    Octuple Cobble Gen - Is this the best setup?

    I don't know what the capacity limit of the drawer/transfer node combo actually is but the main bottleneck is the speed of the cobblegen. If you really want to optimise this hop into creative and start testing. You can run up to 5 cobblegen nodes into a single drawer and extract...

    Octuple Cobble Gen - Is this the best setup?

    Technically you want a massive load of actual cobblegens at the bottom and there's no need to have multiple drawers for higher compression levels. You definitely don't need more than a stack upgrade and maybe some speed for the upper transfer nodes, which is a massive cost reduction if "full of...

    Disabling Non-essential Mods

    Removing AOBTD might break some important compatibility mechanics (mainly thinking of using TC purification on mod metals here) Then there's the matter of defining what is "essential", if you're a tech freak you can go without Thaumcraft, Blood Magic or Botania, but if you care about...

    What are some mod combinations that makes your life easier?

    You also have to build the containment out of sandstone or mod blocks and have to ensure the thing keeps running or the fire will go out. See this post for an example setup (not mine). Someone also claimed the fire had infinite spread range through air, so build an outer shell before you light...

    What are some mod combinations that makes your life easier?

    Oh yeah, one extremely convenient one I forgot is being able to teleport Aura Nodes via Blood Magic Teleposers. Costs virtually nothing, moves obsidian boxes along with the hungry node itself and doesn't damage the node in any way (obelisks explode if you port out their node though). Add a...

    That can also go wrong in the most terrifyingly hilarious way if the fire gets out...

    Bold Enderman

    You have to spawn exact copies to get more "champion" mobs from an MFR spawner however, and those take a ton more power and essence. Here's a list of prefixes and corresponding abilities, most of them basically translate to "stay well away or kill ASAP" though. Of some note is the "Undying"...

    What are some mod combinations that makes your life easier?

    ExtraUtils Cursed Earth+MFR mob spawner=synthesise almost any non-boss mob drop virtually for free Above setup+EnderIO=completely nullify ender pearls as a balancing mechanic, no dragon kill needed. Botania+any treefarm=easy free mana that never decays Pam's Harvestcraft+Agricraft+MFR=free food...

    [Guide] What are the most useful TiC Tools for the FTB Infinity Evolved

    [Guide] What are the most useful TiC Tools for the FTB Infinity Evolved

    Last I checked shedding was disabled in the default configs for Infinity Evolved. The "vacation portal" wasn't though...

    Leaving early game fast ?

    Greatly depends on your definition of "lategame", which kind of capabilities do you want to unlock quickly? Because producing 20k iron/second won't help you beat the Gaia Guardian 2.0, nor will a T6 Blood Altar produce RF unless there's an addon for that. You don't have TiCo, so you probably...

    [Guide] What are the most useful TiC Tools for the FTB Infinity Evolved

    Signalum is only relevant for projectile launchers as those use a different stat set. On that second pick you actually want to replace the binding with paper or Magical Wood, regular bindings don't contribute to total durability and Thaumic only gives an extra modifier for the first piece, and...

    [Guide] What are the most useful TiC Tools for the FTB Infinity Evolved

    The curious part is that your design is the absolute best when only considering vanilla+TiCo(+ExtraTiC, else replace Enderium with Cobalt), it is only outclassed by specific mod mechanics or a potential need for silk touch. Durability can still be relevant based on private configs, but my main...

    [Guide] What are the most useful TiC Tools for the FTB Infinity Evolved

    I believe you can get slightly better durability (and less annoying crafting imo) by using a Thaumium tool rod, and save materials by using a paper binding as the stats don't matter. In the end it doesn't matter much if you stick a capacitor on it though, as you can't reach a better tier either...

    Transferring EU across dimensions (ftb infinity)

    How about "Factorio"? :D

    Transferring EU across dimensions (ftb infinity)

    AE2 P2P tunnels can transfer EU (right-click a placed one with an EU cable, then wrench it); then route the P2P through a quantum bridge. For low throughput it's easier and cheaper to teleport RF and stick autoconverting cables (MFR, IE) on either side.

    Why is lead always stalking silver?

    IC2 also had orange copper and there are deposits of pure copper IRL. The main problem is that most ores are varying shades of grey, and as you note oxides and sulfates rarely are the same colour as the pure metal. Especially in large modpacks with tons of fictional substances being able to...

    FTB Infifnity is awesome so far,,,

    There actually is a portable creeper deterrent called the Feline Amulet, sadly it's part of TTkami which happens to be the most ridiculously lategame Thaumcraft addon I know (only plus side: you don't have to do the Outer Lands quest). It also costs you a bauble slot, but by the description it...

    help How can I easily dispose of stuff from mob drops

    You can put a buffer between your farms and the ME system and use something like Steve's Factory Manager to transfer the items over. Other mods have "fuzzy" item filters to ignore damage values, but SFM allows you to set the filter without even having a sample at hand and has nigh unlimited...

    FTB Infifnity is awesome so far,,,

    mobGriefing is there for a reason. The creepers make for a nice challenge with their ability to knock you into lava or blow out the ground under your feet, which in Infinity is a nice counterbalance to the additional nether resources. Sadly they are part of Natura and cannot be disabled through...
