Blood Orbs

Blood Orbs are the items used by Blood Magic to turn Life Essence inside of a Blood Altar into usable LP in the user's Soul Network. They are also used to supply LP for recipes in the Alchemic Chemistry Set.

Name Min Altar Capacity Notable Materials Required
Weak Blood Orb T1 5,000 LP Aluminium & Annealed Copper
Apprentice Blood Orb T2 25,000 LP Stainless Steel & Rose Gold
Magician Blood Orb T3 150,000 LP Titanium & Pulsating Iron
Master Blood Orb T4 1,000,000 LP Tungsteensteel & Energetic Alloy
Archmage Blood Orb T5 10,000,000 LP Rhodium-Plated Palladium & Fiery Steel
Transcendent Blood Orb T6 30,000,000 LP Iridium & Plutonium 241
Transparent Blood Orb T6 30,000,000 LP Transcendent Blood Orb
Eldritch Blood Orb T6 80,000,000 LP Neutronium & Primordial Pearl
Blood Orb of Armok T6 1,000,000,000 LP Infinity & Cosmic Neutronium

Blood Orbs may only be filled in a Blood Altar that is the same or higher tier. Orbs of a minimum Altar Tier are required by most Orb Crafting and Alchemic Chemistry Set recipes. Recipes in NEI automatically cycle through all potentially valid orbs and list them out when hovering over the orb.

A Blood Orb's capacity may be increased by adding runes of the orb to a Blood Altar. Each one increases the LP capacity by +4% from the original maximum. 13 runes of the orb are required to start the Convocation of the Damned with the Archmage Blood Orb, and 54 are required to reach the maximum 2,147,483,647 LP capacity with the Blood Orb of Armok.

The Transcendent Blood Orb used to craft Transparent Blood Orbs is not consumed, allowing for many cheap T6 orbs to be made for use in Alchemic Chemistry Sets, Alchemic Calcinators, and Arcane Plinths. The Blood Orb of Armok instantly fills its owner's soul network to 1,000,000,000 LP if it ever falls below that while in a player's inventory or inside of a Blood Altar with at least 1L of Life Essence (which is not consumed).
