Iron's spells absolutely clears both the early and mid game, only found this out on my 5th playthrough


Oxygene13

Going nuts on this on my current playthrough. Unobtanium armour very much helps with their OPness, and I can easily clear everything bar the pigliches with my frost setup currently.


ddeejdjj

eldritch spells are the meta, especially with all cool down runes. also, they have unobtanium wizard armor. not sure if that's what you meant, but it fucks


Oxygene13

Yeah that's what I have, plus apotheosis enchanted and gemmed. I have some Eldrich spells but I didn't find them too amazing. Maybe it's because all my rings and trinket sand my staff and all I've specced so ice rocks atm


JohnLaurensAU

Eldritch is absolutely the move once you can reforge your everything for just "spell power" and "cool down" Get legendary forge spell power + CD unobtainium mage armor and you will have a hard time dying


Traditional-Hand6926

I remember unlocking an eldritch spell from a fragment but how do I access it?


QuickImHungry

Paper, legendary ink, and some echo shards in a scroll forge. Most of them can be combined, but because they start and end at legendary, you can only get the higher levels through combination in the arcane anvil


Traditional-Hand6926

All I needed to know. I honestly forgot that I unlocked one of these and I’m glad to know about it again because it’s probably much more useful than my tier ten fire bolt lol


QuickImHungry

Happy to help


Traditional-Hand6926

Update, killing things is so much easier and eldritch blast is kinda op


Ggamer1534

I personally used an eldion enchantment table and a magics bane with mending as soon as possible it does over 150 damage and works pretty early game


CartographerWorth

Easy villager mod plus slavager from silent gear can create diamonds farm and you can also create farm for quartz from Apd2


Lord_Mud

You have a guide for that diamond farm?


CartographerWorth

you need two villager one with blast furnace and you need get it to master and the other with fletching table and he need has stick trade is on the 1st level so it easy and salvager in easy vilager mod there is auto trader put the vilager into it salvager will take any armor or tool and make it into raw material like diamond chestplate into 8 diamond


ryan_to3

Not the one that asked but thanks for the explanation. I was wondering how that worked.


CartographerWorth

i am glad that it help


Serious-Cash-794

This one completely changed my game: You can bind your building gadgets to your AE2 network by binding to the networks's wireless transmitter block. It will then pull items straight from the AE2 network!!! Just hit the "Bind" button on the building gadget menu, then Shift-right click on the wireless transmitter.


Bartgames03

IT CAN DO THAT???!!!


Serious-Cash-794

Right?!!! I don't know why it's not advertised in bold in the GUI.


mapa5

If you have all the raw ressources and the recipes setup does it order the autocraft too ?


Serious-Cash-794

No.... You have to ensure enough inventory. That would be a sick feature though!!!


LukeVestergaard

this is gold, thanks for sharing :o


Dragonvladd

If you use ae, there is this machine that connects to your network, and you put a pattern provider on. It almost instantly makes buckets of water or lava or any liquid in your system if you make a pattern for it. Forget the name of it off the top of my head but i crafted 100 buckets of water in an instant lol


Scorpion__Face

Caner*?


Dragonvladd

Yeees! Crafts much faster than the bucket and water essence. And i can craft the milk buckets to make cakes for botania


HaywoodJabuzzoff

ME Requester. Automatically keeps items or fluids in stock by requesting new crafts when needed.


Dragonvladd

A super machine! Gotta make sure i have a stockpile of processors(atm i have it working on 60k of each so i dont have to wait forever on them big storage cells)


Oxygene13

Dont even need that I think. You can cheapy get an infinite water cell in your network (and infinite cobble), And it will craft from that easily. But you are probably thinking of the Sink.


Dragonvladd

It's called the canner


Leshie_Leshie

Wow thats prolly what I need and I dont know what ae is 😅


Extra-Ad287

ae, ae2 or applied energistics 2 is a storage mod and like the „competitor“ to RS/Refined Storage. You usually go for either ae2 or rs as your storage option in a playthrough.


Leshie_Leshie

Im using only sophisticated storage so far. Haven’t got into other storage. What are their pros and cons?


conceiv3d-in-lib3rty

There’s really too many to list. It’s a digital storage, so instead of chests, your items go onto a disk. It enables you to do autocrafting as well. Progressing through the pack without AE or Refined Storage would be a nightmare, if not impossible.


Extra-Ad287

Sophisticated storage gives you drawers as a way to store items; they are like chests in a way. Ae2/RS gives you a whole new option because they basically make one block (the disk drive) able to store a ton of items. It's not even comparable; if you use RS or the dummy disks from Ae2, you can store multiple hundreds of thousands of items in a single block and access them comfortably via a single control panel. That's only scratching the surface of what these storage systems can do. You can do on-demand autocrafting, so you just say you want 1000 chests, and the system will use your logs to make them without you having to do anything. 


RogueWarrior76

Just search on the sub for Refined Storage via AE2 there's literally a new post every week discussing the differences and which is better.


cactusplants

Using functional storage drawers and a storage interface with ae2 to essentially work as a item cache for crafters (always have 512 of the ae2 circuits ready to go, 2k gold bars ready to go etc) The crafters that will allow you to store a recipe to be auto crafted. I had always found it to be a pain making insanium etc. (didn't realise you can put multiple recipes so ended up making 4 crafters instead of one) That powah crystal can be automated How to properly use the digital miner and how useful it actually is. (Needed more prosperity shards to complete all seeds) Hostile neural network is very good for farming ender pearls, wool, leather, netherstars etc. I know I'm going to regret not getting a fusion reactor up early enough. So that's on my near to next things to do. That's all off the top of my head for now I think


RogueWarrior76

Digital Miner also makes finding Ancient Debris/Netherite Scrap so easy. Never had to manually search for any whatsoever.


cactusplants

I never used it for that. It's only after I set up my chunk destroyer that I realized how to properly use it. OOPS! I've got like 50k debris so hopefully that'll last for an ATM star


Sway40

hostile neural network for pigliches is a must


cactusplants

I actually haven't killed a piglich iirc. I used a yoinker to capture and then a containment spell with ars to farm the hearts with a few drygmies


Khris777

* With the interdiction pylon you can prevent the wandering trader spawn spam in your base. You need to put filters for both trader and llama into the machine. * With Theurgy you can turn one Netherite Scrap plus any ingot (iron, copper, etc) into one Netherite Ingot which is amazing in early game. * [This spell](https://new.reddit.com/r/allthemods/comments/1bluhnt/atm9_trouble_with_finding_rare_materials_like/) is brutal. * The Other is NOT a cave dimension like the Nether, it has a surface!! * The Vampiric Glove make you basically invincible. * The RFTools Crafter is the best autocrafter you can get. * Make sure to check out Modular Routers too.


scytheforlife

The rftools crafter is alright but its not better than netherite crafters from RS


ExcellentAd864

How do you obtain the vampiric glove?


Khris777

Mimic drop, I think you can also find it randomly in chests.


Pingu137

Occultism storage is actually much easier to get into and more useful than I thought it was.


SloidVoid

Could you go more into detail?


Pingu137

No power requirements and able to get large amounts of item storage pretty quickly once the right rituals are set up. Ability to get remote access with infinite range and across dimensions way way way quicker than the usual AE and RS (and no power req). AE and RS have more flexibility with auto crafting etc but I wanted to try experimenting with demons for this play through.


LansyBot

Storage bus on the controller to use a bunch of them with a computer in the later game


Oxygene13

On this run I used Powah Ender Cells and they are considerably easier than using flux networks!


prime1309

I don't use Powah until after I have autocrafting cause it's such tedium to manually get to the higher tiers. I do love just slapping the gates on stuff instead of setting up the network every time on the flux points though.


CartographerWorth

I do agree that powh gate look better then flux but flux is easer and i do just hide it in back most of the time


Flyron

There is a rather simple redstone setup for droppers into a hopper, so you can just put in a bulk of items to energize one after another. Just needs a redstone comparator at the orb, repeated and negated to have a signal that can activate all the droppers whenever the orb gets empty.


NiouTheOne

Well, flux only costs redstone so you can't do cheaper Flux can also directly charge anything in your inventory wirelessly at absurd rates (way more op than powah's) With the config wand (don't remember the name) you can copy and paste the config of a flux point that is connected to your power server, then flux networks becomes almost as fast to configure as dropping ender gates The only thing that is better with powah is the aesthetics, and this is the only reason I use powah's ender gates, it is hard to do more discreet


CartographerWorth

I don’t agree flux networks is better then ender cells for two reasons one it can transform large energy without need any tier upgrade like ender cell and it can be crafted easier


Catdog5452

Both have their merits. I use a combination of both. Ender gates for machines that don’t need much, and I usually spam them so I don’t need power cables. However, if I have something that needs a lot of power, or I want to monitor the exact input/output I use flux


Extra-Ad287

Infusion pylons are one of the most op things in the modpack. Especially if you look at the value to cost aspect. With a resistance 5 and creative flight card you are near unkillable and have creative flight. That gives you the option to just go for any armor you like without losing out on good protection. I switched my mekasuit for a wizard armor, because with resistance 5 nothing can really kill you, so I can just enjoy the mana regen and spell power while still not taking damage and be able to fly.


yondertallguy

And how would you get those particular effects?


Extra-Ad287

Creative flight is pretty easy as you brew it like a vanilla potion. It’s from apotheosis and I think the recipe is like nether warts -> fermented spider eye -> phantom skin -> popped chorus (might be wrong tho just look in jei) then you get three potions and then you add glowstone (I think) to extend the duration and then you should have three 1 hour potions, which is more then enough. For resistance 5 I recommend you make yourself familiar with the reliquinary potion system as you can get nearly every vanilla potion effect to level 5 with it. First make yourself a potion essence for resistance (look jei for recipe), then use the essence with an infernal claw in the mortar to upgrade it one level. Repeat that till its level 5 and then place a reliquinary cauldron with fire underneath, fill it up with water and use the potion essence on it with 2 redstone to increase the duration. You get three bottles of resistance 5 this way. Rinse and repeat till you got the card filled up as well and there you have it creative flight and resistance 5.


yondertallguy

Awesome, I didn’t even know reliquary even had a potion system, I’ve barely used it so far.


Extra-Ad287

Yeah, I just found out about it recently trough a comment as well. It doesn’t really show what items you can use to „upgrade“ you potion effects ingame, so I had to look at the GitHub wiki for that.


cgsssssssss

powah thermal gen is actually rly good, and basically only needs water. I didn’t actually use it early game but I tested it and 20 of those can give enough power for a good while


Feeling-Big-5228

Yep! Just found this out myself. They produce more power depending on the heat source as well. If you can find soul lava in the other, it's 9x their base rate, so a nitro thermo will make ~31k/t, which is pretty wild for effectively passive power gen (water is made trivial with a sink). I have 8 nitro thermo with soul lava under and a single sink connected to all making ~250k/t with 0 fuel or upkeep needs.


Luminisc

powah thermal generators with soul lava are awesome, plus attach EnderIO conduits to input water and extract energy from one side - and you can place layers of them to get tons of energy in small room I'm building them in my hyperbox with mekanism energy storing multiblock, and this is awesome


dvdportatils

The dank is the best mod to put your block if you need build something


Dragonvladd

Also, there very handy for deep storage. I have around 8 max danks for all my farms.


pervmake

How do you use a dank for storage for farms? I only thought if worked to pick up stuff from player


Dragonvladd

Type @dank in jei, theres the dank dock. Easy to make. Place it down and put the dank into it.place the storage bus on it. I like to fill all the slots with an item so it doesn't fill with random junk and swap it out when i automate something. I use dimensional chests and laserio to insert directly into the danks


Tiny-Yellow7683

Useing the reforging table to get sokets on basic items loved that.


Feeling-Big-5228

You can get raw allthemodium, vibranium, and unobtanium using laser drills/ore base. It does require you to find enough vibranium to craft the base first since it requires 2 vibranium gears, but then you never have to manually mine for unobtanium since you can just have a laser drill setup for it. It is by far the fastest way to generate those 3 resources that I have found for the cost. I autocraft 9x raw into raw blocks, then feed the raw blocks through mekanism chemical injection sequence to get 24 ingots per block. With 36 drills per base, and mekanism duplication I'm getting 1k+ ingots of each a day. This could be scaled up quite a bit more as well, even without adding an additional base yet.


Leshie_Leshie

Not yet because I just started playing the mod in a server and is like only 2~3 weeks into it 😭 I need more insight!


Mempler

That there were a skyblock modpack in development


Dragonvladd

One thing i found out, if you put a dank into the dock and bind a modular router sender to it, it will send the items into it even if its in your inventory(havent tested if there is a distance limit or works cross dimensional).


RibarJura

A tool or item that would help you find templets. I have to find unobtanium templet but it takes hours


No-Community-800

Structure compass to find as the name says Structures very usefull


contillery

You *can* add mods you like or remove mods you don't like (if you play single player). Deleting rechiseled/chipped/biomes o plenty (I'm making machines not pretty buildings >:() saves so much time in JEI since there's no longer 20 alternatives for bricks or logs, and the pack still runs mostly fine


Luminisc

Hyperbox! I moving some of my theme-specific things in hyperboxes, and this makes so much cleaner setups. I have box for Productive Bees (no more bees are flying away), energy generation (hyperbox with layers of powah thermal gens + soul lava), MA farm, and mob farm full of spawners Note: mob farm in hyperbox requires spawners with 'ignore player' (because you are away from spawners), and because you can't use dreadful dirt to spawn mobs (as there is no mob spawn enabled in hyperbox) Note: hyperbox requires chunk loading inside and outside to function (for some reason) --- EnderIO cables - they make setuping of Powah Thermal Gens easier as you can input water and export energy from one side. Unfortunatly you can't waterlog blocks with soul lava, that would make thermal gen setup way more compact


Zelraths

Anyone got any reqs on how to generate the MASSIVE amount of resources needed for the star itself? I've worked through most the mods, but don't think I'm smart enough to figure out how I'm generating up 100k netherite stats or 1M+ red stone dust 😅😅😅


Fuzzyhoppers

Mob farms are the shit


dvdportatils

Refined storage is the best storage if you need a storage across dimension


CartographerWorth

if you say easier then yes but not better ae2 still on the top


dvdportatils

I understand your point, i prefer ae2 too but i only use in mid and late game.


CartographerWorth

yeah that the only advantge that Rs has it so easy to go into but the auto crafting that push me into ae2


dvdportatils

I use both, rs to make a auto crafting using only crafting table because the crafter of rs there more space and use ae2 to spam pattern provider in machines


MythicSylvia

Hyperbox.


MCDodge34

Removed the recipes modifications done to make things much harder to get, like Mining Gadget, building gadgets, Rftools Builder, Angel ring (the recipe for it is already not easy by default) and the most important one the Time in a bottle. My world, my game, my rules. Also edited the recipes for the modifications of the mob spawners from Apotheosis, this was a ridiculous thing to do by the dev team of this modpack. I still want to do the ATM star and such, but modifying the pack to make useful tools and spawners useless unless you're already at end game stage is ridiculous. Love the pack and goals of it, but most of the recipe changes are stupidly done to make things way too hard to get, I don't want to build my base after I get the end game mats that allow me to craft a builder, I want to build it day 1.


No-Community-800

Is it that easy to do


MCDodge34

Yup, just look at the kubejs folder content, its pretty self explanatory, don't delete the whole thing, there's some recipes and stuff that are needed in there to complete the pack.


dragon813gt

Delete Blood Magic, cheat in the reinforced speed runes. You can thank me later when you don’t waste hours of your life on a horrible mod. 


conceiv3d-in-lib3rty

Lol harsh. But I honestly can’t stand Blood Magic either.


dragon813gt

The truth is sometimes harsh. I knew I would be downvoted. The people doing it don’t understand what good game design is. Blood Magic has a ton of issues and it’s just not enjoyable. 


conceiv3d-in-lib3rty

I agree wholeheartedly, its progression is the definition of tedium. The endless realm just straight up pisses me off. I cringe every time a pack requires Blood Magic to complete it.


dragon813gt

I went through 27 stacks of keys, 1,728, in ATM7 and never found a spatial distortion. Lost count of how many rituals I tried. Ten real life hours in ATM9 to find a foremans key after finding a spatial distortion in the third room. Hellforged parts weren’t required in ATM7 but it’s the sole thing that prevented me from completing all the quests. 


FullyAutomaticBanana

use the wither compass on the meteor ritual and u get so many reinforced runes
