    FTB monster Ore distribution

    Awesome chart! But does anybody know, why the FTB folks decided to leave these strange gaps in the ore distribution? Between level 25 and 38 no Tin or Quartz? And should you make your branch mine at level 50, then you won't find any copper? Then move your mines to level 40, but then there is no...

    Agrarian Skies Help?

    Normally you get so many additional lives from the quests, that you don't have to worry too much about dying. By the time you got half of the quests done, you should something like 60 lives available. Not sure if there is a way to completely disable the "hardcore" aspect, but you can tell HQM...

    Agrarian Skys help, venting, and discussion thread

    The only materials from Gravel, where you don't get metric tons of, are Diamonds and Emeralds. I would rather increase the throughput (additional Sieve/Activator) if that turns out to be a problem instead of trying to double ores or *shudder* hammer all materials down to dust.

    Go to the Tinker's Construct page on your character screen. (Same page where you also put the Knapsack.) There are the slots for the heart canisters, each one of those gives you an additional heart.

    Getting redstone in Agrarian Skies?

    A witch spawner, which also gives you glowstone and gunpowder. You can get a witch by throwing a Priest villager into a block with Witch Water. (If you pick the wrong kind of villager, he will turn into a zombie.) ... or use Bees.

    Whats Your Agrarian Skies go-to food?

    Bacon Mushroom Burgers. Hearty large meal and really easy to make. All it needs is wheat and a couple cows and pigs. (Ok, some mushrooms too. Easy to get from Harvestcraft.)

    It will take a lot of xp though. 40 levels I think to duplicate a Fortune III book and make two additional copies.

    PurpleMentat plays HQM Modpacks

    When you did the BigReactor research, did you keep track of the results by any chance? Looks like the 0.2 list at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0An54qOfSiXfJdEcyaHAxWURaZTR2eEpEWEFaU0xydXc#gid=0 is completly outdated. Of special interest would be the results for 7x4x7 or 7x5x7...

    How do you light up your base?

    Torches in the floor, hidden under a FMP cover. And glowstone stripes around the top edge of the walls.

    Yep. :) Or run the ore dusts through the Pulverizer and combine the pulverized iron and nickel in a crafting grid to get pulverized Invar.

    Agrarian Skys help, venting, and discussion thread

    I would even go the other way around. Build a Survivalist Generator or two to power the first Pulverizer and then use the materials to go directly to Crucibles/Magmatic Dynamos. (You'll get plenty of Invar from manually sieving the first gravel and not much else to spend it on.) Then with this...

    Ah, okies. That explains it. Then we should poke @Zerokyuuni , this would be really awesome to have also for the Forestry bees. :)

    Agrarian Skys help, venting, and discussion thread

    According to the description of Ex Aliquo, you get also bees from sieving Infested Leaves. ("It's a known fact that bees love to be around other insects. Sieving a bunch of Infested Leaves may yield some stinging results") Never tried it though. If you get lucky, then you can get a full set of...

    I probably forgot a lot more than that, so many ways to do it if you start to get creative. :) Blood Magic has things that can be used for power generation, bees are missing from the list, is there something in Thaumcraft to generate power? etc.

    Agrarian Skys help, venting, and discussion thread

    There are quite a few options available. Some Examples: - Igneous Extruder -> 16 Crucibles on Netherrack -> 10 Magmatic Dynamos (really good early power source) - MFR Treefarm -> in Sawmill into planks -> Steam Dynamo - MFR Mobfarm/Grinders -> Reactant Dynamos with Mob Essence and Gunpowder -...

    Congrats on 500 subscribers! This number within less than 4 weeks and the (by far) best Agrarian Skies series on YouTube, that's quite an accomplishment. Keep it going! :)

    I "think" I've actually seen this recipe in NEI (bowl with soup in a Fluid Transposer) when I was browsing through some of the quests this morning. Gives a full bucket of soup. ... But then again, I didn't have my morning coffee yet. :)

    Upscaling RF power output

    You get actually 2 Mio RF from a single Ender pearl. (1250 secs= 25000 ticks * 80 RF/tick) A setup from my Agrarian Sky world: 20x10 Cursed Earth spawner with 8 MFR grinders. Mob Essence and gunpowder is used in 3 Reactant Dynamos to power the grinders, everything else goes back into the base...

    Whatever happened to Dartcraft?

    Agree. Assuming you disable the Time upgrade (a very recent addition), then Dartcraft is in line with all the other mods. At the same time it offers so much with machines, autocrafting, all the cool looking building blocks etc. that I really don't understand, why it isn't included in more mod packs.

    Show Your Agrarian Skies world

    I did the usual "Build your islands" approach as well. With a huge farming platform, never wanted to eat bugs and worms again. :) But now it's time to start over with a somewhat different approach. "The Jaded One" saved us to rebuild the world and that is exactly what I'll do ... literally...
