I was curious about the tiered mana spreaders from Botania so I did a little test, each tier mana spreader has endoflames around it and I keep adding or removing endoflames till the mana spreader can send mana without filling up completely.
for the mana spreader the endoflame count is 8, for the elven mana spreader the count is 15 but for the gaia spreader, who's a tier higher than the elven mana spreader, the endoflame count is also 15, which doesn't make alot of sense since the gaia spreader is a tier higher and in the lexica it's even mentioned that the gaia spreader is better.
so my question is, am I perhaps misunderstanding the differences between the elven and gaia spreaders or am I doing something wrong?
I also know you can add lenses to improve spreaders, but the tests are all done without lenses.
