The '''T.E.A. Machine''', or Tempestae Etching Apparatus, is a machine used in the [[Stonemason]] [[Professions|profession]], which players can load with up to 6 stones to be etched prior to using them for crafting.

In order to use the T.E.A. Machine, it must be loaded with gas, obtained by first harvesting an [[empty gas leech]] in the [[Leech Pools]], then filling it from [[gas vents]] in the [[Gassy Grotto]] to produce a [[full gas leech]].

The T.E.A. Machine requires 1 gas per batch of stones, and can hold up to 1000 gas at a time. Each leech adds 10 gas to the [[gas tank]], so filling the machine fully requires 100 leeches.

== Process ==
First the T.E.A. Machine must be loaded with stones. Up to 6 stones of the same type may be loaded into the machine one at a time, each taking 2 seconds.

Then the button is pressed, which activates the etching process. Regardless of the number of stones in the machine, this process takes the same amount of time and consumes 1 gas.

Lastly, the etched stones are removed from the machine all at once. Experience and knowledge is awarded at this step.

In total, etching a batch of 6 stones takes 27 seconds, which averages to 4.66 seconds per stone. However a stone etched individually will take 17 seconds, so it is highly recommended to etch stones in batches.

If at any point the process is aborted, the un-etched stones will be returned to the players inventory, even if the etching part of the process has been completed and the gas has been consumed.
