    Help

    Diamond armor or iron armor? Pretty much the same thing. I'd rather use a MPS, though.

    1.5.2 splitting items?

    http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1518185-162-sspsmp-mouse-tweaks-22b/ Not exactly the same, but good enough if you're stuck in 1.4.7.

    How to control a "Cursed Earth" spawner?

    ...This might actually be an amazing idea. Instead of blocking the spawn area with them, why not place the cursed earth with the drawbridges? Unless they turn back into dirt when they're retracted.

    getting started with bee breeding.

    Being a novice beekeeper myself, I have only one piece of advice to give you: you need patience. Even if you have oblivion frames, getting your bees to work as you want might take quite a few tries, which can get annoying pretty quickly. The beginning (the path to Imperial/Industrious) is the...

    How REAL men use steam boilers

    I've always loved how you can store steam in a tank. Now this is just... something else.

    What to do with vines?

    Vine scaffolding is MFR's version of IC2's scafollding, it works almost the same way (although I think it can extend horizontally for more than just a few blocks) and can't be used as fuel. If you don't want to have a billion stacks of that, I believe your best option would be using another kind...

    This totally just happened: TiC Bees (Manahmana bees!)

    They're pretty easy to breed, too, but then again those metals aren't used for much else other than maintaining your tools, unlike every other metal in the game. I guess they're balanced enough.

    OP Items

    Well I guess that's why they're full of monsters spawners and their spawning rates are enormous

    If and when 1.6 FTB comes out....

    Why get excited for mods in 1.6 anyway? So far, there isn't any amazing addition to current mods or any interesting new mod for it, so it's basically a broken 1.5 with horses and colored blocks. And no MultiMC support yet. Oh god no

    OP Items

    But that's just saving time while branch mining, at the cost of the time and materials spent to make the laser and at least the second tier of batpack (I forgot what it was called) and that random chance to destroy blocks the laser has, for whatever reason. If that can really be considered OP, I...

    "Specialty" bee products

    Is it correct to assume that all bee products classified as specialties require certain conditions to be met in order to be produced? If so, how can I find out about them? Neither the database nor the Beealyzer seem to say anything about them, other than the fact that they exist.

    OP Items

    They also don't seem to have the fatigue debuff, so they're better (for DPS, without the potion trick at least) than cleavers unless you want heads. Also, it says their damage is average. [edit] oh wait, the luck upgrade doesn't work as looting for them. I hope that's a bug.

    How many people actually use twilight forest's magic trees

    Miner trees are absolutely amazing, especially if you place them on top of a large hollow hill. Just remember to replace the dirt once you mine the ores that came up, so it can pull more things out. Speaking of large hollow hills, if you want to do things in a slightly less cheesy way, get a...

    MJ to EU alternative

    I believe AE added some kind of power converter, but I'm unsure if it works outside of AE networks. Probably not, but it might be worth trying.

    A Whole New World

    Aaaand Isabella II is still the best. Bigger resolutions can't change my mind yet.

    Other Dimensional Ore Generation in Overworld

    It's Magic Bees. You can find infernal bees in the middle of the glowstone and oblivion bees covered by end stone. And that's about it. Saves a few trips to the nether or the end, I guess.

    Question About Natura and BOP

    They're hardcoded to only spawn in meadows and another biome, I think. Maybe plains. Once you get to those biomes, however, prepare to see redwood trees everywhere.

    Quarry Needs Flavor, Show Me Your Ideas.

    This. It got considerably more complex in recent versions, too, so you "BUT THE BALANCE!" folks don't need to worry that much.

    Unleashed or Ultimate ?

    Unleashed for all the updates and new things, Ultimate if you really can't get over Eloraam's death.

    Block Identifier?

    Why not? It's pretty useful and it would surely reduce the amount of "which mod is this block from" posts by a percentage.
