    Beginner's Guide to Blood Magic

    It's a little late, but as promised, a quick video on my Altar in my LP series. Shows how I fit my Well of Suffering beneath it and the mob stuff below that. Hope it helps anyone having trouble with Altar design ideas.

    Beginner's Guide to Blood Magic

    I believe you're correct, when socketing them regen master ritual stone ends up right below, so that'd be four down. When in doubt, there's always creative where you can test your builds. I've had to do that with altar design countless times.

    Beginner's Guide to Blood Magic

    I haven't uploaded the videos for BloodMagic yet, I've been recording more than a bit of a queue so I can have lazy days...like...two weeks of backlog XD But I'm LPwTanthis on the tubes if you want to watch my Let's Play.

    Beginner's Guide to Blood Magic

    I /just/ did my T3 in my LP videos, with 28 Self Sac runes I went from 200 lp to 760 lp per finger prick.

    Beginner's Guide to Blood Magic

    That's exactly the advice I just gave in my videos, it's much much easier to start big and fill in than grow out.

    Beginner's Guide to Blood Magic

    If it makes you feel any better, the alchemy portion of the mod is my weakness too. I know enough to get the demon summoning components, but that's it. I'll need to invest some time into it myself.

    Beginner's Guide to Blood Magic

    The ritual of the feathered knife or well of suffering will fit inside the regen ritual. Way made it so they're slotted to fit inside just fine. As for the alter, I build my T5 I believe...two blocks above the master ritual stone of the well of suffering. This ends up putting my altar...

    Beginner's Guide to Blood Magic

    I can confirm the multiple items stacking when piped into the altar. I honestly liked that, feature or bug, because when I was to the point of automation of slates...doing stacks at a time was icing on the cake.

    Beginner's Guide to Blood Magic

    You can use TE Itemducts as well with alters for automatic slates / bucket etc creation. As another idea for any other dabblers, I use it to make stacks of slates at a time.

    Beginner's Guide to Blood Magic

    You can use fluiducts and other liquid transports. But, it moves LP very very very slowly without the fluid speed upgrade runes on your altar. So, it may appear to be broken when it is actually just being slow.

    Beginner's Guide to Blood Magic

    Since the guide is a for beginners, I'd leave out the details of a witch farm. Let them discover the various ways to set this up on their own.

    Looking for base design?

    When in doubt, ugly 9x9's with cobblestone aka, Direwolf houses. Later on, switch to nice stone and decorations. Build a moat...few towers....

    Beginner's Guide to Blood Magic

    I have had to repair my 'room' a couple times, gradually replacing stone with obsidian. But, I've only dabbled in Ars Magica for a couple utility spells.

    Beginner's Guide to Blood Magic

    I /think/ the autonomous activator from TE3 registers as a fake player, QuarryPlus will as well I believe and act as a chunkloader at the same time. Another idea....small room with cursed earth...free mob spawner :)

    Beginner's Guide to Blood Magic

    Haven't seen MPS yet, but, no one on my server has gotten into it juuust yet. A zombie iron-man would definitely make me reconsider some life choices however, I'll keep my eyes out for it. Hoff already explained this, It's Factorization that's doing it...

    Beginner's Guide to Blood Magic

    Nope, Not using it. Running straight Monster modpack. And I was pleasantly surprised, free filled sockets and goodies. Does Rogue Like Dungeons modify gear on mobs? Edit: Thinking about it, I'll check when I get home but I think that the armor with filled slots that I looted from those mobs...

    Beginner's Guide to Blood Magic

    Yup, I've killed probably half a dozen zombies and skellies in the overworld while they were wearing full blood armor. On top of that, twice they've dropped armor pieces that I then unbound. One was a pair of legs with the air sigil and a master orb, the second was boots with lava this time...
