Order Crystal (Thaumcraft 5)

The Order Crystal is a glowing ore added by Thaumcraft 5. It is found in clusters of 1-64. When mined, it will drop 1-4 Order Shards (the number of shards it will drop is countable by looking at the block). Silk Touch is ineffective against the Order Crystal, and due to Minecraft 1.8's rendering issues, the block in the inventory is rendered as an item.

Order Crystals will grow from the Aura in the air. However, they cannot be farmed without the Crystal Farmer Research.



Crystal Farmer Research
"Crystal Farmer" is a Research added by Thaumcraft 5. With it, Order Shards can be planted to make Order Crystals, and right-clicking a single shard on an Order Crystal with a Wand will remove just that one Order Shard.
