Thaumcraft: build and use the infusion altar - how it works

This gaming tip shows you how you can build and use an infusion altar in Thaumcraft.

Build infusion altar in Thaumcraft

To build an infusion altar, you need four "Arcane Stone Bricks", four "Arcane Stone Blocks", several "Arcane Pedestals" and a "Runic Matrix".

Arrange the four Arcane Stone Bricks so that they would be the corners in a 3x3 field.
Next, place an Arcane Stone Block on each Arcane Stone Brick.
Then place an Arcane Pedestal in the bottom center (between the Arcane Stone Bricks).
Finally, place a block of your choice, such as a block of grass, on the Arcane Pedestal and place the Runic Matrix on top of it. Then you have to remove the grass block again.
To activate the infusion altar, right-click on it with a (fully charged) wand of your choice.

To use the Infusion Altar, you need to place additional Arcane Pedestals around the Infusion Altar as shown in the picture.

Now you have to place an object under the Runic Matrix, such as a "Thaumium Pickaxe".
On the Arcane Pedestals around the infusion altar you can drop, for example, an oak block, two "fire shards" and a diamond.
Then right click on the Runic Matrix again with a fully charged wand of your choice.
You can find all crafting recipes and recipes for the infusion altar in the Thaumonomicon.
