    Bagception!

    I think it's more likely that the internet has ruined many of us so that the first thing we think about online is innuendo.

    Defeating the ender dragon

    Ender dragon is a very easy kill, iron + armor and you will be safe if you keep your food up. I'd recommend to get an infinite enchanted bow if your aim isn't very good - otherwise a power bow is the best thing you've going to have short of thaumcraft wands (not sure on their damage and range)...

    Can the intrusiveness of GregTech be reigned in?

    Almost all forms of energy are renewable in minecraft, that's not what Gregtech attempts to change. gregtech attempts to balance different outputs based on the power they give and their complexity. The moment you mention anything which requires complex large and mats consuming methods of...

    Nuclear vs Solar... dafuq?

    @Randomsteve why do you have to have solars when you could just have a quantum generator spawned in for "no hassle building purposes"? If solars are intended to be balanced around their cost, which the vanilla ones appear to be - and we have an alternative for those who want creative survival...

    Compressor + transformer = explosion

    I never realized such a thing would happen :P I never use energy storage as I run parallel MFSU's into things to give them a constant supply of power even with the overclockers in

    Compressor + transformer = explosion

    Well if we try to rule out variables, for the heck of it just put in an LV transformer and see if it still explodes. If it does you'll know it's nothing to do with transformer upgrade, and vice versa. Could you show us an example picture of where you put the MFE (and then test it explodes...

    Make a low tier spawner and your experience issues are set.

    Compressor + transformer = explosion

    I mean your pipes connecting to the autocrafting tables (or whatever they are) appear to be connecting to the engines. Maybe my memory fails me but at least when using redstone engines to pull out they shouldn't do that. If they're just normal logistic pipes I'm stumped too, it just looks like...

    Compressor + transformer = explosion

    Looking at that engine (not familiar with enough with the texturepack) are you sure there isn't just a power buildup from the conductive pipes that is blowing up at next to the compressor?

    Enchantments?

    Vorpal is added by redpower 2 - it is an enchant that has up to 4 levels and gives you a chance to "execute" your target, dealing very high damage and increased chance of dropping a mob head. Disjunction is also added by redpower 2 afaik - it has up to 5 levels, and does increased damage to...

    Gregtech Problem

    The grinder also needs water in the middle I thought, or does that just give it a free charge?

    Am I the only one who likes the gregtech recipes?

    There is always that! I haven't even looked at the tungsten iridium blocks, I heard they're a dark blue which I think put me off it immediately. I like the base iridium reinforced blocks as they have a clean white look while also being so solid.

    Am I the only one who likes the gregtech recipes?

    Yes, but combined with the amount you get and using aluminum ingots with it, how you can you ever use so many mixed metal?

    Am I the only one who likes the gregtech recipes?

    I don't see issues with plutonium and thorium, it's not exactly an endgame material. Tungsten you will be making from before you get a centrifuge with any luck and be unable to smelt it, but is so common in general anyway with little use. The redstone and glowstone recipes are very "meh" as...

    Am I the only one who likes the gregtech recipes?

    If you were to make a plutonium reactor it's one of 2 ways to do it, iirc. That way you don't lose uranium cells either in the creation. It's not so much about staring (which I would compare to making steel or electrolyzer), it's more that if I put say, a stack of platinum in it's going to take...

    Am I the only one who likes the gregtech recipes?

    Most of the remaining centrifuge recipes still take a very long time. Off the top of my head platinum, uranium, most things which make methane, redstone, I think glowstone too? A lot of these take 30mins + My solution is just to have 6 ofthem in a line where 5 are automatically making...

    Mystcraft + Quarry story

    Aaah, no sheldonite in the end either. Make a nether portal. Spotting iridium in the nether is incredibly easy and I think the chunks are smaller. I know in a few trips I found 20-30 iridium that way in beta pack. Make sure to use silk touch! Jetpack recommended.
