    Question about modular power suits

    I just thought of something: is quantum still enchantable? If it is, that could be something else (albeit glitchy) in favour of it. Also, does the weight of the power tool actually make any difference? I tried it in & out of my inventory - didn't notice any difference. Finally: Am I the only...

    Are Dragon egg Energy Siphons Worth it?

    Also don't forget you can use a dragon egg (with 8 nether stars) to make the holy planks of sengir, which is a wooden plank enchanted with smite X... the perfect wither-killing weapon!

    Question about modular power suits

    What things exactly? The only way you can die with quantum armour on is if it runs out of charge (or the void). MPS does protect you from the void, but isn't that a glitch anyway? By the way, gravisuit is added by gravisuite not GT.

    Buildcraft fuel to OP ?

    Just thought i'd mention: I recently found a large oil well, which contained about 6000 buckets of oil. I turned it all into fuel, and pumped it into a diesel generator for a whopping 384k eu PER BUCKET. Granted, its only at 12 eu/t, meaning it can't be my primary source of power (though I...

    If there had to be only one energy type...

    Well, to be honest I'd like to have them all since it encourages you to experiment with stuff you wouldn't have normally (power converters notwithstanding). If I had to pick 1 though it would be EU; mainly because it has the highest number of different ways of generating it (nuclear ftw!)

    Question about modular power suits

    Woah... never heard of this before. What mod adds this? I guess its only just been added since its not in NEI.

    Question about modular power suits

    To be fair, its on SSP, and the GT recipes seem a bit extortionate, even by GT standards (they're arguably even more expensive than quantum, since they need copious quantities of iridium and chrome, the latter of which can only really be obtained from centrifuging rubies).

    Question about modular power suits

    Well, there's the GregTech recipes, but they forgot to disable the (MUCH cheaper) vanilla recipes ;)

    How do I smelt netherrack into nether brick

    That's added in 1.5. Until then, you can smelt 4 netherrack with 1 soul sand in an induction smelter for 2 nether brick.

    Question about modular power suits

    Ok, I only just decided i'd bother with modular power suits, since in the past i'd just use nano/quantum armour since it was easier, but I thought i'd give power suits a go for a change. I must say, they're incredible! Almost OP for their cost (but STAY WELL AWAY GREGORY). However, I just had...

    How long does it take a silverwood tree to get rid of flux?

    So I recently started a new map (again), and while exploring I happened across a desert temple. I heard that they contained large nodes - sure enough, this one contained 980 vis. So I decided to make it my base, and I went hunting for silverwood trees in an attempt to merge it with another...

    Mods decided to make it impossible to make solar power!!!!

    Yes, I did intend it (mainly) as a joke. Sorry if I offended anyone, I was just trying to make the point that there's a lot of room for innovation when it comes to power generation (or anything in minecraft for that matter). Also; yes, I did intend it as a DDOS reactor (incidentally, i'm...

    Mods decided to make it impossible to make solar power!!!!

    Pffft. Call that a reactor? Noooo, this is a reactor any man can be proud of. 5440eu/t, fully automated (or at least it will be when i've sorted out these fiddly logic gates), what more could you ever need? Admittedly, its a tad expensive in the copper/tin department, but what's the point of...

    Easier ways of killing wither

    This doesn't work anymore, the wither doesn't take drown damage now.

    (very) Minor Question Regarding Bronze Armor In Ultimate Pack

    Ironically, iron (and thus bronze) has better enchantability than diamond... put unbreaking on it and it'll last forever anyway.

    GregTech Fusion reactor - How to rotate it

    With a wrench, same as usual? If not, you can just pick it up + place it in a different orientation.

    Can anyone think of a food setup that beats this?

    Didn't they nerf honeyed slices a while ago? So now they only restore 3 hunger? Thats no better than a baked spud.

    Mods decided to make it impossible to make solar power!!!!

    Actually, I thought it was advanced solars itself that changed the recipe? Besides, solars are horrendously OP as it is; solars making UU matter gives us another version of the energy collector.

    How to generate 512 EU/t

    Actually, although technically not renewable, you can get thorium ridiculously easily by putting coal ore in an industrial grinder. Also, the fact that thorium duo/quad cells only need copper now make them as cheap as chips. By the way, you can only get uranium from bees (which are too much of...

    Can anyone think of a food setup that beats this?

    It just dawned on me that you can use an emperor's chalice as infinite food. Just use it to create an infinite water source, which you can use to refill the chalice as you drink from it. Anyhow, why do things the easy way when you can do it the hard way?
