what is a good power source? which requires less time refilling.. at the moment, I have 5 x 5 big reactor. it's good and all.. but requires yellowrium I know it's pretty common, and very easy to find, but sick of needing to keep looking for the stuff. i'd much rather focus on other stuff.
ftb infinity best power source?

Do remember that with MFR being part of it, you can (theoretically) use the Laser Drill with the right focus to generate enough yellorium to power the reactor(s) needed for the laser and more.
If you go this route then go with a turbine to generate the power, if memory servers me right this makes the reactor a lot more efficient and as a result you have more power for your base.
Yes, thank you chap - I knew I hadn't mentioned something!
Its not too complicated, the drill uses a lot of power but its not unmanageable.
The most complicated part of it is getting the resources.
You need pink slime ball for it and you can only get that by placing a bucket of pink slime in the world and wait a bit.
To get pink slime you need an slaughter house kill quit a bit of mobs.
As for how much power you need: a lot but if your reactor is to inefficient you will also not be able to do it. This is why I recommend using a turbine.

Yeah, you're going to need 5000 RF/t per precharger, and 4 prechargers is probably what you'd need to generate enough yellorite ore.
In theory you could break even with 1 rf/t you just need to make sure you make enough to get the ore and process it before your out of yelorium.
Another way to get it is probably bees(not looked into them yet)
Short answer: Villager tears.
Longer answer:
Villagers in a well of suffering, powering lava crystals.

Why do you hate villagers that much?
Back on topic this could also be an valid option if you go this way you can also use a cursed earth mob farm instead of villagers.
It's a long, harrowing story of murder and betrayal.
Well, true. Will the drill work little bit by little bit even with a tiny bit of power then? With the regards to breakeven, it depends on how fast your reactor burns through its fuel; if its very economical, you might well be able to manage it.
You monster.
I like you.
You bought flint for both gravel and emeralds, didn't you?
I tried to get a refund, this was CLEARLY a swindle.
All the vendor would say was "HNRG".
So I pushed him into a smeltery.
ok back on topic.
some doable ways to get power
solar panels I believe seeing rf producing ones at least
tree farm to steam
pumping lava from the nether
if mystcraft is in infinity then replace lava and nether with liquid of your choice that burns and mystcraft age
bigreactors
using food and the culinary generators.
Did I miss any?
