Using Inks

The ink is selected according to the relevant property of the spell being researched. It is separate from the spell's resistance-based additive and effect-based thickener.

Once the required ink has been identified, use the recipe table above to gather the necessary powders, pigments and Vials of Pure Water before beginning the spell research combine.
