Requirements

Before you can catch familiars, you need:

Incense — Crafted at the Witchcraft Circle (Simple, Regular, or Greater tiers)
Access to spirit spawn areas — Different familiars spawn in different biomes
Available team slot — Team size is limited by Hearth level

Step-by-Step

Step 1: Craft Incense at the Witchcraft Circle
Simple Incense uses basic materials. Regular and Greater Incense require rarer materials. Higher-tier Incense may attract rarer familiars (community-reported).
Step 2: Find spirit spawn locations
Spirit spawns appear in various biomes. Different familiars spawn in different areas — check the Familiars page for spawn locations.
Step 3: Use Incense near a spirit spawn
Activate Incense near a spirit spawn to begin the catching process. Follow on-screen prompts.
Step 4: Bond with your new familiar
After catching, the familiar joins your team. Bond by using them in combat and exploration.
Step 5: Expand your team size
Level up your Hearth to unlock additional team slots. Higher Hearth levels allow more familiars in your active team.

Common Mistakes

⚠️ Using Incense in an area with no spirit spawns.
Fix: Incense only works near spirit spawn points. Explore different biomes to find spawns.
⚠️ Trying to catch familiars with a full team.
Fix: Your team size is limited by Hearth level. If your team is full, you can't catch more until you level up your Hearth or release a familiar.
⚠️ Using the wrong Incense tier for rare familiars.
Fix: Higher-tier Incense (Regular, Greater) may be needed for rarer familiars. Simple Incense works for common ones (community-reported).
