Floating crystals are extremely important for Astral Sorcery and is how to begin your journey.
Where to Find?[]
Floating crystals are naturally generated underneath various large structures scattered across the world. Once a player has made the 3rd tier of astral sorcery's crafting tables they're able to craft their own Floating Crystals using the Altar.
Functionality[]
Collector Crystals provide the starlight needed to craft the beginners items shining light on nearby crafting tables. You are able to have a crystal relay starlight to a nearby Altar to craft higher tier items.
Collector Crystals cannot be harvested, even with Silk Touch tools, so altars should be built close to collector crystals in order to harness them. Lenses can be used to relay light from collector crystals to other locations, but some Starlight is lost with each relay used.
Astral Tome Entry[]
The floating crystals are quite bizarre. They appear to emit a constant shimmering Starlight that flickers in and eerie and enchanting way.
There is little doubt that these crystals are artificial. Their true age and origin is practically impossible to determine, but after some observation the crystal energies seem to be fixed in their alignment with the stars.
