🎯 Tips & Tricks
Make sure to back up your save before installing, just in case the mod conflicts with your current progress.
If you're using the Steam version, check if the mod requires any specific game version—since it's from 2023, it might need an older patch.
Try the 10s cooldown variant first if you want a balanced experience; the no-cooldown Uber version can make combat trivial.

⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Community-approved (307 endorsements) and widely downloaded (18.9k).
- Gives you the forbidden spells early, so you can role-play a proper dark wizard from day one.
- Flexible cooldown options let you pick your power level—casual or god-tier.
👎 Cons
- Last updated in February 2023—might not work with the latest game patches.
- No install instructions or compatibility notes from the author.
- Only unlocks Dark Arts—no other gameplay changes, so if you wanted new spells or quests, this isn't it.
