Athanor

The Great Work of your castle: a hundred revolutions, paid with resources, amber, dragon scales and glory – each one yields an essence.

When the Athanor appears

You do not have to build the Athanor. It appears as the “The Great Work” tab in the Laboratory as soon as Attack, Defense and Engineering technique from Special research have each reached level 10 in that castle. You can deposit and research once your Laboratory is also at level 50.

Every castle has its own Athanor with a hundred stages, called revolutions in the game. Every finished revolution gives this castle one essence, which you bind to a skill under Quintessence – all the way up to the Amber Knight.

Depositing and starting

Pay in the costs of the next revolution – in as many parts as you like. The amounts run far beyond any storehouse; the gearwork remembers every delivery and never takes more than is still missing.
Resources come from the castle itself. With the checkbox "Use resources from hiding place" you also pay in from the Hiding place, first from the storehouse, then from the hiding place. Amber, dragon scales and glory come from your account. Every revolution demands two of the four kinds of amber, one resource type is especially expensive each time, and every tenth revolution costs considerably more. You only need glory, the fame of your Guard, for every fifth revolution from the tenth onwards.
Once everything is paid, you start the revolution with “Start the gearwork”. The running time grows from stage to stage, and every tenth revolution takes one day longer. It depends neither on your laboratory nor on the speed of the world.

Impatient? For gold you finish the running revolution instantly; the longer the remaining time, the more it costs. Alternatively you use a “Time skip” from your stock, which some events hand out.

Rarity and points

As the stage rises, the work changes its rarity from “Common” through “Uncommon”, “Rare”, “Epic” and “Mythic” to “Legendary” – a sign of your progress without any effect of its own. Deposited resources count towards your castle points immediately and towards the Alchemists ranking (see Points & rankings).
