The Large Essentia Generator (LEG) is a [[multiblock]] power generator added by the [[Good Generator]] mod crafted in late [[HV]]/early [[EV]] tier which is available upon obtaining titanium. Itthat consumes certain types of [[Thaumcraft]] essentia (provided via Essentia Tubes or an AE2 network with anto Essentiagenerate Provider)power. There also exist several upgrades which allow the LEG to consume external fluids to boost the efficiency of some types of essentia or allow some previously unusable kinds of essentia to be consumed.

#Layer 1: Consists of Magic Casings and Arcane Stone Bricks. Fluid Input Hatches, Essentia Input Hatches, [[Maintenance]] Hatches, and Dynamo Hatches can replace any of the magic casings in the middle plus shape on this layer.
#Layer 2: Consists of a ring of Magic Casings and Essentia Diffusion Cells, and Arcane Stone Bricks on the outer pillars. Essentia Diffusion Cells come in four different [[tier]]s whichand cannotcan be mixed in the multiblock structure. See the Essentia Diffusion Cells section below.
#Layer 3: Consists of the controller block on the top center, and Amber Bricks on the outer pillars.
 
== Essentia Diffusion Cells ==
The minimum tier of the Essentia Diffusion Cells dictates the maximum Dynamo Hatch tier the LEG can accept. Higher tiers also improve efficiency via the StablePoint mechanic. TheyThe cannottotal bestable value of a LEG is the sum of the StablePoints contributed by each Diffusion mixedCell.

== Upgrades ==
The optional LEG upgrades allow the LEG to consume external fluid to boost the EU value of some essentias or allow them to be consumed at all. These essentias come in 8 categories: Radiation, Sprite, Mechanics, Tainted, Victus, Unstable, Thermal, and Air. The upgrades' names are formatted as "Essentia Generator: [Category]" (i.e., <span style="color:red">Essentia Generator: Thermal</span>). Installation of the upgrade is done by right-clicking the controller with the upgrade, and multiple upgrades can be applied to a LEG. Warning: the installed upgrade is not displayed anywhere, the message in chat is only displayed during installation, and upgrades cannot be retrieved or removed.
