So, I recently built a Lucerna ritual with what I feel are pretty good stats (size 3, purity 2, shape 3, effect 3, range 2, lucerna focus 2) and was rather underwhelmed by the range of it. Granted, it seems to be about a 90 block radius, but that barely covers my base and standing anywhere near the edges still results in mobs pathfinding in en masse.

I could certainly build another, but it's quite a lot of effort to get a good crystal like this. It feels like the range could be a bit bigger.

In that regard, I decided to power it up with an Enhanced Crystal Collector. Boy was that mistake. The collector crystal is size 3, purity 2, shape 3, rate 3, lucerna focus 2, and attuned to lucerna. I had it split between my crafting altar and my ritual altar and walked away for about 6 hours. I came back to find the ritual crystal in pieces. It was still functional but with the pieces that were missing the empowered setup was now about on par with the previous non-empowered setup.

At this point, I noticed that my lenses (all purity 2) were not properly aligned (y level change caught me off guard). Thinking this was part of the problem, I realigned them, linked everything back up, and set the collector crystal to only power the ritual.

The range at this point was quite sufficient to protect my base (though considerably less than I would have expected coming from 1.12), but... 30 minutes later I already had fractured crystals. This seems really harsh for something that's a convenience item. I can see fracturing happening quickly for some of the more powerful rituals, but I feel this is too quick for Lucerna.

Is there something I'm missing/overlooking/doing wrong here?
