If fire destroys it, that might be the case, the field i was fighting it was full of fire from it's projectiles.... i used it to float up to stab it lmao
Scuffeddotcom
Fire does destroy it

I haven’t been on but what’s this new fishing skill tree I see in the announcement?
Hello! Is this the best channel to discuss MCE2? Just found it on CurseForge
Really excited to try this, MCE was one of my favorite packs
#🏮-mce-general is fine
An MCE channel, to discuss MCE2? 🤨
Yeah
I hope MCE2 gets its own, because that's going to be so confusing
It's really not, mce1 isnt being mentioned much.
everyone's playing mce2 and not mce, so everyone's talking about mce2
Was it not possible to make an MCE2 channel? It boggles the mind. It's a different pack. There was zero reason to combine two packs into one discussion.
not wrong, but it is what it is now 
Im new to rats so idk if Im missing something. My rat is fishing but doesnt take the loot to the chest aaaigned with the stick
Am i missing anything? Same with the gardener upgrade
from Ignis?
yes
rip
we will probably push a hotfix within the next few days to fix it
if you're on singleplayer, you can fix it manually
or on server, if you have access to the server's files, you can
my friend runs the server i play on what would he have to do
probably look into the config files for the mod
Got it fixed it was set to .1 not 1
the money we get from quests is curently useless as there is no shop yet?
Correct
Can be used for the fast travel to spawn repeatable quest but yea otherwise SAVE YOUR COINS
Do we have an eta on first iteration of shop yet?
Hope it’s locked behind a quest or maybe even a physical block for immersion lol, like a computer that you one day delivery from a rat plane lol
we don't. it might improve the speed if more people bribe Emper via buying them a coffee though.
How much to fast track it emp, what is your price x.x HOW MUCH COFFEE
it is priceless
but i guess you could give me 5 dollars and complain
i know how much some of you want the goddamn shop
I’m not going to complain who do you take me forrrr
Il wait patiently… just in the corner, over your shoulder, all the time 👀
This is genius
Am I screwed if Ive been picking up the coins lol
no
they are saved
they have been the entire time
all of the framework to make them exist and be accessible by code has been there the whole time
you can see how many you have with /ec checkbalance eternalcurrencies:coins
Oo ok nice, I was worried cuz the coin achievedment showed 0
Ty
the quest wants you to sacrifice them to it
and iirc i programmed it so it doesn't take any and all coins you currently have, unlike FTB Money did
so your coins can't get stuck in quest purgatory
it will only work if you have that much money in your balance
Big brain
Tbh the reason why I need minimap is because I need to stay away from dragons at all time
Since Im basically a starter
I may be wrong, but i think they only start spawning a couple thousand block from spawn, so if you're a starter you're probably somewhat safe for now
there's a 1500 block safety radius for dragon spawns iirc
it's actually 2500
my first dragon was 17k block away 💀
I got geoty mobs attacking my base every 5 secs any tips?
Make some servants and put them on guard repeatedly. As long as you have a certain soul amount they will always assault your base, and the more soul energy you have the stronger the assaults get (this caps out at some point)
so if im working on my base just put my soul energy in my backpack?
Yeah, I think you can even have it in your inventory and not on your hotbars
thanks its stopped
Wait emper does that have unlimited capacity?
whats the best way to find a woodland mansion so i can get this vizier out of the way, is it actually just randomly fly around and hope luck is in your favor
Pretty much. I think there MIGHT be an Ars ritual to locate strcutures
Go to a cartographer villager
They sell woodland mansion maps
Tablets of cupidity if you get super lucky and locates a structure instead of a spawner… tho with the sheer amounts of spawners it’s been hard lol
Also might be misremembering but I’m pretty sure woodland mansions aren’t just in dark forests any more, they have different variants in different biomes so flying around and seeing a footing roof blob on a map of a solid wood color is a telling sign
And what’s a vizier?
goety boss
Ooooo
Also just saw the sneak peak can’t believe we getting a cobble on crossover o.o wonder if we can put dragons into them
I assume since dragons and the trex were banned from the soul vials in the last update this is that solution so you can still carry them with you
But dragons do already have the horns
is there now way to process nether rack? im tryna make mass blaze cakes
I recommend get an infinite lava source (10k blocks with create) and send that to mechanical drying basins to get magma blocks to send those into another mechanical drying basins to get nether rack
Yea I mean dragon crystals work but they have some limitations and more so summoning than holding
So that would be sick for a more consistent one where I don’t need to right click again the fame dragon unless I want to track it down again lol
could you tell me where and what exactly was changed to fix that?
I can ask my friend but I think he just looked for key words like ignis and the demonic eye item
well by what exactly I mean its obvious the .1 was changed to 1 but my server admin is struggling to find where exactly to make that change
do you know if that was as part of the cataclysm or as part of the end remastered mod? Since Ignis is from Cataclysm but the Item is from End Remastered
I think I found it now, for everyone curious to find it and fix it for their server (term for discord search: Demonic Eye Ignis)
in the configurableextramobdrops folder there is a file called mobdropconfig, in that file under Ignis the ID: "endrem:nether_eye" is set to a drop chance of 0.1 when it should be 1.0
Sorry my friend just got back to me
does claiming gen between dimensions?
why wont power go into the task screen?
anybody figured out neutronite yet?
Just noticing that the fire orb of doesn't upgrade the ignis spellbook properly
All the others seem to work just fine
I'd like it if they'd have their spell books would do things in a non questionable manner. I'm trying to become the ultimate Firelord
check if their other spellbooks have the same problem
if they do it's probably cause the modifiers are using the same UUID as the school upgrades, which seems like a big dumb thing
I also noticed that if you try to upgrade the Ignis armor with upgrade orbs already applied to the Elytra Ignis armor it will flat out crash the game sending you back to the menu and cause weird visual errors like transmorg items not showing or functioning properly or certain blocks not showing like the anvil itself and the test dummies
yeah their armor has some rendering issues atm for some reason
it might have something to do with duplicate renders when it comes the fusion anvil
Gotcha
yea they handle stuff really janky
their spellbooks actually seem to be implemented reasonably in the source code
Seems to happen with the others two but only when using an orb of the same type
For context the base number for the spell power increase on their books is 30%
there's no overlapping UUIDs in reality
so it could be something else, like irons' softcap system being set off
I was thinking something similar but the Cataclysm armors are allowed to reach 35% through upgrade orbs
does anyone have power generation advice? im trying to use thermal magmatic dynamos with blazing blood but that doesnt seem like a long term option
you can pump lava out of the nether with create and power dynamos thats way
Hey, does anyone have an awesome world seed to share? I'm wanting to restart to play "for real" after messing around for a while
I'm especially interested in green areas (as opposed to snow, desert, etc.) with a good area for building, and vicinity to warm ocean. Maybe someone has something like that.
this dragon has an invisible aoe how do i even dodge it
as davey said lava from the nether, or make a 10x10x100 hole and fill the first layer with lava, when it reaches the bottom you'll have a 10000 pool which counts as infinite for create wherever you need it.
with a couple upgrades you should get 320rf/t i think per dynamo
should hold you over nicely until you can make a gas gen from mekanism
Hey quick question, so I built my base in the warm ocean (like it’s in those arching pillars and almost stone rainbows) and I’m making floating islands and different pyres n stuff, but certain materials keep getting sandy or piles of sand ontop of them and it’s kinda annoying, any recommendations to stop immersive weathering in an area or should I just use different materials that don’t have weather versions?
are gas gens worth it? i know in some mod packs they are heaviily nerfed. The only main reason i havent gone that route yet. Im faily late game? (beat ender dragon) and am working on the automation logistics
i have a single generator and it can go up to 60kfe/t when the network is processing ores, but if you're post ender dragon you can use it as a temporary solution until you have turbines online
just the necessity of fighting it
Thank you again
I'm bummed that Apotheosis isn't in this, even a severely toned down version for balance. Why was it left out?
WOW, Tinker's has gotten so much cooler since I last played with it. I'm so glad it's in this pack!
Lately I had been partial to Silent Gear and its addons, but this works well
Invalidates a lot of things being so op but they added the enchantment library from it as a separate mod I believe
apoth would need to be so toned down that it would arguably create disappointment from some
i believe it would anyway
same case as Draconic in MCE1
That's fair. I just miss the random apothic bosses that would spawn around, offering a decent challenge and cool random loot. It made things exciting. However, you could get far too powerful quickly, so I get the OP bit...
I'm excited the Enchantment Library is in this, thanks for telling me. The recipe is insanely easy, though; far more so than in Apotheosis which is a bit of a challenge. Is there a plan to gate it a bit more behind some more challenging progress?
Was Draconic Evolution in MCE1? I forget. It's been so long.
no, thus why i use it as an example
it would have been in the same situation
Ah, I see what you mean now. Both mods get you pretty OP, yeah.
Apotheosis is modular, but I assume each module was deemed unfitting in MCE2?
I still hope someday we'll see the Enchantment Table Buildup portion included, it was just fun having to math out/build it up
Gives the table a lil more P'zaz and imo it's a fun thing to work out up while when playing something with adventure progression like this
Is a Cursed Armor going to spawn for every single chest I open? It's been 10 in a row so far
I've never done mine colonies before but thank you for including it in the pack, it's been a fun time
there is a different chance per chest type, you're just unlucky, but I find the chance also too high
Haha I sure felt unlucky, but a few chests have been normal since, at least. Thanks.
Does wood decay on water?
Does anyone know what those Efficiency debuffs on Accessories do?
I'm not sure what efficiency is being debuffed
affect the potency of the accessory's effect
you can see that there's text in its description which is the same color as the efficiency modifier
Ah okay, so whatever number is showing for the Accessorie's effect is what the Accessory does after the debuff?
yes
Perfect thanks!
and you can craft multiple of the same together to improve efficiency
ae2 exporting of fluid is too slow even with 4 accel cards. is there an alternative to exporting a ton of fluid outside of quantum entanglaporter? or am i missing something? primarily trying to find an alternative to the sink thats effective and efficient for the amount of mass production we have?
are you trying to make a singularity or is this something else?
negative. just outputting a ton of water from our me into a ton of machines. (massive brine farm / gas productions.) we have an entanglaporter hooked to a massive pump farm but have also reached a chokepoint with that output. wondering if there is anything that can rival the sink in uncapped output. or am i setting up a second water output through yet another entanglaporter.
if you need unlimited water to put in machines putting a goety haunted jug with integrated dynamics pipes is fast and endless
thats how me and a friend made singularities so if the pipes and blocks work together maybe that can help
you sir, are amazing. thank you so much
has anyone else had problems force chunk loading in another dim (sakura) and its not actually force chunk loading it? i already have ftbchunk force load to always but its still not working.
Had a similar issue with the nether and the chunk loading being inconsistent
at least im not the only one
Has anyone come across colorful blocky dragons?
And if so are they dangerous?
I set up a base in a meadow and suddenly I'm surrounded by these massive dragon-looking things that jump out of the water
are they swimming? do you mean these ones?
~~Sea serpents about to obliterate mind and body really quick if they aren’t /~~
what are my options for a chunk loader in the nether?
oh, right, "massive". then it's not those ones in the image 
maybe they are secretly a rat and its all about perspective size, i think thats a perfectly respectably sized mob >.<
I cant seem to use FTB to claim chunks in the nether?
Sorry just saw this. I think it's part of the Candy Cavity. Not sure how rare that biome is, but I just happened to set up my base directly above it, and now there are multiple giant dragon-looking things randomly popping up out of nowhere.
They are not the mobs in the image you sent
Also, side question, but does the Light buff from Corail Tombstone, which reduces the damage from undead mobs, work on things like bosses, Kobolds, The Ancient Remnant, etc.? I'm not sure how far that buff goes or if it's mainly for skeletons and zombies.
Not sure how modding works that well or tags but it wouldn’t surprise me if it’s a tag or something so creators can say it’s undead (like how smite works on most modded undead mobs)
So anything considered undead modding or otherwise would be effected by that buff
This question is for the devs and such but is there supposed to be a Candy Cavity DIM or did I stumble into something I wasn't meant to be in
dim? as in dimension? no, but a big cave
What’s needed for sharing health for your rat?
Odd Yes Dimension
Mustve been a bug then, would explain the normal fish being on the world but when when I fell to the moon from a friends space station, I fell into a Candy Cavity world
how do you fight ignis more then once, there is only one ignited revenant and it seems they do not respawn?
there should be two revenants, and you're intended to find more structures
Maybe you fell into a wormhole?
But no that’s crazy bug tho I bet, but maybe would be awesome if all the Alex caves being turned into demensions versions similar to the bosses?
(Conspiracy theories I got no idea)
Also crazy question but what yall think is best method for getting netherite only in overworld or non nether gated demensions?
the ancient factories. they always spawn with 4 ancient debris
o.O thank you il def start searching o.O
Craft an eye of the mech, will make your search a whole hell of lot easier, as the factories only spawn underground(and on the server I play on, under the ocean).
Also, the room with the ancient debris is hidden to the right if the Harbringer boss(who is powered down and won't move when you enter the arena)
a change in config for sophisticated storage wouldnt go unappreciated more so for the stack upgrade limits in a given storage having that at higher than 2 would be nice
genuine question: what situation are you in where you need more than 2 stack upgrades? is moving to the next tier of upgrade not an option?
or maybe moving some of the bulk items to storage drawers since those can hold a lot more upgrades
ye just saw it, might want to look at a voiding upgrade instead lmao
that being said you can easily solve this with storage drawers, you can fit a whole bunch of them per drawer, and each emerald upgrade will multiply the current max stack limit by 32
that is true i did forget about that
fix one insane number with another insane number, fun game of chicken
that's odd, i'm pretty sure i got a drawer to hold a few hundred million items before, can't check from work tho ._.
hate to ping you from this from a couple days ago, but could you send a ss of the hole setup? I tried doing this and the hose pulley wont register the 10x10x100 as infinite and i set both the hole and the setup twice to double check
still at work ._.
i've not been able to get the hose to actually say anything about recognising it as infinite in this pack, but it still treats it as one
does it look like the corners get pulled but it all is treated as infinite?
nope, it's just a normal flat square of lava
hmm, im having an issue where the corners get pulled into the hose and ive had to shut off the system before it pulls all the source blocks
and you're certain it's at least 100 blocks deep right?
easy to lose a layer here and there
yeah i double checked
also, just checking off the obvious things, the hose needs to be all the way to the bottom of the pool
hmm lemme sink to the bottom and double check that
if the bottom is flat you just need to make sure you roll it out until it stops moving, but making sure doesn't hurt ye
looks like the hose reaches the bottom
odd, if it's still not working by the time i'm home i'll ping you and we can see about troubleshooting it
awesome ty!
i'll let it run just in case it might just be an oddity and see if maybe it was just being weird
did you manage to get it working?
no idea, had to run and grab enderium shards but when i hooked it back up it immediately continued pulling lava 🙁
this is how i have it, 10x10 lava source blocks on layer 63 with the hole going down to -44 and the pulley touching the bottom
hmm, maybe my issue is i have my pulley in the center
(also i don't know if this is the right place for long running troubleshooting so feel free to move it somewhere else or message me directly if that's better)
Question for the devs...I'm not sure if this is a vanilla Minecraft thing or not, but your weapon's durability depletes by one PER MOB HIT, so I just had an enchanted iron sword with mending at full durability break almost instantaneously because I swiped multiple mobs in my farm.
Is this something that can be looked at? It's actually insane how fast items break, including diamond. I've resorted to using wooden swords at my mob farm because they break in three hits and I don't want to waste durability on higher-tier items.
according to the minecraft wiki that's a vanilla thing, you can use unbreaking to reduce the chance of durability going down
alternatively you can use an unbreakable sword, powered or tinker (still needs repairing unless you make it unbreakable or powered)
Are you sure? I've never seen a wooden sword break in two hits at a mob farm before and I've been playing this game for 12 years. I'm not saying you're wrong, but I feel like something is off with this.
as far as i can see each mob hit counts as 1 use in vanilla yes, a basic iron sword has like 250 durability tho, how many mobs are we talking about here that it would break that fast?
It must have been like, 30-40 illagers in one spot
i'm surprised entity cramming wasn't doing the job then lol, but ye in that case each swing would do 30-40 durability without unbreaking i think
Well thanks, it's insane that this is a thing though lol
I mean you are swinging a sword at like superhuman speed through dozens of feet worth of flesh, bone, and armor, that would damage any tool pretty quickly lmao, but yea that is crazy, maybe make sure you are chewing the mobs up through spikes or fall damage so you don’t have to hit any multiple times
Is there anything in MCE2 similar to the Slime Sling to get around faster?
the slinging mechanic still exists, it's just a modifier now
Ars has some stuff if you use combination of leap, amplify and slow fall
Thanks!
Is Corail Tombstone bugged in MCE2? I have the Treasure Seeker perked maxed out to obtain drops at 100% but I rarely get any still
it might only be a 100% chance increase not 100% as in "every time"
Ah okay, well if that's the case then that makes sense
Eternal hate for sea serpent
I'm surprised you found one tbh
I just got insta killed when I was fishing
I don't even hear anything except a big sea serpent jumping on me
I just ran into The Goose and I regret my decision to have walked into its territory
anyone know why i cant break certain block like cobble and containment jars? anyone have this issue? the only thing that had changed was becoming a vampire hunter
ive been using roller skates for travel they are siiiiick
Yeesssss
Was wondering how to reset them since once they hit max level I tried doing the reset level option but it’s still at max just with lower stats now :c
Like it doesn’t gain experience anymore sadlyyy
I found a potential bug. I was killed by an Illager Pikeman (which I believe just spawned randomly with a small raiding party) from behind a glass pane and two blocks away. I was sitting in a chair afk and it was able to kill me through the glass barrier. There were no holes at all and there was a table in between the glass and chair, so realistically this should not have killed me
they just want to be your friend
So much so that they've mastered molecular distortion to give me hugs through walls two blocks away
Nice witch hazel wood
Thanks I thought it looked pretty nice
Witch Hazel wood is best wood
whats up with soul vultures? ||they seem the only mob in the great below that attacks unrelated to sound||
i don't know but i very much dislike them xD can easily get around not triggering ANY of the other mobs in that dim, until a vulture shows up out of nowhere and starts spam diving you.
everything being dark also makes them disappear against the background
but I suppose the place is intended to be a little hostile?
yeah i know its supposed to be hostile but im not sure as to whats the correct approach to the dimension is.
is it supposed to be all sneaky? well tough luck a vulture just beacons your location to everyone
is it supposed then to be a all hell let loose and try surviving all the mobs? then when do you mine?
all that and me not finding any osmium makes this a really awful experience
I followed other ppls advice and went all the way to the top before mining, if you light up your own tunnels it's pretty peaceful
interesting advice, thanks ill try that
Man I really wish Minecraft would fix the hitbox phasing through blocks like glass panes
My house has so many windows that it’s not even safe from these pikeman lol I’ll have to make more defenses
I haven't really been paying attention but has someone started on making iron's spells quests?
Do we know if the Iron spells questline is still being worked on?
yeah, there's one on the github
as an active PR atm
same with Rats
Oh cool, ty 👍
This is a very funny coincidence
Im at work and eas just thinking "hmm I could maybe work on that with my partners help"
Is there a way to filter ars n. Glyphs by tier in JEI so I know which ones to make?
Nevermind, I found tthem 😛
I have the thing that highlits enemies when i hit em only thing saving me
finally made it to the moon, not sure why a lich has to wear a space suit when they dont need to breath...
They don’t wanna get sunburned >.<
… feel like unprotected ionizing radiation in the vacuum of space may not be very pleasant even to a lich
Are there thermal series + create integrations in this pack?
does compact machines chunk loading not work currently? ive tried chunkloading both the chunk the machine is in and the machine itself while inside it through FTB yet no matter what how I try it doesnt seem to work
Could be my luck again but did anyone else have trouble finding the structure for the rat baron and Flying dutchrat?
I see that theyre objects to spawn them can be mad as a work around but I was hoping to find their "arenas"
Flying Dutchrat is a floating ship made of translucent green wooden blocks in the air. cant miss it.
Rat Baron is a landing stripway made of black and white blocks on the ground.
That's what I've read just having trouble finding them is all
Things I didn't expect myself to do today
Note this did not catch the boss as well, I just disarmed him .-.
Lmaooooo planeless rat baron
Is the iron golem banned from the powered spawner?
I'm not convinced Chunk Loading works at all, I've got 7 chunks force loaded and even when I'm online and leave the area I think they unload.
Not great for this PITA nether Lava Train I spent forever setting up 
I've gotten mine to be reliable enough for me with a combo of a vanilla portal chunk loader and ae2 spacial anchor, but it does shut down if I relog, and I have to revisit the area to get it so it's loaded again
And by reliable enough I mean that I've maybe had it go out once in the past 2-3 weeks when I was online but away from my base, can't fully remember if it's gone out
Vanilla or Ars chunk loading are still options
If ftb is being goofy, and also that one wireless power mod I think has a chunk loader
It's so frustrating, I noticed the drygmy farm wasn't doing stuff unless I was nearby but figured it was no big deal, now my lava source is compromised it's more annoying. I've got a portal for the train but there's 2/3 blocks in the nether that I want to stay loaded to keep it running so I may have to try the anchor or similar.
I'll take a look and see if any of these can help, otherwise I'm burying a creative energy cell and a spatial anchor near my portal and hopefully that works
Oh yeah, the one from ender IO too
Yeah, I'm not a fan of it either, I hate having things I set up to be reliably on when I'm playing blink out of existence because there's something that unloading the stuff I specifically went out of my way to make sure was loaded
It was worse when I had my base inside compact machines, they wouldn't even stay loaded while I was online
I've put 3 separate mobs in EnderIO powered spawner and with all 3 I get "Blocked by another mod". Is this part of the MCE2 config, or is there something I am doing wrong?
how can we know our current money balance
I find it really weird that the quests say to melt the blazes in the smeltery but there is a blaze that teleports out causing issues. Wondering if those jolt blazes should have been black listed. Anyway I read about the ichor and going to go that method.
Any way to make iron spells stay longer? Or only way is to use potions?
What mobs did you put in?
There's a command for it. If you search discord you should be able to find it
Crocodile and iron golem. Im good now i just put a Crocodile in a drygmy farm and made a vanilla golem farm
It wouldn't surprise me if iron golem are blocked. As for crocs there might be a health limit. Which means the more health the mob has the more energy it needs. And those might exceed the limit
iirc iron golems are just default blocked by enderio spawners
Does anyone know if the Slayer cloak works on boss mobs, and also what’s the HP threshold that monsters need to be at in order to install-kill them with the cloak?
Do you mean to iron skin spell for irons spellbook?
If so I believe the potion is one option but if im not mistaken, increasing the rarity/level of the spell as well as increasing your spell power should do the trick
Holy or General spell power should work
@small flare I made a oakskin lvl 4 but I lasts only 32 seconds, I hoped to make it a minute at least
My bad, Oakskin*. I believe mine is somewhere close to 1 minute or over so it should be possible i could better let you know when I get home but if im not mistaken duration values and strength values almost all go up with general spell power% and school spell power%
Try wearing iron spells book armor, using the upgrade orbs on your choice of armor/spell book or using the right modifiers on any tinkeres tool/armor
Has anyone run into annoying issues with the farmers hut in minecolonies?
The one im dealing with right now is that im trying to get my farmer to plant Durum wheat in my jungle village, first he doesnt really obey the field size restrictions and then he also just tills the earth but doesnt plant the wheat
Ive tried to get him to plant carrots and garlic too but i just get the same results
minecolonies seems to behave really stupid in this pack and I hope for it to get removed
Unlikely, it's a pet mod for Adam
Whaaat? Its been fun now that I've figured it out ive only run into a couple pain points
Only think id say to people is unlike my friend and I who learned about it 6 buildings and like 9 upgrades late, nake the Builder Assist Hammer
really? I've never seen him mentioning it
#🏮-mce-general message
#🏮-mce-general message
oh shit
there are more, he likes that it's "different" and enables other playstyles and such
which is true to be fair
I feel like it's a big blob of bloat and fits better in a pack centered around it
I would agree with that
not saying I dislike it
it's like... when you like the mod then you would play a pack just for it. if you don't you would just never use it, it's a thing on its own, not really integrated.
and on servers it might even be banned
it's not that I dislike it, but it feels so bad in a pack with so many other and "better" options
it's like... I wouldn't try to play skyblock in MCE2 as well you know
but the idea of it is pretty cool and I kinda want to play around with it at some point. I just can't really imagine doing that in MCE2
same
its also a huge mod and I would rather have 2 more tech mods in its place
(as long as those tech mods add something worthwhile because I don't like having 5 mods that basically do all the same)
I like minecolonies but you kinda have to view it as a fishtank
if you buy a fishtank hoping to get anything out of it but the chance to look at some little guys, you're going to be disappointed
I feel like tech is underrepresented right now as it is and it doesn't balance out with all the magic mods that we have, like MCE1 did
sure, but for a fishtank it's... too big, too slow, too clunky imo
sure, I generally agree, Nuclearcraft is missing for example 
but what I mean is that for example Pneumaticcraft is already kinda useless. like why would you ever do anything with it really? (except for disenchanting basically)
I like the idea of Thermal early and Mek gated late, that's a progression, they do a bit different things. I'm all in for a bit more of that
though to be fair, I'm not even sure there are any other good tech mods? but I'm not an expert, but from MCE1 I mostly remember Thermal, EnderIO, Mek, Nuclearcraft
Like I expected much more of Thermal and EnderIO, and now I feel like these mods have been subpar since 1.12.
there's a leftover config for IF which I would love to see personally with all it can do
never really got into Nuclearcraft but I remember it having some cool stuff, heck even AA even though the stuff was all around the place
magic mods have really taken over in terms of quality and content compared to 1.12. which I really enjoy
Yea it does, I killed the fire cataclysm boss around 300-ish health left
modular powersuits :despair:
is Ad Astra still getting updates for 1.20?
yeah, I feel the same about them.
right, IF I totally forgot though I... kinda dislike it, it's too strong, too much magic one block solutions I feel. I think that would be a good candidate to gate like with Mek.
Nuclearcraft is a love/hate mod, haha. It's kinda complicated, but imo very cool to automate with AE2.
Weird it doesn’t always proc with certain mobs
I killed a buffalo with 100 hp thinking it’d die around 20 hp but I had to full kill it
I think we're definitely going to get more space content as the pack progresses
that may just be copium but it will sustain me regardless
it just might take a while, but afaik the idea is to make planets unique and interesting, yeah
hopefully space stations become more useful too
maybe a cheaper rocket that can travel between planetary orbits, then we can take landers down
of course that's more on ad astra's end than mce's, but yknow
To be fair I feel like thats MCE 1 as well though no? A big selling point for this pack when it comes to getting people into it imo is that he has something for everyone to enjoy. Maybe thats also a flaw with it but I feel like that just comes with the territory
I mean ive had people who decide to make rats their source of power generation, resource generation and combat, same with magic, and I feel like its the same for minecolonies
Ive always just been of the mind set that my main joy with MCE is that it has a lot of fun directions to explore into and if eel thats exactly what minecolonies brings to the table on its own
Right now im trying to figure out ways to integrate rats and minecolonies into a nice island civilization within ratlantis. Sort of bring a real Neo-Ratlanteans vibe to the dimension
Different sort of rat guards to defend the town and then just have some rats that work there and live in their own homes for fun
If I remember right it's a chance to activate not every time
My fingers are forever crossed to see the magic skill tree in the next update
(specially the Iron spell's one)
I agree with this, while it feels like a pack u dip your toes into eveything, it also has something for everyone, I say its a good thing it's in the pack.
Should just copy paste the atm10 one tbh
If I knew how to make those I would make a cooler one for sure
im surprised there isnt a huge mc server for this
that soudns expensive
it would be
I wonder how much, I'd be open to running it depending on how expensive lol
How many gigs?
I ran a server for 4 friends with a total of 10 GB and it cost 30 bucks for the basic version
id be down to get a better version
it isnt expensive for me, i would just need help running it lol
I should specify, it was 30$ per month
yeah 16gb for 3 months is 130
which isnt bad personally
i just wanna bring everything together if that makes sense
Forcefully commandeer a hypixel hosted server from a empty minigame subserver
The amount of server hosting it most cost for them to keep that running must be absolutely insane now that I think about it x.x… wish there was something like that for modded mc tho. Like official massive factions server with modded weapons and tech and icbms lmao
Factions was my childhooooood
Does anyone know how long it takes for villagers to forgive you after hitting them a few times? I hit multiple villagers while trying to move them and it’s been close to an hour. They’ve yet to allow me to trade.
I mean I would be pretty mad if I got punched once let alone a few times
I say make sure you travel away and unload alongside maybe even a diff demension and get hero of the village, and bribery if they accept that lol
Someone know the command to see our money ?
Well as much as I was loving mine colonies I've definitely just made the dumbest unrealized mistake by teaching them to climb vines
withing 5 minutes of learning 3 Villagers killed themselves and I have to now go through the jungle to destroy them all
Sorry but thats fucking funny
anyone know how to find oil effectively?
Anyone know good ways to find heart of the seas without any nether prog? (Trying to get a abysal sacrifice to get another end eye and it needs a heart and I swear I have spent hours searching for shipwrecks and have found like 3 x.x)
If the only way is through occultism thingy il attempt to figure it out but I have a feeeeeeling that needs nether prog ;-; and royal jelly is super rng and don’t have much
Or some way to clone those supplementary or whatever the mod name is forms of the buried treasure maps?
treasure maps are vanilla, you can just find them in ocean ruins and shipwrecks
I've gotten two from fishing in the neptunium crates. But those are very rare
Minecolonies. Jungle biome raids spawn pirates who on their ship have a heart of the see in their chest
It was so freaking tragic man...
We rolled back the server so I could stop the research from completing since I was the only one on at the time and the last back up was 15 mins before the incident
Ohhhhhhhhh that’s interesting, I might have to look into minecolonies now, o.o
And I thought it was just treasure maps, if it’s in ocean ruins than that might be a bit easier o.o
Still like such a weird item, I mean who even has used a conduit since like. 2018 or whenever it was added (outside of modded items)
sooo bad omen 5 gave me a raid that lasted 6/5 and also spawned a wind witch which doesnt actually spawn, like I even did the lan thing searching for it for 15 minutes and eventually tried using the spawn egg and it makes a witch noise but doesnt spawn... if its because im still in normal mode it softlocked that raid lmao
also a random skele spawned that like just is frozen and these two gaurd villagers have tried tro damage it for like a solid 10 min lmao
same skeleton is not knocked unconcious and refuses to die... didnt know this was cobblemon
sooo relogging canceled the raid x.x
All my raids glitch so i just killed my two villagers i had
@fiery jackal can i dm you?
sure, i guess
If raids don’t work become the raider >,<
is there anything like the brazier but less expensive?
Torches are alright… or allight
Not for a decent area
So pretty much. No
Staff of Surpression
Doesn't that require a drop from a boss in the end? No way is that less expensive lol
Personally I'd rather fight that boss 20 times than try to automate getting netherite to build I think it's 16 or 20 netherite blocks
You don't actually need netherite for it, you can just use crying obsidian and gilded blackstone
And the boss itself isn't hard, it's more the fact that it's end gated
that's not true
crying/gilded is the same category
as is netherite blocks and ancient debris itself
unless it was changed recently, the categories mean nothing and you can just build the whole thing out of one material
I doubt that very much, because Emper would have surely checked that before making the ponder
but I can easily test that tomorrow, I finally have lots of crying obsidian
i didn't check the goddamn code and all the tags
i checked the curse page info which was apparently wrong :v
the ponder is updated to reflect this information in the upcoming patch
seriously? 😂 that's absolutely crazy
though actually it's still nether locked that way (well mostly), but at least it's affordable at all, which is great news
Massive news infact
There's even a tag for brazier materials, so in thoery you could add or remove some, right?
Imagine if you needed only enderium blocks for it 😛
well I'd say adding some other cool blocks to the list would be a good idea
just made some neutronite is there any use for it?
Try any tinker's part, they're just disabled in jei
You basically have to test them yourself
Yea I was surprised some things in tinkers can’t be made into ingots or blocks, like I made pewter randomly on accident and I can only make tools with it x.x at least let me make decorative blocks lol
pewter is very new, last tinkers update
so it seems it's no 100% supported yet in all regards
Does the purified garbage from Rats need darkness to spawn rats?
im pretty sure it doesnt, but i always build mine in a cage within a cave so they cant escape, (queue the smashing pumkins song)
of which, is there a 8 bit/noteblock cover of that song in the modpack yet? like, feels required
Yes. The only thing that makes it different is that it will never spawn plague rats
Ah okay thanks!
Also, I noticed that cheese is listed as a 16% drop chance from rats but I've killed 100+ and nothing has dropped?
Is this a bug or was cheese removed from their drop table?
the JEI drops for rats list the Ratlantis-specific drops aswell, which are only from rats found in Ratlantis wearing Togas
Ah okay, thanks, so what exactly is the best method for getting cheese for your first rats?
cauldron with milk
Thank you!
finalllyyyy, I have aquired 12 eyes annnnddd have done it never touching the nether yippeeeeee
im going to hold off from exploring the end for a while but would skiping expert and going right to master cause any problems? or would is also activate all expert mode mobs
only took around 250 days and let me tell you, yoinking the gamma gun from space cowboy and farming the amythest grabs they spawn has been a life saver, amythest bloom armour was amazing, also heartstop, guybrush until it almost broke and then firedragon blood sword has been amazing... shoulvd edone the desert boss first tho imo since the weapons (and spells) you get would have helped soooo much with other bosses damage wise
overall awesome to see how doable it was and not saying it should nesserily be a 'challenge' in the quest packs but was def a fun experience, and honestly I want to go as long as possible like this since not having easy acces to blazes and glowstone, quartz and other nether materials has made me find some unique ways of getting it, and finnally figuring out the pale eye and fighting scylia (levathian is too powerful for me x.x, plus got super lucky geting the mech eye from a black market container even tho i think its not technically nether gated)
Do you know why my familiar from corail tombstone didnt attack, and how to make them not following me
What mob is it?
Hey do we know if the shop is confirmed to come out in the next update?
no
there is no target time for it
Okay thanks!
but it being in the coming update is extremely unlikely
i can say this cause i'm literally the one that is supposed to be programming it
Haha well I’m very excited to see it when you do program it all 😂
Can more performance mods be added in the next update? Since MCE2 is a huge Modpack, performance mods are very needed. One of them is Entity Culling. I think it can greatly increase the performance. There's also Badoptimizations, DoesPotatoTick and others
those are the sorts of things that do require extensive testing, when there's a lot of mods already, not all of the are magic fix buttons, some might also clash.
Ok, thanks
Oh, btw, I just added a few performance mods to the pack myself and my fps increased significantly( also important to mention that I play MCE2 with 68 extra mods, so it is heavier for me). I went from average 70 FPS with Photon shaders to average 100 and no stutters with these performance mods: Entity Culling, AI improvements, Fastworkbench, FastFurnace, Cull Leaves, DoesPotatoTick, FastBoot and Badoptimizations. I know testing is required, but I'm just saying these mods actually help a ton, especially for low-end PCs.
i cant create a superflat, does anyone know how to fix this?
So this is odd,
I was in my HC world, and I mined an ore in the Nether with vein miner. I had a Totem of Undying. The ore exploded, and I'm assuming all of the ore did as well, and it says I died but my totem still went off. The game then immediately crashed?
Has anyone else experienced this?
I'm not sure how I still died with the totem
It's like the game bugged out and killed me first before the totem went off
that's interesting, post the text with the crashlog in #🦝mce2-client-questions-and-issues
Thanks!
Any idea how to get a backup of my world before this weird bug? I went to my backups folder and nothing is there for some reason.
Please and thank you 🙂
the folder is called simplebackups afaik
Gotta be careful with the green ore(can't remember the name other than its tri-something. It was the same in the original with
No joke I think it’s bugged or something. I tested it again but this time no vein mine, and I’m pretty sure the explosions are bugged where you get hit by every tick of explosion damage no matter how far away you are.
I could be wrong but based on how I moved it was a crazy amount of damage and I was far away
The only difference is that with vein mine you seem to take the explosion damage from every explosion all at once whereas normal mining you seem to take the damage every tick. I’m assuming that’s because the individual blocks are exploding with normal mining but not with vein mine.
dont think its bugged, i believe it's to do with you mining it so fast, each block acts like its own block of tnt, and setting off one creates a chain reaction
on a side not making a few ore blocks could be good for trolling a few ppl
stibinite (prolly misspelled but its the green nether ore) is easy to mine, if you do it one piece at a time. the first piece you mine primes the other pieces in direct contact with it so if you hit those they detonate. Its tell is that the 'dark' part of the ore is now lit up kinda like redstone but not as obvious. if you mine a non-primed ore block, near the primed ones, it'll deactivate them and instead prime the ones in direct contact with that new location you just mined. it took me getting exploded twice to figure it out
Oh really so it’s like, a mining puzzle? I never knew that even in of mce lmao, I just took the risk with each one and took the damage in stride (or death)
That really cool
lil bug im pretty sure, the illigar additions katana gives you speed one permanently even if its just in your inventory and not equpied
@bold forge I know it's far off enough that this question is basically a 'what if' but when Fossils and Archeology inevitably gets out of alpha in 1.20.1 and has a stable version, what are the odds it goes into mce2
i would love that also
my dreams of creating a Zoo with a lot more monsters like my fav childhood youtuber would finally come true
idk, probably nonzero, but who knows
that is a) the most I was expecting and also b) a perfectly fine answer :D
Underground yoglabs/scp containment is my eventual goal with my world
Yea thatd be great too
Iron spellbooks 1.20 support is my nee birthday present
then you better start working on it
i believe in you ❤️
No need! It sounds like the dev is already on it #🎨mce2-dev-sneak-peek message
Now i patiently wait for the quest line to be done or to hear that it isn't being worked on anymore so I can see about doing it myself
I cant knife grass. it does the swing
I think there's another knife you can try
-I am SO hyped to have the mage tree back Q_Q
What is a Mage Tree? What mod?
it's another one of the skill trees custom to the pack, implemented through Pufferfish's Skills
Wait, will we get Valkyrien Skies in the next update?
No
does mage tree mean theres a chance of being able to find more Irons spellbook stuff in loot chests
The OG magic tree 
I saw this and I thought we were getting Create Clockwork and Valk Skies 😔🤡
Looks like the next update is gonna be some big time cooking 
what even is clockwork..
ok, literally the ONLY thing that pops up is create x valky skies
That's what I thought lol. But apparently its another mod. Create Clockwork and Valky Skies are peak btw
they be deleting the #🐈-github-modpacks updates 
You can see what the actual edits are on GitHub, usually just small edits from previous edits stuff
Hey all good morning. I haven’t been around in a bit. Have any new updates dropped since the beginning of Sept?
no
nope its been about a month and a half since the announcement of update soon tm so it should be soon :)
Thank ya!
i wouldnt count on that just because its been a while doesnt mean its coming out soon. adam probably busy with other work/personal stuff. he might not have been working on it this whole time which is fair since he isnt exactly a paid employee
im just waiting fir the new update before starting a new world aha
I got bullied into joining an atm10 server and already progressed to in mortality. It was fun and I got to play with a bunch of different toys but I'm ready to go back to mce2 soon, hopefully.
What is barrys yardsale? Is that the upcoming ingame shop?
a quest-based standin for the shop
the shop will have some more advanced things that won't have to go through FTBQ, but for now this serves as a manual standin
yea just somwhere to spend some coins and hopefully take some of the heat off emp in regards to people spamming for the shop :>
can add to it between updates and get rid of it when the shop is out
its a temporary pop up shop sort of thing 
great solution
you should do seasonal shops
like for a week during december add a christmas shop
stuff like that
would also be an excuse to keep shoving barry in funny clothing
hell you could an anniversary shop
life service minecraft
could actually do that within reason when the real shop is added 
me when i add RealDateAndTimeShopRequirement
do a 3:33am requirement for a real gun
blackmarket weapon but only if youre on during demon hours
Simple Voice chat wasn't included in this update?
no, IIRC they're planning a more robust social update in the future
Hm, understandable
Why was the Minecrafty mouse cursor removed in this update? I used to like it 😔😢
same, alas
it was causing a crash i couldn't figure out
its such a small addition it made the most sense to take it out for now
Yeah, I figured there was a reason. Super weird though!
when will the custom builds be added, or did they alr get added?
I've been thinking of the creeper milk mod, and I've got a few ideas on expanding it.
- One bucket of creeper milk + four bamboo + four string makes four dynamite. Throwable and does area damage, but not strong enough to destroy blocks.
- Putting creeper milk in a cauldron and waiting turns it into cheese. These cheese blocks work the same as TNT but are not affected by gravity when activated.
- If rats exist in the world, creeper cheese blocks also work as pest control. Rats will go to the cheese and eat some of it before exploding. Don't know how many rats it would take to completely eat a cheese block though.
@flint egret molten brass poured into casting basins causing 810mb of brass(1 block) to turn into 1 nugget of brass
This has been fixed for 1.2.1 already
aye
it was a me being copypaste lazy error
There's a 1.2.1?
Ahh, okay
will probably be more lik 1.2.0.1 unless we pack in some larger features also
If it helps with anything, turning up my mob cap to 1024% on severcore made the stuff actually spawns
"Can I Beat MCE2 With 10X SPAWN RATE??"
Is actually a perfectly normal amount of spawns
10x heath rates and your playing 1.20 mce1 edition
How far is dutchrat??
Do you have an idea to farm a lot of Neptunium ?
from fishing. Use rats to auto fish
Little Logistics also adds an autofisher but youd have to be really lucky
Do you have tips how to get legendary fish ? From stardew fishing ? I dont find wiki for this mod
get super lucky as they are a very rare thing
Do you think I can get one of them with rats ?
no, they are only gotten manually
My rat has fished them up
The legendary ? They are very rare ?
They fished heart of the océan too ?
Update, I did have a rat catch a legendary fish lsat light. It is just very very rare because of the loot pool
Hi again me can u tell me what is the best enchant to put on armor/ Weapon
shimmer, trust me
nothing quite compares to the sparkly glow of armour to intimidate your foes
Not sure about that

Do you have any solution to grab big animals like whales ?
The cage can only take smalls animals but how can i capture big one ?
Soul gem and soul vial
Shhh ||dont spread it around or u risk it getting nerfed||
make it incompatible with mending
question for everyone, on an old server i got a lantern that illuminated mobs and then did damage to hostile mobs (perfect for the nether portal and zombie piglins). Does anyone know the name?
How do I disable quest synchronization when I'm in a team? To prevent a friend from completing a quest for me.
be on your own team and mark other teams as allies to allow chest interactions
Thx
Hey um, how much gb ram I need for a play with 3 people(including me)
I have 32gb ram
You should ask in a more appropriate channel like #🌐mce2-server-questions-and-issues
it's fine
but this is bette to have serveur to play with your friend
because when you're not in game, your friend can't play
is the "The End" quest bugged? We have all the main eyes and killed the ender dragon but it didnt complete.
Which chapter ?
its the "End Progression" chapter. The "The End" Quest.
I have the grey checkmark so its complete, but the intermideate quests are not.
yeah there's some weird behavior going on with the Min Dependencies option for quests. that depends on a quest that requires any 12 of the 16 possible eyes, but said quest only seems to recognize completion when you have all its dependencies done, even though it should only need any 12 of them
i'm not sure if it's just min dependencies acting up, or if it's a combination of nonlinear quest progression and min dependencies behaving weird together.
May I ask, can all the weapons and equipment in the integration pack be listed in the task document, along with their approximate strength comparisons (such as T0, T1, T2, etc.)?
that is a very big ask, and would be low priority. There are a metric ton of stuff in the pack
you can always make one yourself, and if its high quality enough, might be added to the pack
i was looking for lightning dragon caves for a very long time, and finally decided to look in the ice and fire config. all of the biome_tags are false for the lightning dragon cave biomes...shouldnt there be a true one so we can get a level 5 female dragon spawn?
or am i just agressively stupid?
the boolean controls an inversion state
the gist is that they should appear in jungles, savannahs, and the like
ah gotcha
The problem is, I don't know all the equipment in the integration package and their stats, which is why I asked this question
Any tools that can help my building skills? I'm using Minecolonies since it gives pretty nice buildings to add around to places but wondering if there is anything else that can be used
copy paste tool. You can import files to automatically build stuff. Mostly from the r/9x9
schmaticannon from Create as well
Figured out how to use it and the template manager to copy and paste stuff but then my game crashed instantly after making a template and switching back to the tool lol
I am proud of you, you finally have GIF perms
latest peak looks like a possible Irons dungeon?
It issssss
Can't wait for the next update so I can start another pkaythrough with friends
How to remove enchantments from two-handed weapons; neither Magic Cloak nor Tombstone works.
tombstone works if you use its magic book slot
It's already resolved, thank you.
Any ETA on the next update?
we don't do those so no
So 23 minutes got it
23 Months*
46 years*
Gulp
Im just waiting for the next update so that I can start my second playthrough with my buds
Gonna be kicking my feet like a giggly little school girl
so what does the contract curse do?
updating modernfix has produced some interesting results
