Description

Quantum Leggings are the top-tier electric leg armor from IndustrialCraft 2 Experimental, storing 10,000,000 EU and turning sprinting into the fastest sustainable movement in IC2. While charged, Quantum Leggings make sprinting roughly 3.4 times faster: hold the IC2 boost key (Ctrl by default) while sprinting to activate QuantumSprint, at a running cost of about 10,000 EU per 80 meters; the boost also works while swimming and dashes across ice at very high speed. Quantum Leggings sit at Tier 4 (Extreme Voltage, EV), so they accept up to 2048 EU/t and must be charged in an MFSU — an MFE or BatBox sits below Tier 4 and cannot charge them at all. Crafting Quantum Leggings uses a Nano-Leggings in the center of a 3x3 bench, a Lapotron Crystal at the top-center between two Machine Blocks, Iridium on the left and right of the middle row, and Glowstone Dust in the bottom corners. Quantum Leggings do not negate fall damage — that is the QuantumSuit Boots' job, absorbing a fall at 900 EU per block of height beyond the first four. Quantum Leggings drain EU per absorbed damage as well, so they double as armor that still protects after a Quantum Chestplate empties. They are not obtainable in vanilla Minecraft — Iridium Ore is rare and typically comes from UU-Matter, and a Lapotron Crystal needs an Energy Crystal upgrade. Supported on Forge 1.7.10, 1.10.2, 1.11.2, and 1.12.2.

Guide

How to craft and use Quantum Leggings in Minecraft

  1. 1

    Gather the components

    You need a Nano-Leggings, two Machine Blocks, two Iridium, two Glowstone Dust, and a Lapotron Crystal. Iridium Ore is rare and most players produce it from UU-Matter in a Mass Fabricator.

  2. 2

    Craft in a 3x3 bench

    Place the Nano-Leggings in the center of a crafting bench, the Machine Blocks in the top corners with the Lapotron Crystal between them, Iridium on the left and right of the middle row, and Glowstone Dust in the bottom corners.

  3. 3

    Charge in an MFSU

    Quantum Leggings are Tier 4 (EV) and accept up to 2048 EU/t. Charge them in an MFSU; an MFE or BatBox is below Tier 4 and cannot charge them at all.

  4. 4

    Equip and activate QuantumSprint

    Wear the Quantum Leggings, hold the IC2 boost key (Ctrl by default) and sprint to run roughly 3.4 times faster. Release the key when underground chunk loading lags behind your speed.

  5. 5

    Budget your EU

    QuantumSprint costs about 10,000 EU per 80 meters and also works while swimming; on ice you dash at very high speed. Plan recharges at an MFSU before long expeditions.

Tip

Craft the Quantum Leggings with a fully charged Nano-Leggings and the finished piece comes out already charged — useful before you have built an MFSU.
