>< it should be noted that like most salvage made items, this is a humongous ripoff. its the equivilanet of 10 mystic bookshelves in the amount of control it produces. it uses the SAME amount of energy that having ten of those would take. it COST MORE then just putting those 10 shelves down. The only advantage to having this, is if it wasn't bugged and allowed you to connect it to the Magic Axis, is that it only would take 1 aux slot instead of 10, which, considering the cost, isn't all that important at the point in the game where you actually have enough to just waste it on one of more of these. --[[User:Sleepykitty|Sleepy Kitty]] 19:32, 17 December 2006 (PST) | >< it should be noted that like most salvage made items, this is a humongous ripoff. its the equivilanet of 10 mystic bookshelves in the amount of control it produces. it uses the SAME amount of energy that having ten of those would take. it COST MORE then just putting those 10 shelves down.
