You need essence dust and either a diamond or an emerald for the basic one. The basic one can only make weak essence, and is upgraded with 8 essence from crops that are grown from weak essence. This pattern continues until you are growing diamond or emerald essence and once you have 8 spare essence from either of those you can make the final upgrade to your essence stone(IIRC that's the thing you're asking about) that allows you to make any tier of magical essence with it.

Unless you mean things like the cobblestone void stone.

What YX33A said. plus you get the essence from farming essence seeds. You get higher tier essences from farming higher tier seeds, so if you need coal essence for example, look up the recipe for coal seeds and craft one. Then start farming it.

Just as an aside, a huge help to doing this mod is running around mowing the lawn until you get an essence seed
The only other source of essence is mining, but that's a heck of a lot of mining to get enough for the higher ones (16 stacks of essence for diamond/emerald seeds)

Or time torches from dartcraft. I got this in about 10 minutes of afking from a 7*7 mfr farm

It can get kinda ridiculous if with some cross-mod interactions (I'm not one to complain though)

I've been combining sigil of the green grove with a 9x9 golem farm of them
Funny to watch how aggressive the harvesting golem seems to be, and then the gathering golems fighting over picking up the items

Time Torches are awesome. Insanely powerful, sure, and if that bugs people, then they are free to disable the ability to infuse time into a torch. They were even coded specifically to work with two specific Forestry machines(carpenter and squeezer), well, actually, the Time Upgrade was.
Personally I think it may be a bit too good. The torches, I mean. They seem insanely good due to working on pretty much everything. A bunch of Time Torches around your base set to stop? Yeah, MFFS got nothin' on my defenses. In SSP anyway. Forever alone...

We need someone to draw a picture of some hecates prowling near a farm but then for the golems (all with cool looking sunglasses and leather jackets of course) to gang up and go all west side story on their asses. @Succubism ?[DOUBLEPOST=1395013742][/DOUBLEPOST]

I agree pretty much completely. I have never been one to worry about OPness or whatever, I just do what I find fun, but the speed upgrade that comes with the time torches is so abusable thatI will restrict my use of it in further playthroughs. Not that I have anything against its use but I do enjoy other forms of farm acceleration, and in the case if magic crops, mining too and I don't want time torches to dominate my game. I like the stop mode usage by the way, does it work on other players?
