Alright, I've decided to try and make a well of suffering next to my dark room which is close to my blood altar to try and create some form of automation (I want to try and create bound armor, or at least one piece so I can have a Sigil of the Green Grove permanently active at all times courtesy of a master blood orb, but I need 4 filled sockets for the armor forge, and I'm assuming those are non-reusable. However, as far as I am aware I only need one piece, so I can simply make bound boots which will require a total of 8 filled sockets. Doesn't change the fact that that's still 240k LP I need to somehow get into my blood altar...)

Well of suffering produces LP from mobs, and damages them while doing so. Witches heal themseleves fast enough (via potions) to not die. Infinite LP

Almost done with the well of suffering. Now all I need to do is gather up the 50k LP needed to activate it. This is going to be painful and is going to take a while...

I added a few runes of augmented capacity, made my altar hold 40k LP, fair few runes of sacrifice and a lot of witches and it will handle an archmages blood orb with no probs, be careful of speed runes, they can drain the altar faster than you want it to.

It did something similiar when I updated to 2.1.2.

All my witch water in Nihilo barrels turned to molten electrum. Odd change.

Trying to get a wintry bee hive. It's in a taiga biome and have gone through around 80 scented hives in various configurations. Hive level with the snow, hive on top of a snow block, hive above a half slab of snow etc. Does anyone have a tips or advice to help me get these accursed hives? Thank you in advance.

The bound armor requires full set for the bonus as far as I know, and believe me, that set is worth the effort. Sigils of air and haste are essentials for it in my opinion, and it's the best armour in this pack by a fair shot.

Really? Well, in that case, let me try to figure out what I need to make it...
I need 24 filled sockets, plus 4 forges, each costing 4 filled sockets. So that's 40 filled sockets I need. Each socket needs 4 weak blood shards, plus I'll need 4 for the armor itself so I can place in sigils. That's...164 weak blood shards. Plus, 30k LP for each socket...30k*40=1.2 million LP...
...
...
...any suggestions on how to make LP generation much more effective? I have, as far as I am aware, 6 runes of sacrifice, so...how much LP does the well of suffering give with those? Also, how do I make witches and get them into my dark room AND keep them from despawning, for I've heard those are perfect for the well of suffering. Not counting the LP needed to power the bound blade to get the weak blood shards (Do they only drop from hostile mobs, or can I just kill a small army of chickens to get them?)

witches are made by dumping priest villagers in witch water(the purple guys). They do despawn, but I just spawn more with an auto spawner(sometimes I want extras to speed stuff up too, like that ritual of gaia lol), although jailers safari nets do prevent them from despawning.

According to the wiki: Each Rune of Sacrifice increases the yield of rituals / weapons that use non-player blood by 10% (additively).

Witch can be made by priest (villager) in witch water (IIRC)

Then jailer safari net or name tags

the forge keeps being useful too, when you get a few demon blood shards the armours can be upgraded further by breaking them back down in a ritual of unbinding and recrafting em.

Place a hive in the center of a 5x5x5 of snow blocks/ice blocks. Allow sky light as necessary.

Are biome gens unique to the world when you load it for the first time in AS? i.e. Does it create a new world which consists of the platform/home, or is it already "created" such that biomes will be the same for everybody.

If this is the case, the flatworld spawns on a tundra.
