How do you build your bases?

[Darkling54]

I have been on a skybase kick for a little while now. I generally build interconnected hexagon platforms up at whatever height feels right. The hexes generally get their own purpose like machines, gardens, bees, etc. As for where I build, I generally try to stay around spawn for the free semi chunkloading and ease of access, although I think next world will be desert based. My favorite vanilla builds have been in deserts and the TC4 silverwood biome changing mechanic thingimabob will allow me to build an actual oasis.

I did something similar in unleashed, decided that building it was painful(splat) then moved underwater. It was worse. I know generally build on flat land.

Underwater in unleashed is infinitely easier if you have Modular Powersuits and it's underwater breathing option. It takes power, but a Redstone Energy Cell lasts for a very long time if all it's doing is powering your breathing.

I believe Ars Magica also has a waterbreathing spell

I don't know but I know there's a rare drop from it's water guardian which gives water breathing.

You need more options on your poll
I like to build modular with teleport from my sky to nether to ground to underground to End to insert dimension base. Then put what fits with the theme of the place there

I wish I could, but if you weren't aware, you may only have a limited amount of possible answer selections, so kindly, I added the "Other" selection in the likely case you favour an other mob.

IC2 Quantum helmet does the same and can be enchanted with Respiration to reduce power consumed to nearly nothing.

Quantum can be enchanted again...

Not in the enchantment table, but works perfectly fine with enchanted books in anvil. Same goes for all the IC2 tools

That is why I said "again", that issue vanished in 1.5, now it is back in 1.6...

Not entirely sure which version we are talking about now(Whats meant with "issue vanished"??), but I have been able to enchant quantum just fine in 1.4 and 1.5, and it was afterall Unleashed that was being talked about. I have not yet tried it on 1.6.

Huh, I am pretty sure that was fixed after 1.5 first builds, what version Unleashed got?
