The **Ancient Manipulator** is an endgame crafting station mainly used to craft items from Luminite and Lunar Fragments.

## Tips

* The ability to create one fragment from three others can save a player from having to endure the Lunar Events should they be missing only a few of the former.

## Trivia

* Despite the fact it has a rarity of ~~10\*~~, it has no sell value.
* When placed, the orb and accents on the manipulator pulsate in the colors of the four Celestial Pillars.
	+ Even when painted, the Ancient Manipulator continues to cycle between the colors of the Celestial Pillars. Any parts not changing in color adopt the paint color as usual.
* Each Lunar Fragment appears to have chainsaw and hammer variants that are all currently unobtainable.
* Internally, this item is referred to as ``LunarCraftingStation``.
