Spending order for essences

  1. Open the pouch with Life

    Show Morgana a Life Essence in the story. This introduces the safe storage and progression side of essences.

  2. Learn your first alchemy with Earth

    The Kadim Cauldron step in the quest uses 4 Earth Essences + 1 Coal; keep an eye on the cauldron until the conversion finishes.

  3. Save Flame / Void for the endgame

    Flame and Void are used heavily in high-level Spellbound / Incendium / Stellarity recipes. Compare the recipe costs.
