Sanowret crystals are magical crystals imbued with knowledge, based on the workings of an achaedi crystal. Sanowret crystals both teach the Arcana skill (regardless of guild and skill) and come with extensive notes about one of nine topics of magic theory.
To use it, one merely gazes upon the crystal while fully concentrated and absorbs the knowledge therein. Arcana is learned as the notes on magic theory progress, over the course of approximately half a minute. The amount of Arcana experience granted scales upward with your skill.
This is a permanent item, without needing to be recharged. Non-magic users can use them. It consumes concentration to use. The initial lecture the crystal is prepared with is random, although more may be unlocked with potency crystals.
They are currently only available as consolation prizes from the Bacon Man's Birthday Bash's token auction as a special sneak-preview. They are scheduled for general release some time after Hollow Eve 2016.
Usage
- STUDY CRYSTAL
- Looking at the sanowret crystal, you believe it to contain some hidden knowledge that you can access if you GAZE into the crystal, or EXHALE on it to gain rudimentary knowledge of arcana.
- You also think that you can turn, raise, rub, and clean the crystal.
- The crystal looks fragile. You think you could LOWER it to put it on the ground instead of dropping it, which might damage it.
- GAZE CRYSTAL
- View a lecture on a magical subject. Arcana experience is earned with each new pulse of information.
- EXHALE CRYSTAL
- Gain a single pulse of Arcana experience.
- LOWER CRYSTAL
- Used to put the crystal on the ground without damaging it.
- PUSH CRYSTAL
- Changes which lecture is viewed when GAZEing at the crystal. Only available for crystals that have been upgraded with a potency crystal.
Notes
- GAZE seems to take roughly 30 seconds to discharge the lecture. Each pulse of lecture information gives a pulse of exp. It seems to consume 51% of concentration regardless. Learning is dependent upon current arcana ranks.
- EXHALE appears to teach roughly half as well, but it's instant and does not have a wall of text. Concentration hit seems to be the same.
- Both commands have no noticeable cool down and can be used as soon as concentration hits 100% again.
- No other skills gain exp regardless of the subject of the lecture.
Care and handling
- Crystals should not be DROPped or they will be damaged.
- They can be LOWERed to the ground instead to avoid damage.
- Damaged crystals can be repaired by using an infuser stone on them.
- They do not require any other special handling and are weather-proof.
