    Dartcraft force shears and probably TE3 autonomous activators

    What's the best way to produce mass amounts of Redstone Flux?

    However, MFR generators accepting any liquid is a bug, and if you want to cheat, BioFuel generators will do more with the same amount of water.

    Best Melee Weapon (Damage) in Monster

    If only it were that simple. Servers often don't list everything they disable so your time is already wasted by the time you can make an informed decision not to play there.

    Just tried it again outside of creative mode and found it it kills you. Yeah, definitely seems like this only exists to waste your time. :(

    I know; I tried having 5 of those, 4-5 ultimate universal cables or whatever from Mekanism, 4-5 of the best Ender IO cable, 5 Resonant energy cells attached directly, etc. The internal storage of the generator still filled up almost immediately.

    Is there any way to actually get the >40000 RF/t out of the extra utilities Nether Star Generator? It seems like no matter what I attach to it, the generator itself is only allowed to put out a tiny fraction of that... Is the >40000 RF/t reading just there to troll you?

    No, it flows like most liquids do.

    Blazing Pyrotheum (I haven't tested this)->Air->Water->Gelid Cryotheum->Resonant Ender More heat -> Less heat You can also use metal blocks but I haven't tried them, apparently the rarer they are the better.

    You can't have it flow from top to bottom because the source blocks are affected by gravity (if it doesn't have another source block to rest on, it will fall down leaving the other spaces as air). With liquids that can be placed at the top and stay there while creating flowing blocks beneath...

    Cryotheum source blocks actually fall, so you will need to fill it. Liquid ender is better anyway at least in the version I have (I think they plan on buffing Cryotheum though). You can also get Blizz powder by transposing destabilized redstone into snowballs.

    I did eventually finish breaking that pickaxe. It ended up being around 4.5 from stonebound. I'm pretty sure it's better on hammers, especially because you can have paper and thaumium and still have room for ardite somewhere. I made another pickaxe with 2 ardite pieces and it's getting 7.23...

    In case anyone's interested, I came up with a simple device to solve this problem (how to easily damage TiC tools to max out Stonebound/Jagged). Throw your tool in the Autonomous Activator and enough junk in the block placer (add hoppers for more space if needed) to almost completely break it...

    Unless it also scales oddly with the base mining speed on the tool, stonebound bonus is based on actual durability used. Wooden head, ardite binding, wood rod, 1/59 durability = 0.66 stonebound bonus. Tartarite head (ExtraTiC), ardite binding, wood rod, 2881/3000 durability = 1.12 stonebound...

    Here's AM2's quarry: Projectile (I guess this is optional if you don't mind starting it at your feet) Zone Duration x3 (3 is overkill, it digs 179 layers in its lifetime) Gravity x3 (1 might suffice, not sure if stacking it is necessary for the zone to always dig a layer every time it ticks)...

    Your favorite way of mining manually

    Cool. I didn't look at that mod when I was going through the list because there weren't any wiki links or anything in the forum post, and I usually don't watch videos unless something else gets me interested in the mod, but this looks a lot cheaper than what I suggested. :)

    Your favorite way of mining manually

    No, it's not, but the Player Interface block from RandomThings has potential. It shares inventory with the player so you can have cobble, ores, etc pulled out automatically with no need to manually put it in an ender pouch or something. It is expensive though and will need to be chunkloaded...

    Most ridiculous power supply

    Does anyone know which of these is correct? 1) When a bee has a chance to plant a flower, it will try every spot in its territory and always plant a flower if there's even one spot where it can be planted. 2) When a bee has a chance to plant a flower, it will try one spot and if the spot is...

    There's no need. With the "nocturnal" trait even those few bees that normally work only at night will work during the day too. Source: http://wiki.feed-the-beast.com/IsNocturnal

    Most ridiculous power supply

    According to http://wiki.feed-the-beast.com/Pollination, "gui.maximum" pollination bees have a 99% chance to plant a new flower. I assume that's per bee tick (27.5 (?) seconds). But since Aura Bees are kind of "end gamey" you'd probably only have a 25% chance (from Industrious bees) at best (I...
