Chemistry/Essences/Bastet

From A Tale in the Desert

Main Shard Bastet T5 Beta

This is the BASTET SHARD Essence page, Main is HERE

This is a table for producing Essences for Chemistry.

Each Essence takes 10 Spirits to make. Each spirit has a type (Rock-Fish) and a quality (Grey-Ra) (note grey is both a quality and a type any spirits of grey quality are also type grey, and vice versa). Each type of spirit has a temperature. If you add the temperatures of the ten spirits you get the temperature of the end result.

If you're just starting to do research chemistry, there's a quick Guide

Each macerated item has an ideal temperature value of spirits that will produce the highest quantity of Essences. You will also get a variable quantity of Essence depending on the worst quality of any spirits you use. With the correct temperature and Fire quality you get 6 drops of Essence. Unlike T3 being slightly off does not give consistent results. With fire there is often (but not always) two locations that produce 6 drops and some times changing the temperature by 1 will reduce the yield by 2 instead of 1. Grey Spirits produce a maximum of 3 drops.

For this table all spirits are Fire quality (or Grey quality). And have the following temperatures: Rock 0, Wood 1, Worm 2, Grain 3, Grass 4, Fruit 5, Vegetable 6, Mineral 7, Fish 8, Grey 9.

Essences each have 8 properties, often abbreviated to their first two letters:

  • Aromatic (Ar)
  • Astringent (As)
  • Bitter (Bi)
  • Salty (Sa)
  • Sour (So)
  • Spicy (Sp)
  • Sweet (Sw)
  • Toxic (To)

Each property has an integer value between -3 and 3. Except for 0, none of these values occur more than once in a given essence (with the exception of Camel Pheromones?) (Unknown if this is true for Bastet -- Akiiki)

Essences are sorted in the order they appear in the chest menu.

Akiiki is running litmus tests on essential compounds Here.

Footnotes

While the "correct" recipe for a temp of 81 is 9 Fish and 1 Grey, any combination with grey spirits in it will give a maximum output of 3 drops. 10 Fish of Fire will return 5 drops. Higher Quality Spirits (Air, Life, Ra) will return more drops.
