    Ars magica 2 Fire guardian - strategy?

    ^ This right there. That's why Minecraft is great; 2 very different ways to crack the egg. Good stuff.

    Redius Reboots with Resonant Rise

    And now for something a little different, it's...... Redius Walks the Path of Exile. I've started up a new LP series on the Action RPG known as "Path of Exile". It's a free-to-play MMO that follows in the ideological vein of Diablo and Torchlight, but (at least in my opinion) is WAY more...

    Beginner's Guide to Blood Magic

    Silly question, but you right clicked the air first to bind the activation crystal to your character, right? Also, it's not that you've got particle effects off (i.e. it's working, and you can't see it)?

    Ars magica 2 Fire guardian - strategy?

    1. Blood armor doesn't have durability. No damage done to it. 2. I don't think you understand; with blood armor and the fire resist sigil in it he does ZERO damage to you. None. Zilch. Zip. Zero. Nada. There is literally no risk in bashing him into a wall so he can't fly. 3. You're...

    Ars magica 2 Fire guardian - strategy?

    Blood magic armor with fire resist so that he can't hurt you. Tart/paper/thaum rapier with nothing but Quartz upgrades does 7 damage per strike (I'm 99% sure of that, at work, can't check, but if needed, I'll check it tonight). Summon, and smash him into a wall over and over. Collect loot.

    Redius Reboots with Resonant Rise

    Part two is live.....FOR SCIENCE! Finishing up the reactor, turbines and powering the heck out of my base. Link to the Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=SPSX4XZv8UlqoXswpvEfvc3_8ZpbOOOQKT Link to the Texturepack (courtesy of GreenGriffon)...

    Don't forget that the energy blaster can be upgraded to the Energy Bazooka! (all in all, great work Padfoote!)

    ...or get blood armor with full fire resistance on one piece and laugh as he can't hurt you. #outsidethebox

    Redius Reboots with Resonant Rise

    I got an episode done earlier than normal, enjoy! FOR SCIENCE! Spamming Hydrogen generators wasn't keeping our power reserves flowing, especially when all the Mekanism factories were going full bore. So we've rectified the problem. When in doubt, go nuclear....and we do. Link to the...

    Blood. Magic. Bazooka. Recoil be damned, it'll do some serious damage.

    How often do you visit other people's bases?

    A lot of the new(er) players use my base as well; we keep the Mystcraft ages there (I'm an OP, and we keep Mystcraft creation limited to help TPS/Lag), as well as my smeltery, and to swipe XP berries from my farm. I like having people visit; it's a great way to stay in touch with everyone...

    How often do you visit other people's bases?

    My server has a nice mix of situations. I live further out (I wanted to build in the ocean, dome-style). Most everyone else that was in from the beginning of the world lives closer...some as few as a hundred blocks from each other. I'd say about half of us build solo, the rest partnered up...

    Dryads

    Still spawning on an existing world, or fresh start? I'm just curious (might take a fresh world to erase them from existence).

    Blood Magic Discussion [1.6]

    If you want a very simple tutorial that covers the first 2 altars; I tried to explain the how and why of each block, and the intro tools. Ako's spotlight is far more in-depth, mine is the basic mechanics. (I liked reading info better than YouTubes, so I tried to record my tutorial for people...

    Industrialization Suggestion Thread

    As much as I want to agree with "BIG OMG BIGGUR!", I have to throw the cautionary voice with "please make sure it'll fit in a "normal" base". I don't want to have to build a 9x9 chunk structure to process my first piece of iron...that's not a feasibly fun way to go about things. Big...

    Ars Magica 2 community spellbook

    My only real complaint with AM2 is that it's difficult to know the effect of unlocked components/shapes before you go through the trouble of crafting the spell. For example; Radius. What exactly is the effect of Radius? Does stacking Radius increase the....radius? Radius + AoE = Moar AoE...

    MJ/RF with solar energy/something else without maintenance

    ICx - Windmills, Solar panels (compact versions of both). Mekanism - Electrolytic Separators + Hydrogen generators (needs a jump start, self sustaining after) Atomic Science - Chemical engines + Steam Funnel + Rotary Turbine (needs a jump start, but self sustaining after) Treefarms, Boiler...
