Thurible, Lens and Lattice

Three tools for a thaumaturge's own work, all researched in the Arcana Varia tab.

The Thurible

A censer on a chain that swings clouds of essentia.

Step	How it works
Filling	It holds up to 64 essentia of one aspect, which you can see through its glass. Right-click a jar with it, or hold a filled phial in your other hand and use the Thurible. Sneak and right-click a jar to pour it back.
Swinging	Hold use to swing it. Each swing leaves a cloud of the aspect in front of you, and a hit leaves one on the target. The tooltip says what the loaded aspect does.
Compounds	Every primal and many compounds have an effect of their own (below). A compound without one carries its parents' effects, stronger the more steps it took to make. Aspects made in the Alembic Lattice make the strongest incense.

Aspect	Cloud
Aer	Speed for you and your allies
Motus	Speed II for you and your allies
Volatus	Slow Falling and Jump Boost for you and your allies
Aqua	puts out fire on allies and gives Water Breathing
Terra	Resistance for you and your allies
Praemunio	Resistance II for you and your allies
Ordo	Absorption (extra hearts) for you and your allies
Victus	heals you and your allies, with Regeneration
Sensus	Night Vision
Ignis	sets enemies on fire
Potentia	strikes enemies with raw damage
Perditio	Weakness and a little damage to enemies
Gelum	Slowness II and Mining Fatigue on enemies
Alienis	lifts enemies off their feet (Levitation)
Lux	makes enemies glow through walls
Tenebrae	blinds enemies
Mortuus	withers enemies
Vitium	Poison and Nausea on enemies

Blueprints

Three blueprints turn up in lab chests and tower vaults. Hold the Thurible in your other hand and use one to fit it.

Picture	Blueprint	What it fits
	Blueprint: Thurible Chain	a long chain: the cloud lands further away
	Blueprint: Thurible Bowl	a wide bowl: bigger clouds
	Blueprint: Thurible Orbit Ring	an orbit ring: sneak and use to set the Thurible circling you

The Architect's Lens

A building tool. It builds with Ordo vis from a wand you carry (a twentieth of a vis per block) and the blocks in your inventory. Sneak and scroll to change its mode; the tooltip names the mode. Motes show where every block will go before it is placed.

Mode	What it does
Mirror (east-west)	each block you place is copied, mirrored across the anchor east to west
Mirror (north-south)	the same, north to south
Mirror (both ways)	each block is copied into all four quarters round the anchor
Radial (4)	each block is copied round the anchor in four quarter turns
Radial (8)	each block is copied round the anchor eight ways, turned and mirrored
Line	a straight line between the two corners
Wall	an upright wall along the line between the corners, as tall as they are apart
Fill	every space in the box between the corners
Replace	every block in the box like the first corner's becomes the block in your other hand
Copy	writes the box into a blank Blueprint Scroll in your other hand
Paste	builds the written Blueprint Scroll in your other hand, with its corner where you click

Mode	How to use it
Mirror and radial	right-click a block to set the anchor. Every block you then place with the Lens in either hand is copied round it.
Line, wall, fill, replace and copy	right-click two blocks for the corners, then right-click the air to build with the block in your other hand.
Undo	sneak and right-click the air. Sneak and right-click a block to clear the corners.

Lab studies and tower vaults sometimes hold written scrolls: a Spiral Stair, a Deepslate Arch and an Alchemist's Bench.

The Alembic Lattice

Glass pipes that carry essentia one mote at a time, so it can be counted, timed and mixed. Each mote glows in its aspect's colour and moves one block every half second.

Picture	Block	What it does
	Lattice Intake	set against a jar, draws one mote a second. Use it with an empty hand to change the pace, down to one mote per redstone pulse; otherwise a redstone signal stops it
	Alembic Pipe	carries motes straight on where it can, and takes turns at forks
	Lattice Outlet	set against a jar, fills it, and waits while the jar is full
	Lattice Junction	joins two motes that reach it from different sides within 8 ticks of each other into their compound, which leaves through the face it was placed facing
	Lattice Synchronizer	holds one mote. A row of them facing the same way lets go together once every one holds a mote. Use one with an empty hand to add a delay; redstone holds the whole row
	Splitter Prism	takes motes in at the back. A compound splits into its two parents, out of the left and right faces; a primal passes straight through

A mote with nowhere to go, or one left waiting at a junction too long, spills as flux. Path length is delay: every pipe adds ten ticks, so timing two paths to meet is the puzzle.
