Altar (Witchery)

The Altar is a block and multiblock structure from the Witchery mod. This block is used to build the multiblock structure, the Altar. This structure is built in a 2x3, and will appear to have a cloth on it when built properly. The Altar is used to provide power for things such as rituals, Distilleries, Kettles, and other magical devices and actions.

Upgrades
The Altar can be upgraded by placing various blocks and items on the top face of the structure, and around the structure. How much power the altar currently has, the maximum power it can have, and its recharge rate can be seen in the Altar's GUI as.

Non-standard upgrades
Non-standard upgrades can only be placed on top of the Altar structure. Only one of each non-standard upgrade may be used per Altar. Upgrades listed with two items can only have one of the listed items; they do not stack.

Standard upgrades
Standard upgrades can be placed anywhere within the Altar's range (16 blocks without an Arthana), and, typically, have less effects or less powerful effects than the non-standard upgrades.

A Mystic Branch can be placed on top of the Altar, but this has no functional purpose; it is purely decorational.

* Side note: the Altar does not recognise damage values (the number after the colon in an item's block code) as seperate items. For example: Oak logs (block code 17) Spruce logs (17:1) Birch logs (17:2) and Jungle logs (17:3) all count as being the same log type (therefore 50 Oak logs and 50 Spruce logs will not stack in terms of Altar power) however 50 of any assortment of the four types can be used. (Dark Oak(162:1) and Acacia(162) logs are counted as the same type, but not the same as Oak, Spruce, ect.). This applies to leaves, Tall grass and Ferns, Poppies(36) and any other vanilla flower(36:__) except Dandelions(37), as well as Rowan/Alder/Hawthorn logs/leaves/saplings. With this in mind, "50 Per type" may or may not apply to whichever additional mod may be installed.
