Large Essentia Generator

The Large Essentia Generator (LEG) is a power generator for late game starting EV+. It can generate a vast amount of power and supply hundreds of amps of ZPM or higher. It consumes essentia (provided via essentia tubes or an AE network with an essentia provider) and can be boosted to create even more EU/essentia consumed.

Large Essentia Generator Overview

Setup

The setup of this multiblock is a bit tricky as it is in the early phases of development and is constructed as follows:

  1. Base Layer: This layer consists of Magic Casings and Arcane Stone Bricks. It is important to not that all hatches for this multiblock can only replace the four corner Magic Casings in layer 1. That means this multi can have at most 4 hatches: (Maintenance Hatch, Essentia Input Hatch, Dynamo/Laser Output Hatch and Input Hatch)
  2. Layer 2 consists of a ring of Magic Casings and essentia diffusion cells. They come in four different tiers, EV: novic, IV: Adept, LuV: Master, ZPM: Grand-Master which in turn dictate the tier of the dynamo hatch. They cannot be mixed. It is recommended to craft adept casings at least in order for the setup to be worth while.
  3. Layer 3: On the top center is the controller block: This is the Good Generators Large Essentia Generator, the vanilla Gregtech one does not currently work and will be removed in the future.
  4. The four pillars as shown with Arcane Stone Bricks and four Amber Bricks.
    LEG Layer 1: The only 4 hatch locations are the outward facing magic casings in this layer.

NOTE: Allowable hatches: Maintenance hatch and Auto Maintenance Hatch, any Input Hatch (eg. for liquids), any Dynamo or Laser hatch (matching the diffusion cells), and the Essentia Input hatch from Good Generators Mod. (the others won`t work")

Start the Reactor:

To start the LEG you must first attune the Essentia Input Hatch to the aspect to be consumed. This can be done by right clicking the Essentia Input Hatch with a phial filled with the essentia to be consumed.

Tipp: You can check if the attunement has worked by using an Essentia Resonator from Thaumcraft. Finally supply the essentia, either via essentia tubes or with an Essentia Provider from Thaumic Energistics.

Essentia Input:

Essentia Type EU/Essentia Requires Upgrade?
Terra 800 no
Aqua 5000 no
Ordo 1200 no
Lux 1200 no
Tempestas 61200 no


Power boosting:

The Energy output of the LEG can be greatly increased by attaching Upgrades to it. This consumes a variety of different liquids to multiply the EU output at the cost of the additional liquid.

The Endgame setup for the LEG consists of attaching the tained upgrade to the LEG. It multiplies the power output x10 as base when consuming liquid death and on top of that by a factor: (25000/Base Fuel value)^4.


The lowest fuel value for this upgrade is Vitium (taint) with 4700EU.. Total output of 1 Vitium aspect = 4700*10*(25000/4700)^4 = 37,624,129 EU.
