Umm… no? If you followed the link, you'd see that it says that you need to HAVE a certain level (max is 30) in order to enchant, but you only have to SPEND 1-3 levels (plus ingots) in order to enchant. Jeb said the cost of gaining levels has gone up a bit, but I seriously doubt it's gone up to...

So it would seem the changes are: -1: The experience cost for enchantments is dramatically reduced. The most expensive ones only cost 3 levels now. This is a major plus. -2: You get to see what one of the enchantments is. Also a major plus. Now it isn't 100% random. -3: Now it costs gold...

Sure it does, if you silk touch it. Are you mining it with fortune? You could always carry a backup silk touch pick for stuff like this.

There ARE other ways to teleport you know. For example, EnhancedPortals3(I assume this is the version in this pack) is a fun way to teleport. It requires quite a bit more setup than Mystcraft portals, but that's part of the fun. It also provides WAY more customization options for portals than...

Can't you just dig sideways and move past the point where the poison stops flowing?

True, but there are FTB mods that add a large number of mobs in addition to other things. Twilight Forest adds a lot of mobs. Of course, they are specific to the Twilight Forest. Ars Magica 2 adds a fair number of mobs as well, although it is not in this pack. Several other mods like...

Slowpoke, why was Lycanite's Mobs added? As I said a few posts back, It seems rather out of place.

Does anyone else think Lycanite's Mobs seems a little out of place? It's not that it's a bad mod or anything. I haven't played with it yet so I wouldn't know for sure how fun it is from a combat standpoint. It just seems weird to have a bunch of random HD textured Doom mobs and such things...

Thankfully, that's fixed in the latest version: Basically, spoils bags are no longer dropped by anything. Now, in order to get them, you need to combine four of the same type of card, for different tiered spoils bags. The only way to get these cards, is through killing mobs using a force...

OP made a valid point. A little late though, since it seems that the FTB team is starting to get better at disseminating information. He wasn't asking for more information on when the launcher will be released, just for the FTB team to put important news updates in the news section of this...

I wonder what's up with that? I know Greg Tech and Tinker's Construct can't be included in the same pack, but that's why Unhinged was created. Was Greg part of some new fiasco, or did he decide FTB wasn't good enough for someone of his "caliber"? Either way, that's one less thorn in FTB's...

Really? That's awesome! The wait won't be too much longer then I hope. They're totally right too. People wouldn't of stopped bugging them until the launcher was done, and in addition to the annoyance that would have caused them, more and more players would have gone to use other launchers...

So wait, does this mean they will be able to release the new packs before the new launcher is done? Or are they going to wait until the new launcher is done before releasing them, even if they are ready early?

I still consider this an exploit, but hey, that's just me.

By "standardization" I was referring to how they plan on having it so you download several mods and use them for multiple modpacks instead of downloading each mod multiple times for multiple modpacks. The standard configs, standard nomenclature for the ore dictionary, and so on is the type of...

I agree. That is a feature I doubt I will ever use, and will bring only a little added pleasure to those who actually do use it. It's cool in concept, but a totally superfluous and merely cosmetic feature. If implementing this feature would cause any significant delay to the release of the...

I believe the problem is that mobs don't gain the benefit of all armor pieces. I've suited up zombies in full quantum to test this before, and they weren't hard to kill. I've also suited them up in full Fiery Armor before, but they didn't set me on fire when I attacked them. All pieces had...

This is the most recent information we have regarding the status of the mod packs and the launcher.

Thanks! That's the most sizable and concrete progress report we've had in ages! I'm not being sarcastic. That's really good to know and I'm glad you chose to share this information. Now I just need to patiently wait for Slow to finish remodeling. I guess I'll just have to follow his twitter...

I totally agree with you, MaGriffw. You can find various tidbits of information if your scour the internet looking at twitter accounts, forgecraft vids, and livestreams, but it seems as if you can only find update information everywhere but here. It's like they have something against posting...
