    In support of AM2's addition, since it adds some new PvP mechanics, as well as some useful utility tools like late-game flight and mining spells.

    While currently unstable, very diverse mod.

    Not really interested. There's already many mods in there, and this just adds another one that adds world spawn stuff and assorted more stuff to lag players and have issues with.

    AM2 its pretty fun and i like the infinite possibility of spell making also has many boss fights to offer which i personally love also solar flare :3

    Agree with Kazeodori in the part that it would require a Farmworld and Nether reset :p

    Farmworld and nether resets are already coming soon, this wouldn't change much.

    I think AM2 also has a config option to generate its worldgen on pregenerated areas.

    The mod works well in packs 1.7 packs that have it. And there isn't just pvp applications, it adds utility spells as well.

    Why add further complexity and resource usage? If we're adding it for the PvP mechanics to a server that says "PvP is not the focus of the pack", then I believe it is misguided. What does it add that is not currently available from another Mod?

    The ability to create magic spells that can assist you and defend you and the ability to get more powerfull as you level up and be able to create stronger spells

    It's actually pretty stable now, and Mithion's alive again.

    the mod wont just add pvp aspects as while you can make spells to fight people you can also make them to aid you in normal stuff heck i would just want it for the smelt spell to turn all those cobble stone blocks back into stone with out having to break the that and its wonderful blocks that make a base just look good

    @chugga_fan I've actually been talking to the current dev, I would not have posted the poll if I did not feel it would be updated regularly.

    Ah, ok, thank you, i still feel that ars magica is litterally just "Oh hey i want ALL pvp and nothing more"

    its not just pvp though i can think of tons of ways to protect myself against people who just want to kill people
    plus the whole theme of it is just nice its not that i dont like thaumcraft or botania
    but its currently being over used were as ars magica hasn't been touched in a while and is only in pure magic packs

    thing is i don't trust you
    you can not say that everyone will only use ars magica some might play with it but they won't just forget other mods because one mod has been added
    i for one will be using it alongside other mods to make really nice magical systems
