I haven't played with this item in a few months, but the last time I did, wrenches just rotated the chest. I think he should make sure that it's not locked, because you SHOULD be able to mine it with a wooden pickaxe.

No you didn't do anything wrong, they are just buggy as all hell. Use the automated workbench from BuildCraft instead.

Keep it on the downlow - but a lot of times, I do the same thing ;) I only really get into the complex piping once I start automatically feeding my furnace drops.

This is why I can't live without the automagy mod anymore :)

I'm fairly certain that your essentia system would be faster if you just streamlined it so that you have a single line of essentia buffers chained together and then your warded jars (labeled) hanging off that. It'd certainly be less piping and the aspects travel a certain distance "per tick" -...

That's what I'm saying though... I use whisperweed like it's crack until I get the eldritch epiphany and still never seen more than 1 guardian spawn. I'm kinda impressed.

Holy hell how did u get that much warp? I've never seen more than 1 guardian spawn as a warp event no matter what I did. I've always wanted to try this to see if it works - try killing one with a diablist pitchfork and a blank imprinting pattern in your inventory. I'm curious if the wrath cage...

If you're doing a lot of Thaumcraft infusions, does anyone actually find the Essentia Resevoir useful? I think it clogs up with way too much useless essentia, especially if it's attached directly to an advanced furnace. I prefer to use just a simple chain of essentia buffers and warded jars to...

I found the taint creation effect of that focus to be negligible. I personally haven't seen it create any, so I wonder if that's outmoded information. I also haven't seen it create any aura nodes either (which it's supposed to be able to do), and I really went to town with that focus too -...

For demolishing hills/mountains you should give the Primal wand focus a try. Upgrade it with potency a few times and watch the blocks go flying. :) I tend to use the TiCon tools for pretty much everything else. It's easy because you can make them at say, iron level crusher and lumberjack axe...

I can understand that I guess. I see a lot of people setting up looping systems because they don't know how to set up proper overflow or routing, which of course usually leads to a pipe exploding as the system gets past capacity, which then leads to thousands of entities spewing on the floor...

Why do people dislike BC pipes so much? They're pretty low on lag generation and work exactly how they're labeled on the tin. I actually prefer them to most other pipe network mods because of some of the clever routing you can do with pipe wire and gates. A good example would be automating the...

Yep. My opinion is that the passive flowers got nerfed because it hilighted the problem with the mod - there is nothing to spend large quantities of mana on so there is no reason to invest in any of the mana generating flowers that generate a lot of mana. Thaumcraft has kind of the same problem...

Honestly, other than the gourmallis (sp?) and endoflame, the botania mana generation schemes are such a pain in the ass I don't bother. I'd really rather just feed an endless supply of coal/charcoal to a bunch of floating endoflames than bother trying to automate anything else. Personally I...

Yeah magic mirrors is the way to go. Instant travel from point a to point b. Just make sure to put an energized node with Ordo in it near the DESTINATION mirrors, otherwise they transfer slow. If they have vis, then they are stupid fast. Anyone know if you can slap a hungry maw on a storage...

Deconstruction tables suck because they can't be automated. You need to click on them to get the aspect. Inversely, whisperweed is so good it's practically a cheat. 1-5 aspects every 15 seconds or something and you just have to be in the general area. I set them up around my main crafting area...

I'm talking about a Thaumcraft mechanic. Silverwood's have purposely low sapling rates put in there by Azanor.

Last time I checked the normal forestry grafters didn't work on the silverwood trees, I didn't realize that vazkii added their own grafter.... Edit: So yeah, this totally works with the manasteel grafter. One silverwood tree turned into 42 saplings... heh. To be honest, it's pretty cheaty...

AFAIK there are four ways. - As you noted, Silverwood trees change to magical biome. - Witching Gadgets has a Terraformer. - Witchery has a ritual that changes biomes. - Bloodmagic has a ritual that changes biomes as well. The silverwood option is probably the easiest one to get up and going...

It's not a huge deal. You need to have Mekanism machines to process/build the Academycraft stuff, so if you have osmium seeds at that point it's not like you're skipping progression because you've mined a few academycraft ores. Personally I only build the stuff required to complete the quests...
