I've been trying to set up a wisp spawner using the ones that are under the dark node structures. But it seems that no wisps want to spawn. I am at y level 210 for minimal mob spawn but I can't get on to spawn.

They do? Every time I come across the obsidian totem platforms that have the wisp spawners, they never spawn for me. I even waited one in-game night there one time just to make sure.

Is it too bright for the spawner? I'm on DW20 1.0.7 and I moved 2 wisp spawners into a dark room near my base. I used Dark Glass so I could see in but it would stay dark in the spawning room. It works good, but like most (vanilla) spawners only works when a player is near.

Also what did you use to move the spawner? I used a portal gun for mine.
 
I believe that in thaumcraft 4 the spawn rules of whisps got changed. One of them is that the biome must be magical. So if this is on one of the 1.6 packs try to find a magical biome if its not then I have no idea why they do not spawn.

Oh that could explain why it works at my base. I've been planting silverwood trees and waiting for them to convert the area to magical forest.

DW20 1.0.7 doesn't even have Force Wrench nor does it have Dart Craft, are you sure you had that in DW20 1.0.7 (Minecraft 1.6.4)?

I still do wonder how do people move around spawners other than Portal gun since there are no SoulShards, no DartCraft, no RotaryCraft, Modular Armor wrench addon also doesn't work on spawners. Limited to Re-useable safari net?

PS: Tried with Terrain Smasher as well.. no luck.

There's also an item called the portaspawner from MFR which can move vanilla spawners about

im not on dw20 pack, im on a private pack with different mods installed, like dart craft.
 
u can also use the wand cap of dislocatioin or what ever its called, dire even used it on the latest multiplayer episode
 
ah okay, so... really high end items can move spawners... kind of pointless at end game, usually try to have several spawners for mats they drop to get to end game... oh well, safari net will have to do.
 
You can still do it the vamilla way, make a mob trap out of the spawner on site. Might not be the most efficient way but at least it works.

I found three of them right next to one and other, and two duel witch Spawers and a load of big villages, I got a portal gun from a temple and even found a division sigil in one of the blacksmith or other chests laying about. But the biggest thing I found, well exploring was in fact 3 whisp spawners back to back not long after I found my portal gun, I have yet to move them but its still pretty great I might in fact post the seed for it at some point if anyone wishes to check out the seed on the whole. It has at least three gaint factiozation guys. And two meteors and loads and loads of village space. If you go to Twilight Forrest and get a bird morph or find a bat its pretty straight forward, the Jungle has two temples and the Jungle is not far from the start more or less. But I am pretty sure you need a Aura node, just as the spawners in the wild have so do they need it. Just as for Mooshrum spawners require the proper dirt.
