Of course you can ask whatever question you like wherever you like, but likewise others can answer any question they like wherever they like. If you want help my advice is to try working a bit on your attitude. Acting like a jerk doesn't make a lot of people willing to help you. Lucky for you a...

Did you do the Witchery quests? To get started in Thaumcraft you need to do the quest for the Treefyd seed.

I upgraded from 0.8.3 to 0.8.4 without any troubles with my auto assemblers. I have quite a few of them as well, around 20.

I figured that yes. My trouble now is how to conditionally pull more than 4 slates with only 4 gates :)

Infernal wand definitely helps for Gaia 2! Together with my blood magic potions (I think I forgot to mention Resistance IV in my last post) I had no trouble at all... Not having to worry about staying out of the purple stuff is awesome. I didn't even wear my terrasteel armor (had changed into...

Haha Vazkii might fix that bug now you made a video of it :p... Some people will definitely find it cheaty... I'll have to try this :D But I also fight the first many endermen hiding under a 2 block tall roof, some people might call that cheating too...

With Blood Magic you can make some pretty powerful potions. Strength IV, Absorption IV, Speed IV all for 5-10 minutes should be good for the fight. That did the trick for me :)... Still a tough battle though. I didn't bother going through the hassle of making greater catalyst instead I got them...

I didn't start out with it all at once either ;) build it small steps at a time with levers in the basement and input/output in a single chest in the basement, then got tired of having to jump into the basement all the time and moved output and levers up besides my altar... You golem setup is...

Okay I'll try explaining my Blood Magic slate automation with some screenshots now... There are 3 levels: the altar level, just below the altar and below the floor under the altar. I hope it makes a sense. It was a bit difficult to explain :)

My automation started out requiring someone to self-sacrifice all the time for the slates til be produced, since we went for self-sacrifice to start with. The elven knife was pretty good for that combined with self-sacrifice runes. Later I added a Well of Suffering and a dark room with some...

I was planning on using a hungry node too! I already have coordinates for a few of them written down. When I get home I will try creating a test world with the same seed to see if I can taint a hungry node, before wrecking the server with potentially unnecessary taint!

I used a buildcraft autharchic gate with the single pulse setting. I actually automated the first 4 tier runes completely with buildcraft and the automagy redcrystals. I can post some screenshots later if you want to see :)

Oh I actually didn't think the Manasteel grafter worked on Silverwood trees, grafters didn't work with silverwood last time I played with Thaumcraft... Well then that's the way to go for sure! Crazy cheap for 1 mana steel, when you have a decent mana production going to fuel it.

Can't argue with math like that - thanks for the tip! :)

Getting vines should be an easy task when you get to bees :) 7 nature essence gives you 16 vines. Vines also compost. I had a ton of nature essence and practically no use for it until I started composting vines. You'll get a nice amount of garden soil in no time :D I didn't know about the...
