Astral Sorcery Troubles DW 1.12.2

[acgr96]

I have been trying to start astral sorcery but cannot craft anything using a crafting table under a crystal, thus cannot progress. I know the wand and luminous table can be purchased at spawn, but sadly they cannot be used without this initial progression. I know this has been addressed prior but it seems like it has not been addressed since the most recent DW20 wipe.

Can a public crafting table with a linked crystal be added to spawn or somewhere in the world (I think the REV server has this)? Alternatively can a mod force my progression forward enough to use the luminous crafting table? Or perhaps can a collector crystal and linking tool be added for purchase at spawn as well (though I'm not sure if I would need progression to use those as well)?

Yeah, sadly Astral Sorcery has had issues for awhile. 
Good suggestion, this server had just wiped and we did have a building by spawn that was able to start players off in the progression of astral on the previous map. The Direwolf staff team will begin building another structure to do the same purpose. To help mitigate the Astral Sorcery issue and get help in progression in Astral.

Much appreciated, to you and all the staff!

Looks like Astral is back up and running since the update.

So I've heard! So glad to hear it. Very nice update this time around

Also hearing reports that Monk Mod is also fixed and able to legit-ly achieve level 20!
