Are there any good ways to get Blaze Rods as a mage?
I'm at the point where I have to start crafting runes of fire and the alchemy catalyst but without a compressor I would have to spawn in dozens of blazes with the ex nihilo method for that
edit:
Since this is also for venting: wtf... I feel like the mage path is just balanced worse. I can't even make a drawer controller, because it requires a chipset.
I have to pay double for a lot of stuff because I can only make plates with the hammer. And if I use the orechid early on this even goes up to 4x because the smeltery doesn't double ores - even though it doubles the sifted ores just fine.
Speaking of sifting: The mana sieve doesn't have a compressed version and the orechid doesn't give electrotine, but all the useless project red ores.
Ok, thats all, I feel a bit better now. Time to spawn some blazes
