If you are looking to control your Eitr and become a powerful mage, you’ve come to the right place. In this guide, we are going to go over everything there is to know about Eitr, including how to unlock and replenish it, as well as Eitr-powered weapons. First, let’s look at how to unlock Eitr.

Unlocking Eitr

Overall,unlocking Eitr is pretty simple. All you need to do iseat food that contains Eitr. This can be done by cooking a dish, as well as just eating a Magecap mushroom.

A Magecap will give you 25 Eitr.

These are forgeable items that can be found within the Mistlands.Once you eat a Magecap mushroom, you will be able to Eitr; the amount that you currently have will be marked with a purple bar.

Eitr Levels

Eitr works just like health and stamina bonuses.For example, when you eat cooked boar meat, you will gain a health bonus that will eventually go away over time.

This applies to Eitr as well.Rather than having a base of Eitr that can be buffed, you start with none. So, upon eating a Magecap, you will have 25 Eitr.After 900 seconds (15 minutes), the effects of the mushroom will fade, and you will be back to no Eitr.
