Mods/Thaumcraft/Getting Started

Creating your wand
First you need some iron caps, those are made by placing iron nuggets in a shape of a helmet onto a crafting bench. You need 2 caps. Then you need a stick. Combine your stick and caps in a diagonal shape with the stick in the middle, and there you have your Iron Capped Wooden Wand.

Thaumonomicon
Get your wand and a bookself. Hit the bookself with a wand and a Shiny Thaumonomicon will appear. Pick it up and you have your in game "wiki" on your hands.

Researching
You should also read the thaumonomicon entry for this. To get started on researching, first you need a Thaumometer. Then go around the world scanning all sorts of things. Firt you can't scan everything because you don't know the aspects for it. You can combine them in the Research Table. You can make a research table by placing two tables next to eachother and clikcing them with Scribing tools. Then, when you have got some aspects, you can start researching. You have to connect all the nodes by activating runes. More info can be found from the thaumonomicon.
