If you have Xeno's andExtraUtils, watering fertelizing lilies increases their tick rate of applying bonemeal to nearby plants.

Not a major op but with Thaumcraft 4 wand focus of excavation or equal trade you can obtain the toughest ore known to man which is cobalt from Tinkers Construct which means it is possible for you to skip alumite tools. You can mold lava into portal with buckets and water and move on prety quickly if you happened to start early on with thaumcarft.

back in 1.5 packs i remembered a bug to mine Bedrock( either using Portalgun or the Vajra to relocate the anti-builds from Twilight forest near bedrock and PLOP bedrock popping and you can pick it up)

Also the Naga, you couldve trap it in Safari Net and spawn it in cleared out maze/labyrynt( the ones surrounded with bedrock on the lower level.)

Actually osmium is the hardest element known to man :)[DOUBLEPOST=1396210595][/DOUBLEPOST]
Plenty of other options popped up after that megaton hammer landed, though. Recently a upgrade in Dartcraft was added that's totally insane, the Time upgrade. It's powerful as all hell(stop time, make it slow, faster, HYPERSPEED), and it can even be applied to force torches.
I have used these torches on magical crops and we'll in hyper seed with a few of them the plant grows in less than a second I have gained 80k Certus essence overnight so yea just a little op

Hence why I shy away from that on Torches. I love it for the idea of making a staircase out of tossed blocks, but it's still too damn good for the cost.
Reducing the range to 2 would suffice in my books.

Time Torches work on other Time Torches and etc... And they work on MACHINES as well as plants and anything else that works based on a tick rate. You can make a quarry go insanely fast with that, or make your ore processing catch up to your ore quarrying... Though the machines will consume energy at an insanely faster rate as well, since it does not change how much they consume, but rather only how fast the machines "tick".

I'll leave you all to your imaginations as to just how much this can be exploited. (HINT: To gamebreaking levels with just about any mod. Yes, really. Though, it is fun to watch entities speed up so much you actually get nauseous from watching them move). Dartcraft is so OP... IMO at least, many here disagree.

This has been patched in the latest version I miss using this on solar panels to bump production by insane rate ):

So, found out that TiC + Metallurgy + ExtraTic = Tartarite flux rapier with max looting, sharpness, life steal = 2 hit kill on any non-boss mob regardless of armor as fast as you can click (i.e. under half a second).

Take epic OP sword + roguelike dungeons = EVERYTHING DIES!!

Unfortunately, I lost it when my grave stone glitched out / was wiped out by the enderdragon after a friend and I decided to gung-ho the fight.

Not a big deal, I'll make another.

I find that with tartarite weapons that the flux is worse than just using moss. The durability is ridiculously high and you won't blow through it on a weapon. The flux addition will run out of charge before you wear out a third of the tartarite weapon.

But it's so easy to make a auto recharge station...

Powering a Big Reactor Turbine with a (HP) Railcraft Steam Boiler
I get about 4000 RF/tick out of one Steam Boiler
Maybe more if the turbine is more effizient build ...

Omg guys, you'll love this one...

Magma dynamo > energy conduits > pneumatic engine > bevel gear > rock melter + igneous extruder > pipe > reservoir > fluiduct > drums > return to magma dynamo

It convert 1 lava bucket into 8 lava buckets per minute per magma dynamo. Apparently you can plug around 8 dynamo on the same system. So you could power about 56 magma dynamo with that setting. With no input...
