I assume it's starting from the lower left node? You can't branch off in two different directions. You need to make one continuous chain that links all the nodes together. You have more than enough runes on that page to do it, so just loop it around from the top left to the right side and you...

You can only take out 8 essentia at a time with a phial. Try cooking things in multiples of 8 to make removal easy, or just use essentia piping.

It'll be interesting to see how useful books are with the new system.

Yeah, not going to argue with you on the research grind. But for someone who appreciates Thaumcrafty aesthetics and isn't a huge fan of mob farming and tanks of anything, much less liquid XP, it's absolutely perfect. :D

I believe the pech will trade you for a silverwood sapling, if you're desperate for one.

Custom enchantments. Yes, you can have that Sharpness V Repair II Looting III Vampiric II sword you've always dreamed of, and without grinding an infinity of books at the enchantment table. And those Protection IV Haste III Repair II boots. And that Power V Infinity I Flame I Quick Draw II...

Azanor did a great job designing the mod. Amazing stuff, once you've got your silverwood wand, golem servants, and bank of captive nodes. It just has hands down the worst new user experience I think I've ever seen in a mod before. It's a mod that is ostensibly about discovery and progression...

This hits it pretty much on the head. There's a ton of amazing stuff in Thaumcraft 4, but unless you know exactly what you're doing it's very, very easy to get stuck and give up on the mod entirely. The problem isn't even the research system - it's all the other things surrounding the rune...

KirinDave is right. TiC is very good at making fast fortune 3 picks, hammers, and lumber axes. Everything else it does, there's a better solution to be had elsewhere. Unless you're after some of its specialty blocks, like brownstone. Nothing quite like automating a smeltery to churn out a...

Thaumcraft 4 has done a lot of things right, and overall is a significant improvement over 3, especially in its crafting and golemancy systems. I love it to death. Seriously, scrambling around trying to balance things out and keep the infusion going while crafting my Osmotic Enchanter and...

Is there a way to hook up a crucible to my essentia jars to help get around the inevitable purple goo that results when I dump a bunch of netherwart and iron into the crucible to make thaumium? Or am I going to have to break down the netherwart in my furnace and use phials to transfer the...

Age: 30 Experience with FTB and/or mods: I played a lot about a year ago back in 1.5, and have fairly extensive experience with TC, IC, BC, TE, and AE. I've fully automated a gravity suit production line with gregtech, and I've done a full ore processing system with golems. I'm a little rusty...

If you're in ultimate, you can throw otherwise useless stuff like green sapphires (pulverized) into your matterfab instead of scrap. With a quarry running, you'll mine more than enough of the stuff to keep up.

Frankly, it doesn't make much sense to send all of your junk to a recycler, when you can just stick an igneous extruder on top of a recycler and call it good. It's faster (and easier to manage) if you just point your overflow buses at an incinerator and rely on the infinite cobble the extruder...

Put a RP filter between your chest and the electrolyzer, then put the quantities of the items you want to electrolyze in the filter's buffer.

Yes, if for no other reason than they give you extra iridium when you grind up sheldonite.

Ore inputs in the top, adjuncts input from the bottom, liquid inputs from anywhere, and outputs are from the side.

If you're playing on ultimate, you can use the Incinerator from Tubestuff. Craft it with cobblestone in a furnace pattern around a bucket of lava. It's basically a void pipe that works with RP tubes.

Yes, the cluster needs to be adjacent to a frame just like any other block. It's actually quite a bit easier to just move the cluster where you want it and rebuild the totems around it than it is to move the entire assembly at once.

The core can be moved with frames and pistons without breaking it. It's pretty easy to set up an inchworm drive hooked up to frames surrounding the whole assembly to move it 20 blocks or so, then reactivate it.
