, the gamerules keepAllInventory and keepNoInventory were implemented. They were supposed to be used with a new Augury-based death system due to the then-developer having issues getting it to work with keepInventory. As a result, these gamerules were created to override keepInventory's function. keepAllInventory was to function as keepInventory normally did (keep all items on death) and keepNoInventory would stop the death system from functioning.

However, the death system was unimplemented and although these gamerules remained, the only on-death change added was the Intervention enchantment.

In Tslat 1.1, these gamerules were removed, and keepInventory became functional again.

Damage limitation

In 2.3.10, a damage limitation was added in order to reduce the impact of overpowered weapons added by third-party mods that were popular at the time. It was listed as limiting all damage to AoA mobs using non-AoA weapons, and could be disabled with a configuration option. However, the damage limitation that was implemented was inconsistent with this. It limited all damage, including that of AoA weapons, and that of non-AoA weapons used on non-AoA mobs.

It was removed in an unknown Tslat version due to its inaccuracy and unpopularity.

Bosses dropping Hunter experience

Bosses used to drop large amounts of Hunter experience when killed by players at or above Hunter level 30. Players who were below level 30 did not get any experience.

This was removed in 3.0 due to being unnecessary, confusing, and easy to abuse.

AoA Notice Board

Main article: AoA Notice Board

Elytra nerf

Starting in 3.0, when the player used the elytra in any dimension (not just dimensions added by the mod), the elytra would degrade significantly faster than normal. The Unbreaking enchantment could slow this faster degrade.

This was removed in 3.2, presumably due to being confusing and generally unpopular.
