Magic for Dummies 2
Magic for Dummies 2, a Forge mod for 1.18.2, adds eight magic wands and a magic table reached through new magician's dungeons.
What it does
Wands are crafted at a magic table from a stick and a magic tome. Magic tomes are found in the magician's dungeons, and the magic table is always placed in those dungeons, so the first tools come from exploring them. The table is built the way an enchanting table is, but it uses emeralds in place of diamonds and needs no book.
The mod presents magic as a simple system meant for players who find other magic mods complicated. The server and every player need the mod installed. Files exist for Forge only, for 1.18.2, with 2.5.1 as the latest file, published 2023-04-16 under the AFL-3.0 license, which is not open source.
The author notes localization as an open request: the interface is translated into English (United States), Spanish (Spain) and Dutch (Netherlands), with the feedback channel open for new languages. The mod is listed among 438 Magic mods with Forge files for 1.18.2.

What the author says
Magic for Dummies was an old mod I made that I really liked the concept of. Magic mods are cool, but they can be very complicated, so I made an easy to understand alternative.
