    Is "Blood Magic" Overpowered?

    It's pretty difficult for that mechanic to not end up being infinite LP, one way or another. If it isn't 6 witches (the #rr "witch reactor") then it's golems. If it isn't golems, it's ars bosses. If it isn't ars bosses, it's the horned huntsman. We've always considered thsi somewhat offset by...

    What is YOUR most important mod?

    One of the many reasons I actually preferred the mechanical refinements of 4E. 3.5 became this bizarre cops-and-robbers optimization game. 4e was all about building parties that worked, not extreme characters. Party performance was exponentially more powerful than any single character's...

    What would you like to see in a Magic Mod?

    Armor lacking in magic mods? I'm covered in magical armor and gems and stuff... I have special items to access special inventories... So many do them. Runic, Blood, jewelery, protective items, heart containers,

    What is YOUR most important mod?

    I suppose so, but the vanilla recipe list is shorter than many families grocery lists. It's certainly less complicated than a family of multiplication tables that most children learn by rote. I see D&D 3.5 players are still busy making everything that is not a mage obsolete. I thought we hit...

    What is YOUR most important mod?

    Tough call. Blood Magic and Witchery are both incredible, but I don't think any single mod actually is as important as the interplay between them. For example, if all you had was AE you'd never need AE. Similarly, NEI is like, um, really not necessary if you're just playing vanilla. You can...

    Poll: Do you like GregTech?

    Zorn. You can remove my name and content from your signature or I will go to FTB mods about it. You have no fair use right to that content, and I do not want you misquoting me anymore.

    Beginner's Guide to Blood Magic

    I am glad that I can't do what I did anymore. The new system means you want to fill altars at one site then translocate them to other sites for use. This build is so amazingly awesome and mind blowing that it's worth the added complexity.

    Favourite FTB Youtuber/s Reloaded

    Being mentioned in the same breath as such legends as Ako and Etho is not an honor I deserve. I watch Ako, Saice, sometimes BevoLP, and recently I've found a kindred spirit with Gar from ChaosVille. I don't know why, but I don't enjoy Dire as much as I used to. It's weird, because I can still...

    Best Melee Weapon (Damage) in Monster

    ... I'm pretty sure I was the "he" you were referring to and linked to $50 unlock stuff. I updated my post with the exact nature of the tools. So please, don't make me be uncivil. It's a serious accusation that could lead to serious difficulties on my part. Even implying it is something I have...

    Best Melee Weapon (Damage) in Monster

    Will you stop accusing us of stealing your mod when we are not distributing your mod? We do not distribute RotaryCraft. We have never distributed RotaryCraft. We have not even linked to RotaryCraft. Our modlist is maintained and published in real time by a computer script that parses XML that...

    Best Melee Weapon (Damage) in Monster

    What's going to happen here, realistically, is that the parts of your mod that totally ignore the entire ecosystem are going to start to have their recipes removed from modern modpacks. Many of us are doing it now, and some of us have tools so thorough that it won't even show up in NEI anymore...

    Simulating Sunlight at Bedrock Level.

    Carpenters slopes count as transparent. Mariculture blocks as well. Sadly you're in a very old version of modded minecraft where this task is actually kinda hard.

    Redstone Energy Cell w/ BC Gates

    They do addition and subtraction. Their function is not very difficult and they are very useful. However, you should consider using the Project Red equivalent. With WAILA installed, they're an order of magnitude easier to understand.

    Generating ALL the power

    The best combo here is liquid Redstone and blaze powder reactant. You can manufacture blaze powder with these components as well.

    Giving Credit where Credit is Long Overdue

    It is Jaded's right and responsibility to delete posts. That does not mean that I am not allowed to be offended, or express offense, when she deletes one of mine and calls it "drama." I've started these threads because I think they're really important conversations surrounded by a constellation...

    I am am actually quite offended at this characterization of the discussion. Just fyi, Miss Moderator.

    Mojang Reps Saying Modders Can't Have Terms on Their Mods

    I'd have to examine the situation specifically rather than imagine a mutable hypothetical.

    Mojang Reps Saying Modders Can't Have Terms on Their Mods

    That is good. But no one can steal a mod very well, man. Because your mods are ongoing and living things. Old mods that stop getting developed actively are gone in mere months. They have no shelf life. So your productivity is what sets you ahead of the pack.

    Mojang Reps Saying Modders Can't Have Terms on Their Mods

    That's a dangerous game. Good modpacks do a profound service to modders; we offer support forums, field and reproduce bugs, and help keep the modders focused on real bugs and not managing a flood of chatter to their servers. This is something I take pretty seriously with RR, and we've spent...

    Mojang Reps Saying Modders Can't Have Terms on Their Mods

    The "problem" with it is that Mojang doesn't care if it is or isn't. You're in violation of Mojang's copyright if you release content for their game that conforms to that license, and evidently they're keen to enforce this. It's going to be a "problem" because some modders will be absolutely...
