Materials in Tinker's Construct have 'traits', special abilities or effects that are applied to a tool when made out of those materials. Tinker's Aether materials are no exception.

Most of these traits are taken directly from abilities that these materials have when you make regular, lame, non-tinker's tools from them.

Antigravity

Antigravity allows a tool to make blocks float when you right click them, provided you're sneaking, at the cost of 5 durability.
It only works on blocks the tool is effective against, and can harvest. e.g. Pickaxes work on stone and ores it can mine, but not wood, dirt, or ores with too high of a harvest level.
Antigravity is applied to tools with Gravitite heads.

Launching

Launching will launch (living) entities up into the air when you hit them.
Launching is applied to tools with any Gravitite part.

Zany

Zany makes a tool mine faster the closer it gets to being broken. Sort of like 'Stonebound', but better.
At or below 80% durability: x2 multiplier
At or below 60% durability: x3 multiplier
At or below 40% durability: x4 multiplier
At or below 20% durability: x6 multiplier
The current multiplier can be viewed by putting your tool in a Tool Station or Tool Forge.
Zany is applied to tools with Zanite heads.

Enlightened

Enlightened grants tools a 5% chance to drop an Ambrosium shard when a block is broken.
Enlightened is applied to tools with Holystone heads.

Rooted

Rooted doubles drops from naturally generated Aether blocks.
It only works on blocks the tool is effective against, and that generated naturally, meaning you can't just place Aether Dirt or Holystone down and duplicate it, it needs to have been generated in the world.
Also only works on Aether blocks.
Rooted is applied to tools with Skyroot heads.

Gilded

Gilded lets an axe harvest Golden Amber from Golden Oak logs.
Gilded is applied to tools with Gravitite heads, or any Golden Amber part.

Any other traits you see are from Tinker's Construct itself, or perhaps another add-on.
