    Please give me a solution on how to better protect myself from creepers

    It's okay, I guess, but when there's better for easier...(not that it's hard to get, really...I've got about 100 cobalt and ardite ore, and I've only mined the nether once.) There are at least a couple things with higher damage, and lots of things with equal damage plus an effect (life steal...

    What cool little thing have you discovered today?

    So do I. Mostly it's because I grew up sharing a computer and the rest of my family is right-handed, so the typical mouse/keyboard setup (when mice became a thing, that is) is what I became used to.

    Alright. Weird Question...

    Unless it's been disabled in monster, you can also make yourself an ender portal using magical crops instead of searching for a stronghold.

    Please give me a solution on how to better protect myself from creepers

    Yep. Wearing obsidian head, legs, and feet with a top of the line simply jetpacks jetpack (armored, of course) and I'm basically immune to damage. I'll probably switch for something else eventually...or at least enchant the armor. BTW, OP, manyullyn is actually a pretty crappy choice for a...

    Those little things that irk you about Minecraft

    I picked up 3 stacks of it out of a chest the other day (I had 16 laser drills running....) and suddenly everything around me in about a 10 block radius caught fire. I'd carried single blocks before, but didn't realize that apparently the more you carry, the more fire you get. Fortunately I...

    Wisp Farm

    I don't know about spawning them from a spawner, but I built my mob farm in a magical forest in AS, and ended up with hundreds of ethereal essences from my grinders. No idea if mob spawner spawned versions are any different.

    What mods do you add to Agrarian Skies?

    I was thinking about starting a new playthrough adding either mekanism or enderio, just so I had a furnace that didn't take 6 months to smelt things (I love TE, but if I have any other options I only use the pulverizer for recipes only it has, and I don't use redstone furnaces.) I'd want to...

    Agrarian Skys help, venting, and discussion thread

    I'm fairly certain you can manufacture bees/saplings from liquid protein and DNA using Gendustry, but I'm not sure how useful that is in AS (seems like it'd be useful for making extra princesses in a non-AS world, though.)

    Blood Magic

    When I've got my haste sigil from my armor active, I can jump from a bottom slab over 2 high cobblestone walls (don't want things getting out of my nether portal) so I think it's got you covered. :) Also, it's got step assist (so all my 1 block high cobblestone "don't acidentally walk off the...

    Blood Magic

    If you're talking about the boots of the traveler...slap a haste sigil in your armor. Makes boots of the traveler look like a kid's toy. :) It is, however, kind of dangerous on a skyblock, since it makes it pretty easy to run off the edge....not that I've ever done something like that... :P

    Bound Armour + Sigil of Growth + Master Orb

    Yep. Heck, by the time you get to that point I'd expect most people to have enough automation set up that the items you get from the farms/boiler are insignificant. Also, it requires you to just stand there...I mean, I guess you could set up your machines/ME system so you could stand in the...

    Mek Digial Miner + Rock Hives

    That can, of course, be kind of tricky. I remember the first time I tried inverse mode and it ended up pulling all my ladders and torches out of my strip mine (I usually just mine until I can build the digital miner, and then let it do the rest of my mining for me.) Never occurred to me that...

    So...supposedly it's possible to finish the map without going to the nether. However, I'm at a point where I need infernal bees (for molten combs), and I have no clue how to get them without going to the nether. Looking at the requirements to get them in artificial hives, it says: Infernal...

    I'm trying to avoid having to research everything. I never seem to have enough aqua or terra, because everything seems to require victus, or something made from victus. So close to getting things done (3 in Bee & Trees, though I just need to grow/harvest the trees for the 3rd to last one, 3 in...

    So...trying to get the staff core of the primal. Made the primal cap, scanned it. Fired the projectile, scanned it. Research still isn't unlocked. Anyone know if there are any other prerequisites?

    Mek Digial Miner + Rock Hives

    The only way I've managed to do it is to is to use the inverted mode, and just blacklist everything I don't want it to mine. Be careful, though, as when you do this it'll mine things that aren't normally able to be mined, such as bedrock, buildcraft springs, and gascraft shale.

    Agrarian Skys help, venting, and discussion thread

    So...I've been working on the quest that requires certus combs, and geez...getting to them is taking forever. I've gotten the mellow combs, the redstone combs, and tons of other combs, but even with gendustry just breeding up the bees to make the certus combs takes forever (admittedly, it would...

    All Items that Speed Up Plant Growth via Ticks

    Thaumcraft golems don't get Nature essences or the extra weak essence either. At least, they didn't last I tried it (been a month or two, though, so it may have changed.)

    Agrarian Skys help, venting, and discussion thread

    So, I double checked amaranth saplings and they are indeed from Natura (or at least that's what WAILA says.) Anyone tried them in a multi-farm, or should I go the autonomous activator/harvester route to get the 166,667 needed for the quest?
