Thaumcraft 4 wands will always be more preferred to me over the gauntlets any day. The amount of customization and personality allowed in a wand was a lot and i liked the feeling it gave me of twisting the world in a delicate and precise manner to avoid the laws of the world. The gauntlet just makes me feel like shitty knockoff thanos, when I make a character with wands I can reflect their personality into the cores and caps, it can have significance, maybe they have a wand that doesnt fully worth with their foci because it got passed down to them! thats neat! thats interesting! meanwhile the gauntlets feel cheap and mass produced.

There's no connection i have to my gauntlet like I had with my wands, and that takes out a lot of the fun for me. I like having a lot of customization in things to slightly differentiate characters, maybe one uses a reed core because theyre more pacifistic, or this ones more evil coded so it uses a bone core, while there is technically ways to min-max the wand, it never feels required. The wands felt more like an extension of my will and self then the gauntlets ever had

Thaumcraft moved on from wands in Tc6, so I wanted to do some service to the various 'casting gauntlets' added by it and some of the addons to it.

Casting Gauntlet "A more modern interpretation of Auromantic manipulation tools, the Caster's gauntlet is built off of studies into the nature of vis in its natural, primal state itself, and how best to harness it without exploiting and potentially destroying the natural sources of aura. thus endangering the balance of the local environment. Initial studies into this topic came from the properties of both the sojourner's wand cap, and the amber wand core. The design of the Gauntlet includes an energized amber lens for the drawing in of vis directly from the local environment, while the ergonomic and practical 'glove' design allows for more direct manipulation of vis as if it were an object one could wield. Some would say this is like reinventing the wheel, and they could very well be right. The iron used in its construction is prone to corrosion through extended use, and personally I would not trust a thin sheet of leather to protect me from all matter of spells that these devices can sling. This is a prototype to eventually be replaced." (Do I reaaaally need to say where its from? -.-)

Silver Plated Casting Gauntlet “Building off of the original design, changing out some fittings with more arcanely aligned metals such as gold and silver provides a slight boost in efficiency, and greatly reduces wear and tear from channeling.” (Not based off of anything actually, but I feel this would be a logical next step for base thaumcraft.)

Thaumium Casting Gauntlet “The charged thaumium that makes up this gauntlet’s build has twofold uses, it both allows for a greatly more efficient channeling tool, and a great bludgeon when vis is not so available. Unfortunately, the nature of thaumium means that its channeling ability degrades with wear and tear, though fortunately not nearly as fast as thaumium wands would.” (Based on Thaumic Revelation’s addition to the CG formula. A greatly appreciated addition tbh)

Elarium Casting Gauntlet “This extremely gaudy tool can directly channel psionic energies into more vis, and it greatly improves the users mechanical ability over the tidal forces of this world. Directly applying so much elarium to oneself however can have some damaging effects on the psyche. Just like with Elarium caps, there are much better uses for the substance than this…” (Not really based on anything, I just wanted to expand the repertoire a bit. This one is more worldbuilding than game design)

Alchemist’s Casting Gauntlet “New. Improved. With 30% more alchemy. This gauntlet is perfect for a burgeoning alchemist, with its highly durable materials, heat and chemical resistant lining, as well as inbuilt pipe management tools, it is a great deal! You can even pump certain essentia into it for a variety of boosts to its efficiency, power, or the like.” (Not really based on anything, I just wanted to expand the repertoire a bit.)

Voidseer’s Casting Gauntlet “It was only logical to take the next step from Thaumium, developing a gauntlet made from both voidmetal and shadowmetal would ensure its survivability long after other gauntlets would be worn out. Its Voidmetal build also allows it to draw in aura faster and more efficiently. It even allows for further tinkering, especially with forces of pure vis harvested from the warp itself, colloquially known as Impetus.” (Based on the Voidmetal gauntlet from Thaumic Augmentation.)

NovaCorp™️ Casting Gauntlet “The latest in aural manipulation and the field of aspectual science as a whole, the Casting Gauntlet (sponsored by NovaCorp™️) will revolutionize how you go about your daily lives! By pulling Aura directly out of the local region into its internal reservoir, it will pretty much always* remain charged! Manipulate arcana! Throw fireballs!

But in AEON they aren't the CC, so /shrug)

the eldritch warden from thaumcraft 4, mayhaps?

[drjammies]

This is me on my thaumcraft 4 Minecraft server since I've been researching forbidden magic. My warp is high enough that I occasionally burst into flames or emit around 100 bats from my skull.

sorry for the warp spasm

[ultimateplaylistmaker]

Wait you know what Thaumcraft is !?

*puts my thaumcraft 4 wand behind my back as warp whispers secrets into my ears*

nooooope definitely not

[a-shrieking-cloud-of-bats]

juicing room beginning to get out of hand

but soon I’ll have what I need to resume construction on house

and then I can make an actual juicing room with like dedicated storage space

once I make that wand that can recharge terra vis without input I can mine freely and pickaxes will be a thing of the past

also I can mine through waterfalls which will of course be an issue when digging around on the seabed

I always love watching people play Minecraft, but I always end up feeling sorry for all the Endermen that have to get killed to go to the End.

My poor lanky boys...

[agenderaroace-a-fucking-disgrace]

Honestly same, happened with purple as well, although I already liked purple quite a bit.

Random Wednesday thought: Started really liking green ever since being aro became my primary and most precious queer identity

I’m having a normal one gang, and by that I mean I’m reading the Thaumcraft 4 wiki while listening to songs by Aviators. Truly no other person has ever been normaller than me. Please ignore my phone layout that is also slightly by technicality Thaumcraft related and also ignore all of the jokes about dark magic and the fact that I have finally decided I’m officially going to actually set up a way to play thaum and dimension doors in the same world. I need enrichment in my encloser okay? Ghwhehrh!

Mods shown (1.7.10): Thaumcraft 4, Thaumic Bases, GeoStrata, Chromaticraft

wait! Spark will embroider enchantments (prot 5 usually) on the people he cares abouts clothing items. Everyone gets a personalized design for them! Nobody knows about the enchantments because the best part about secret helpful armor pieces are the fact that they are secret, and best way to keep it a secret is not telling anyone. This does however lead to it not getting worn by some for various reasons. the heavier and the multitude of the enchantments means for a bigger design, so there are some that feel bad about wearing it out in case it gets ruined (Jeriah) or counterintuitive (Mot). When Martha and her brother were younger a lot of their clothes contained stars and moons beaded and embroidered by her father, being older now she understands that that was one of the ways he showed he cared, but now she views wearing such things as childish.

Spark definitely plays favorites and this is just one of the ways in which he does, not everyone will get an enchantment embroidered. Those that will are: Alyssa, Jeriah, Mot, Martha, Sonja, Capsize, Dianite, and Andor!

my working Spark headcanon of the day, is that just like the season one pirates, he doesn’t wear armor. At least that’s what it looks like. His clothes have enchantments threaded as various designs (from floral to spirals), making it look inconspicuous that it’s enchanted in the first place. Being costly to make he only has a few different outfits to mix and match with. It probably counts as like light leather armor.

New Thaumcraft addon (1.7.10) dropped 👀

Looks very promising just glancing through it. Will definitely be integrating some of the ideas there into my headcanon.

I’d ask them to include the Thaumic Dyes cultists but the discord is all in Russian 😭

[enbykelpie]
