Removed features

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

Ancient Cavern
Main article: Removed features/Ancient Cavern

The Ancient Cavern was a structure dimension tied to the four deities. Unlike its name would suggest, it was less a cavern and more of a temple structure that floated in the void. The Ancient Cavern had a main room that spawned four different mobs, and separate outer chambers that housed each god's "champion", which was a special boss that dropped item themed around said god and required level 70 in a specific skill (in addition to level 70 in Augury before 3.2) in order to fight. The bosses also required a full Tribute bar for the respective god to challenge; this could be obtained by killing enough of the representative mob in the main room.

The Ancient Cavern was removed in 3.5. However, the developer has said that the concept will remain and will likely be reused in the future. If it is reused, the concept will be revamped and likely be merged with any other surviving structure dimension concept into a single dimension, Nowhere, at least partially for technical reasons.

Immortallis
Main article: Removed features/Immortallis

Immortallis was a dungeon dimension consisting of a series of rooms. Players would complete trials interspersed with fights against the Immortals, and be rewarded with Dungeon Tokens that could be used to trade for various rewards.

Immortallis was removed in 3.5. However, the developer has said that concept will remain and likely be reused in the future. If it is reused, the concept will be revamped and likely be merged with any other surviving structure dimension concept into a single dimension, Nowhere, at least partially for technical reasons.

Removed entities

 * Coniferon
 * Goldorth
 * Horon
 * Hydrolisk
 * Penumbra
 * Silverfoot

Removed NPCs
Some NPCs have been removed from the mod, including Skill Masters for removed/scrapped skills. The following is a list of these NPCs:
 * Hermetism Master
 * Soul Agent
 * Vulcanism Master
 * Portal Master

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 every three seconds.

They were removed in 3.0.

Unobtainable Carved Runes
The Carved Rune of Empowering and Carved Rune of Focus were types of carved runes that were previously meant to be used for infusion table blueprints when they spawned. Infusion blueprints were removed but the carved runes remained. They were finally removed in 3.4.

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.

Filtration System
These are special utility blocks that were previously used to make Magic Mending Solution. However Magic Mending Solution soon gained a crafting recipe in 3.2 making the Filtration Systems useless. They were finally removed in 3.4.

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.

Cycade Wood
These are types of wood added in 1.0 and can be found in Jungle Lotto Huts, Opteryx Nests and in Coniferons room in the Ancient Cavern. All of its variants were removed in 3.4 and got replaced with Stranglewood in Jungle Lotto Huts and Opteryx Nests. For Coniferon's room it got replaced with Jungle Wood, although Removed features/Ancient Cavern was eventually removed along with Removed features/Coniferon.

Blocks exclusive to biomes that no longer generate
Several biomes from several dimensions were removed in version 3.0, though the blocks that could only be found from these removed biomes stayed in the game until version 3.3. As there were many blocks that have been removed, this list is currently incomplete.

Custom monster spawners
Main article: Removed features/Custom monster spawners

The monster spawners inside structures used to have custom textures for each spawner. Although they were otherwise identical to vanilla spawners, the custom textures required that they were separate blocks, which caused technical and compatibility issues. As a result, they were removed in 3.4 and replaced with vanilla spawners.

Boss Statues
Bosses used to drop gray statues on death, which could be crafted into gold versions. There were also unobtainable fully-colored ornate statues.

Statues were removed in 3.4 and got replaced with trophies due to technical issues.

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


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.

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.

Swords

Greatblades

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.

Archerguns
Archerguns were a type of weapon that shoots arrows at a fast rate. They were removed in 3.4 and got replaced with Crossbows but the abilities of them remained.

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.

Instant effect tablets
Click "Expand" for a list of all instant effect tablets that were in the mod prior to 3.0.

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 as prizes. Lottery weapons also required Magic Repair Dust to repair (as opposed to Rosite Ingots, the then-universal repairing agent).

Totems were mob-like entities that were spawned when using a totem item, sold by Lottomen outside of the Overworld. 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.

Lottomen would sell two different kinds of totems depending on which dimension they were in. They costed 10 tokens for 1 totem, but 75 tokens could also be traded for 10 totems for a bulk discount.

The prizes for the totems were as follows.

{| class = "wikitable"

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


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.

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 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.

Holly Top Seeds
Holly Top Seeds were introduced in 2.3 and were used to grow Holly Top Petals for creating Holly Arrows. In 3.4 both were removed due to Holly Arrows also being removed.

Anima Stone
Anima Stones were introduced in 2.1 and were items that grant Anima experience when picked up. These were removed and Anima Stone entities took their place.

Heart Stone
Heart Stones were introduced in 2.0.4 and were items that grant Innervation experience and health when picked up. These were removed and Heart Stone entities took their place.

Starting Coin And Progress Coins
Starting Coins and Progress Coins where introduced in 2.4 as a way to progress in Immortallis. The Starting Coin is obtained by trading with the Dungeon Keeper whilst Progress Coins where obtained from The Immortals. They were removed in 3.4 and got merged into one new item the Progress Token.

Dimension Tokens
Back in 1.0 Several types of tokens were introduced that dropped from many mobs in each dimensions their use was only was in trading with lottomen they were removed in 3.5 for unknown reasons

Removed biomes
In Tslat 1.1, many biomes were added to various dimensions. They all had originally appeared in the 2.5 Snapshot.

They were removed in 3.0. A biome for Labricon was added in an unknown version and removed in an unknown version.

Pre-3.5 Lunalus structures
Lunalus generation was changed in 3.5, and all old structures were removed and replaced. Below is a list of these structures:
 * Lunar Garden
 * Lunar Prison
 * Lunar Village
 * Observer's Eye
 * Space Arena
 * Zarg Planetoid

Pre-3.5 Shyrelands structures
All above-ground Shyrelands structures were derived from cubic rooms in order to fit in with its generation at the time. These structures were removed after 3.5 changed this generation.
 * Craexxeus Tower
 * Divine Platform
 * Shyre Archer Structure
 * Shyre Bank


 * ArcWizard Dungeon
 * Soulscorne Dungeon
 * Shyrelands Lotto Structure
 * Whitewashing Mill

Tyrosaur Stomping Ground
{| class="plainlinks" style="width:100%" font-size: 120%;" |
 * width="15%" |

The Tyrosaur Stomping Ground was a structure that generated in Precasia. First appearing in the 2.5 Snapshot, it was officially added in Tslat 1.1 as a way of summoning Tyrosaur.

It was removed in 3.2 and the way to spawn Tyrosaur was tweaked.

Removed skills
The following skills were implemented at one point, but later removed.

Calefaction
Main article: Removed features/Calefaction

Calefaction was added in 2.1. It tied into the Vitality mechanic and granted the player a chance to deal critical hits if their Vitality was high enough (these stacked with vanilla critical hits).

Vitality was removed in 2.4 as it was not intuitive and was hard to balance around, and Calefaction was repurposed into Butchery to disconnect it from temperature.

Vulcanism
Main article: Removed features/Vulcanism

Vulcanism was added in 2.4. It was trained by using Vulcanes, and would allow the player to use various augments when leveled up.

Vulcanism was removed in 3.1, and augments no longer had any extra requirements to use.

Ancient Power


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.

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.

Events
Main article: Removed features/Events

Events were time periods when special mobs would spawn in the Overworld. They occurred on random days/nights, with one exception. They were removed in 3.5 due to concerns about bloat/filler content as well as technical issues involving event mobs filling up Overworld spawn pools, even when events were not active. The event mobs were mostly either removed or moved to other dimensions where it was determined they would fit better.

See the above page for more details about specific events.

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. The Abyss was originally more flat but it had mountains that would hit block limit. Was changed in 1.1.
 * Random Mystite Lamps could also be found generating around the dimension in 1.0 but were removed in the next update.

The Haven's gen was changed 3 times. Precasia was flatter and generated Cycade Trees in 1.0.
 * 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.

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, they were all replaced with a single GUI that all Skill Masters share.

keepAllInventory and keepNoInventory
In 2.2, the gamerules  and   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. As a result, these gamerules were created to override 's function. was to function as  normally did (keep all items on death) and   would stop the death system from functioning.

However, the death system was never implemented. Despite this, these gamerules remained, although the only on-death change added was the Intervention enchantment.

In Tslat 1.1, these gamerules were removed, and  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 described 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 3.0 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: Removed features/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.

Modding API
A modding API was added in 3.0 to allow other mods to interact with AoA in a more direct way. The API was removed in 3.3, as parts of the source code itself was made more accessible to other mod developers (see Third-Party Mod Integration/Making an Addon).
