Hi Everyone,

I was wondering how do different people gather resources. I am not very familiar with all the mods in monster so i wonder if people have variation.

For me ATM
Early Game: Spelunk
Mid Game: Quarries With:Charcoal
Late Game: Quarries With:(Not their yet)


I find this pretty standard as I have been doing this every since modded survival started.

So, How do you gather resources? (Early game,Mid Game,Late Game) (Power?) I am sure we can all learn from each other.
 
Early Game: Caving
Mid Game: Mekanism's Atomic Disassembler charged by whatever power gen I have.
Late-Mid Game+: Blood Magic's Bound Pickaxe and its Beast Mode ability.

Blood Magic in not on by default but that sounds pretty cool
also Mekanism's Atomic Disassembler is not in monster
 
It monster for me, I cannot run that pack
Early game: caving, mining at low y levels, quarries if I have buildcraft
Midgame: ditto, add in TiC tools
Lategame: all previous, add in MFR laser drill and TC4 arcane bore. Also destruction catacalyst[DOUBLEPOST=1394913080][/DOUBLEPOST]

I don't use Monster, but if I did I'd just get the resources required for the Bound Pickaxe and go nuts with that. Makes a quarry look like it can't mine if used correctly.

I have not gotten far enough into bm yet, but is it better than an awakened ichorium pick on square mode?
 
I tend to break blocks and pick up what they drop, but that's just me

Actually though, I tend to manually mine for most of my playthroughs, until I want to spend more time on other things, so I'll get a turtle, quarry, or some other thing like that.

Reactions: Shevron, Celestialphoenix and kilteroff
Early Game: AM2 Projectile + Dig
Mid Game: Same but more so.
Late Game: No idea, hopefully an awakened ichorium pick due the the benefit of mining bedrock with it.

I haven't gotten far enough into Kami to compare them, probably should get going on that since the comparison seems to happen a lot. But Beast Mode is a (I believe) 20x20x20 area mined out as soon as you right click.

And leave it to @SatanicSanta to be a troll. :p

I mean, awakened ichorium can open a new dimension and dig a 50 block long tunnel in 5 seconds, butvai never actually got awakened ichorium pick myself
 
Early: hand mining
Mid: hand or turtle programs
End: 4 64x64 quarries moved by turtles. Each powered by 20 magmatic dynamos

So it sounds like they're about equal there, other than the cost to get them and use them.

I would say Ichorium pick is superior in using it as you don't need to be worried about overusing it or setting up a big infrastructure for behind it.
But crafting it in the first place is so much harder..
