    Beginner's Guide to Blood Magic

    it's not all that bad once you get the feathered knife and regen rituals up and running, it can just be a little slow when doing big ticket items. and of course you have to recharge every once in a while instead of being able to use stuff out in the field with wild abandon

    Can't forestry treefarms be set to collect rubber" not exactly as cheap as turtles but what is? Also: MFR rubber trees can be easily automated and thier cooked rubber is used the same as IC2 rubber as far as I know

    Beginner's Guide to Blood Magic

    All altars contain the same ammount of LP, it's the orbs that progress. As @MoosyDoosy said, the runes of augmented capacity can change that but I have only really found it necessary when manually sacrificing mobs and not having enough mobs spawn while filling things like the armor sockets or...

    what are you using as a grinder, the MFR one shouldn't have much problem. But yes they do heal themselves which makes them very useful in some mods.

    Which mods do you add manually?

    Ok, a bit off topic, but what does the Foundation for Neo-cognitive and Ontological Research and Development have to do with anything? On topic: I play DW20 and generally add Mekanism, Dartcraft, Pam's harvestcraft, hunger overhaul, rotarycraft (which I swear I will get around to one day)...

    as far as I know you just enchant it like you would other armor, I don't think the infusing is in yet. Unless it has changed the lamp should work or at least not screw anything up. The lamp is not applying a bonemeal effect, it is adding extra 'growth ticks' to the plants.

    It has no world gen so you should be fine.

    Missing Heavily-guarded Villagers

    Your villagers could have also managed to push their comrades through the walls of they were 1 block thick like penned animals do on occasion. I have also had villagers get stuck and suffocate in walls and doorways when trapped in normal houses.

    Agriculture Plants

    wow, I wonder when this changed because the last time I played with MF2 I was able to gather the spices and had a small amount in my farm happily churning out cinnamon and vanilla. Mind you it was a while ago when you were also able to make the various fruit sapplings from Pam's harvestcraft so...

    as far as I know the 'dire consequences' are there for flavor. the most negative things I know of are occasionally burning extra materials/not producing a product when crafting something(like in the refiner) and generating burnout/whatever that causes the machines to draw more mana. I don't...

    Not a universal list as some things could be moved around but: 1:tin gold iron 2:copper silver lead ferrous should be handled via Thermal expansion basically don't mix tin and copper or gold and silver and everything should be good

    1)you can test this by placing an item/crop on top of a stair case, but I am fairly certain that it is 9x9x9, otherwise the tiered mana bean farm wouldn't work. Also not every golem has a default range of 9x9x9 2) Not that I am aware of, if it does affect them (easy to test) then their pathing...

    depends on how much you need. Pulverizing blue wool still gives a chance of lapis last time I looked. you could set up a blue sheep farm for a smallish steady supply.

    Your take on unique ways of generating power (Direwolf20)

    Well it would help to know what pack/mods you have, and what you consider interesting and OP. Most power gen is just piping in solids and or fluids into a block/multiblock. There is a mod that generates RF? when mobs walk over tiles although the name escapes me at the moment, that's probably...

    The cross polination thing happens after it is grown. There is no real 'cycle' with trees like there are with bees you just have to plant the tree, let it grow and wait until the leaves change, then harvest that leaf block that has changed color

    Need Help With Mob Spawner! Please :)

    The auto spawner/ grinder combo is usually a net loss in mob essence. You used to be able to use slimes to make a net positive but I think that has been changed(I never used slimes so I don't know). The 'solution' is to have some other source of essence like a cursed earth spawner or even a...

    Nothing I can think of in monster can change the biome aside from thaumcraft stuff(silverwoods, sinister nodes, taint, and the ethereal bloom). If you are able to change you pack consider witchery, which has the rite of shifting seasons which might do what you want

    Need Help With Mob Spawner! Please :)

    If the cursed earth gets too much light it lights on fire. At least it did I know there was talk of only having that happen when exposed to sunlight but I don't know if that version is out/in the packs yet. So keep it dark and be warned, it spreads to other dirt blocks like grass does (only it...

    Need Help With Mob Spawner! Please :)

    ya, the grinder gives MFR mob essence which can be drunk to gain levels or used directly in an auto enchanter or anvil. The mobs blowing up is probably Ars Magica shenanigans (the light mages like to pick fights) You should be able to negate the explosions by putting water in your killing...

    Need Help With Mob Spawner! Please :)

    Nope, there are no fake players that activate spawners that I know of. You can either make a cursed earth spawner (cursed earth from Extra utilities) which doesn't need a player close by. Or if you are feeling adventurous you could install something like soul shards reborn which is basically...
