Well if you're using the Mindcrack pack and hence have gregtech, why bother making them into tools and not just make the drill and chainsaw? They never break, you just have to recharge them. As for the armor, I'm not too certain myself, but really there are better and easier armors to get...

For magic don't forget that blaze rods give it, so if you're at the point in the game where you can easily farm rods you can relatively easily get both fire and magic. Netherwart is also a fairly decent source of ignis.

They should be waiting on at least Mystcraft as, really, it has quite a few crashing bugs. One of the problems with my previous game was, for starters, every single age having horrible instability (like lightning, combustion, random explosions, and something else at the same time consistently)...

And the configs won't be a problem once the Ultimate pack comes out as there will be a way to swap between different config modes. At this point it almost seems you have a personal vendetta against the mod and its maker, so can we please drop the highschool drama? You can easily make your...

To be fair this list is very out of date and there's a much more comprehensive list on the (I believe) unofficial wiki here: http://feed-the-beast.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_Aspects Having said that, wouldn't it also be possible to create a program in computer craft so you can type in the name of...

Also if you're lucky enough to have a village with a blacksmith in it you can do some trades. Of course you could also just make the items instead, but emeralds aren't hard to get when you have a nice set of vaillagers, such as those that take wheat, wool, and raw beef. I managed to get a...

Yup, though I would have to disagree with giving marble the "wealth" aspect, at least in its raw form. It's really far too common for that, and even with smooth sandstone you have to process the sand/sandstone to get the aspect. Basalt for the fire aspect though probably wouldn't be too bad, but...

Oh I wasn't trying to be sarcastic, that's just the way I am sometimes. The other people described what they were thinking of better with putting blocks between each piece. The way you said it made it sound like stacking the tnt on top of each other, kinda like thermopiles. But yea, I was...

Well for my new world I kinda got both lucky and unlucky. Very close to my spawn point is a burrow hill, and I'm very close to a desert where a pyramid's node had gone haywire and fused with another node, so there's a fair bit of flux in my starting area. I need to find more silverwood...

Even if it does all go off at the same time though they will all fall into one block, thus negating the whole reason of stacking them into a column to blow open a column. I actually once built a mini-tnt cannon that could propel a cluster of 1-3 tnt past far render distance and above the...

Volcanoes are only partially seed fixed - their generation has a lot to do with your jar files as well as any world gen. If the bonus chest affects volcanoes like it does passive mobs, then it can also affect volcano spawns. Having said that, most people using FTB won't get to see that the...

Have you ever actually tried that? If not, go do it and see what happens. Back? No, I know you didn't try it and just looked down to the next part. What happens is when one thing of tnt goes off it send a lot of the others flying causing quite random damage and carnage - not that very...

For the rp2 pumps you want to make sure that the area you're pumping in is closed off from the bottom as it tends to fill from the bottom up. What this function does is if there's a cave opening connected to where you're pumping the lava it will fill up from the bottom of the cave. As for what...

With the cobble > sand thing you also get gravel, which can be pulverized for flint, so that helps some. The sand can be used to make sandstone, which can be converted into Smooth Sandstone and Chiseled sandstone, which have some pretty useful aspects for Thaumcraft. Also, the sand itself can be...

Yea I derped my math really hard for some reason this time around, last time I dd the calculations I wasn't so bloody far off. When you mentioned the billions of eu cost for GT I realised I made the noob mistake of equating 1 uu to 1 iron dust in my calculations. What I probably did was...

Well as I mentioned I have no experience regarding the iron loops, though from what I can gather you would either want to pump lava from the nether, burn netherrack, or burn cobble to make the obsidian to turn into iron. Anyway, I have more that I wanted to say about this, but I am tired and...

I believe he actually said it would be in the ultimate pack, but disabled by default.

Also, not that noob of a question. It's actually a fairly valid question, especially for someone who has no experience with the things. A real noob question would be "how do I get wood?'

I actually tend to run into stuff like that a lot in my seeds. It can actually be a bit of a problem when there's a ton of lava under your house due to it being that much harder to find some of the materials you might want, such as diamonds, before pumping the area out. Overall they're...

Derp, forgot about that part >< Still, it comes out to about an average gain of about 38.3m eu when you factor in the UUM cost afterward with GT. And yea, I know about the whole smelt in induction smelter, pulverize it into dust, and re-smelt with the rich slag thing, it's just that it's not...
