Development is a fluctuating endeavour. This means you could run into an issue 10 minutes from release that holds you up for another 5 days.

Since conduits and fluxducts are disabled, what are we supposed to use to conduct large amounts of power. (I do not want to go anywhere near IC2)

Either you are not getting the blatant throbbing sarcasm or you are beeing sarcastic yourself. I can't really tell which,

You don't seem to have an idea how often that happens. The answer is alot. I, too, have been on the recieving end of misdirected outrage several times. Its just a fact of life that people can choose to adress in different ways. Reika has chosen to adress it in this way. Other mod devs might...

No true scotsman fallacy, just saying. FTB Modpacks throughout have had all sorts of issues, world breaking, crucial server breaking, not-giving-even-a-single-shit issues. FTB has been just as guilty of this in the past as the rest of the modding community has. If you want I can give you a...

If you make a modpack, say for a server you're running, you do not have time for that stuff. Most servers with their own modpacks and quite a few modpacks on their own could not give two shits if they completly mutilate or break the balance of a mod in their pack. They also do not give two shits...

At least in monster, I got that as an answer at least twice asking for a reason specific config changes were made. So the FTB team isn't clear of that :D

Its not meant in a disrespectful way though. Most of the times when you add a mod that you have never heard of its because some player keeps bugging you about it. At that point you expend only the effort of figuring out if something in there would break your balance. That seemingly beeing the...

Almost all packs I have played and worked with, and those I have made myself. You simply don't have the time most of the instances to spare any of your 200 mods that you didn't balance your pack around a second glance, much less inpepth testing and configuration. If something looks like its op...

Look, here is a point about how making modpacks work (especially if you are making a kitchen sink type pack): You look at mods and see if you would find them interesting/fitting enough to put them in. Then you do some cursory bug testing. You don't really know the mod or what it does by then...

Im gonna comment on one last thing because the rest of this discussion seems to lead nowhere. If your mod by yourself without any mod interaction features a dupe bug then you have to assume its either massive incompetence / lack of testing or intentional. Both is bad. Obviously this...

There our opinions differ. In my opinion it isn't even anywhere near ready for public release, let alone modpack use.

Im not talking about cheat commands, but ingame ways to do something. You hit it on the head perfectly btw. The mod is in what feels like early alpha and clearly nowhere near ready to be anywhere near a modpack.

If you fail to design your mod in such a way that people can't abuse it, thats mostly your fault. Why should people intrinsically know how you intended a boss to be done, and not kill it in the intuitive and easy way the game provides? You say the bosses are challenging when strategies exist...

Why, if you leave the exploits open?

Yep, you can bug them into halfslabs Can bug him aswell Yep, just make sure to bring an energy weapon {quote] Visualent Just get a decent ranged weapon All of those can be done using nothing but the AoA equip you can get after 2hrs of play

Because you can kill any of the bosses within 2 hours of starting.

My original critique was focused on what the armors do, not what they look like. They are still recolors. (Debatably) pretty recolors, but still recolors. The effects aren't anywhere near exiting enough to merit going beyond just any one of them and they have the same protection.

I don't see why not. Chromaticraft has it.

Kay, let me rephrase that: It doesn't feel cheaply coded, just cheaply made and cheaply designed. The UI lacks tooltips and proper explainations, it lacks coherence and doesn't display everything you want. The whole thing lacks tooltips. If it took effort to code then that effort was wasted...
