    Best New Modular Powersuit Setup?

    I have never had an issue with the TE3 recipes. They show up in NEI under..."JSON shaped" IIRC. They work just fine for me, including wiring (3 silver/6 copper). Sent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk

    So Many Silverwood Saplings...

    The lumber axe is not free. It is a high-end TiCo tool that requires a tool forge to make (4 blocks of iron) and a fully functioning smeltery with lava power to make from useful materials. You may consider it "cheaper" than the axe of the stream but it's far from free. Sent from my GT-N7105...

    Best New Modular Powersuit Setup?

    MPS has nothing on the Blood Magic bound armour. Bound armour makes MPS look like BOP mud armour. Sent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk

    Dumb Tricks - Dumb/OP Mod Interactions Edition

    Hadn't gotten a response to this by the time I got home, so I decided to test it out myself. Opened up a creative world, went to the Nether, and broke into the bedrock above the Nether. I laid down a layer of dirt, planted 4 rainbow saplings in a 2x2 formation, applied some bonemeal...and sure...

    Dumb Tricks - Dumb/OP Mod Interactions Edition

    Since they grow down through the terrain...has anyone tested if you can punch a hole through the bedrock like the dark oaks can? Sent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk

    Genny also said on reddit that he will be doing FTB also, but with a new "twist" that he would reveal later. Sent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk

    Dumb Tricks - Dumb/OP Mod Interactions Edition

    It is, but a chisel is way easier and cheaper. The recipe only requires a stick and one iron ingot, has infinite uses/no durability, requires no power to use, and can convert blocks a stack at a time. Sent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk

    Tinker Construct question

    This happens with the battleaxe also. What I've noticed is that if you just drop lapis on it, you will get one but not the other. If you hit things/break stuff/whatever, it will build up both. It was always annoying for me, because by default adding lapis to the battleaxe only gives you fortune...

    Best Melee Weapon (Damage) in Monster

    I ended up testing this. With jagged on a cutlass, the max boost I ever got was .5 hearts no matter how low I got the durability. You'll get better results using all paper/thaumium and adding more quartz. On a max durability battleaxe I seem to recall that I got a slight boost using jagged...

    Peoples Favorite Starting Routines on a new server/world

    The other advantage of the twilight forest is that sea level is way lower than in the overworld. Overworld sea level is 64, twilight forest is like 30 -35. You're already starting out very close to redstone/gold/lead/silver level. Any decent ravine will have you at diamond level instantly, open...

    What are the Worst crimes you have done in FTB

    The only puzzle I've ever found in there is "how can I get all this mossy cobble back to my base in the fewest number of trips?" Sent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk

    This game sometimes...

    In my current Monster world, I set up my base and got a smeltery up and running very quickly. I was lucky to find a surface lava pool about fifty or so blocks north of my base. I needed to get an emerald for silk touch on my TiCo steel pick, so I set out looking for a village. Seriously, it was...

    Oil/Fuel usage

    In previous worlds, yes. Not yet in this one, hence the lack of need for boiler-level power. Sent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk

    Oil/Fuel usage

    I haven't specifically tested this myself. I read the stuff about it supporting 18 steam dynamos in another thread where people were discussing how much steam the boiler produces in 1.6 and how many dynamos it can support when cold/max temp. I then read another thread about fuel efficiency in...

    I did too, until 1.6.

    Oil/Fuel usage

    Old Railcraft: steam per tick was constant regardless of temperature. New Railcraft in the 1.6 packs: steam per tick rises with the temperature of the boiler, so it will not output max steam if it's not at max temperature. If you're concerned with fuel conservation, you're better off going to...

    Best Melee Weapon (Damage) in Monster

    Two questions about TiCo, not sure if anyone has tested these: 1. Which would do more damage? Battleaxe 1, cobalt/manyullyn heads, paper rod/binding, flux + max quartz. Battleaxe 2, manyullyn heads and rod for max durability, cactus binding for jagged, ground down to near death then flux + max...

    FTB, Highest Mindcraft version?

    Not true. Baj is testing the pack right now. He posted a video of him playing the beta and the mod list 1-2 months ago on his YouTube account. Sent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk

    Laptop Question (sorry)

    All three are very important. Take it from me: you absolutely DO NOT want to play minecraft on a laptop with integrated Intel graphics. It may not be necessary to go full bore and get the best graphics card, but you definitely will want to make sure you get a dedicated card. Sent from my...
