Altar Power and Core Blocks
The Altar is the heart of any witch's workshop. It provides the energy (ME - Magic Energy) required for the Distillery, Kettle, and Circle Magic.
Building the Altar
The Altar is a 2x3 multiblock structure made of six Altar blocks. Once placed, it must be covered with a red, white, or purple carpet to function. Its power capacity and recharge rate are determined by the variety of nature nearby (leaves, grass, crops, wood).
Power Boosters
| Item | Effect |
|---|---|
| Arthana | Increases the range of the Altar. |
| Candelabra | Multiplies the recharge rate. |
| Chalice | Increases the total energy capacity. |
| Pentacle | Increases the speed of energy transfer. |
| Wither Skeleton Skull | Massive boost to capacity and recharge. |
