How it works

The Babel Countercurse lifts a Babel Curse from whoever wakes it. Right-click the rune while the curse grips you, and the whole rune is spent. The countercurse unravels your Babel Curse.

The countercurse must match or exceed the curse's Tier. The Babel Curse (Tier 5) outmatches this countercurse (Tier 3). With no curse to lift, or a curse too strong for it, the rune stays as it is. No Babel Curse grips you — the countercurse finds nothing to undo.

See Hexes and curses.

Configuration

These are the defaults in plugins/Runic/runes/babelcountercurse.yml. Every rune file also carries the shared settings described in Rune files.

Babel Countercurse has no settings of its own beyond the shared ones.
