I am very excited. After upgrading & adding some mods and resetting some region files to force new world generation I moved to the new site and while farming - saw one of the sheep in the area getting sucked into the air.
I have a legit hungry node right next to my overworld base, in my survival game!
You sir are my favorite Thaumaturge. I would advise you however, to not undergo this take unless the hungry node is over 15 blocks away from the closest block you place to it. I have made the mistake of accidentally walking into a hungry node's reach many a time and, let me tell you, it is not fun. At the same time, I urge you not to break it because Hungry Nodes are very powerful if used properly.
i dont know. didnt play with the new warding focus yet. but i guess it should work similar to the wand of equal trade.
I tried and it doesn't work.
The upgrades for the primal focus are kinda awful. Aside from frugal, there is only seeking at t3. The primal focus should have upgrades that do things like
1) Increase the chance of a node spawning/upgrade the possible node that spawns
2) More Damage but more unpredictable?
3) Bigger chance for different side effects (spain taint, Give target temp warp, etc.)
4) Maybe for a t5 upgrade, it could not damage the caster?
5) Multiple shots that travel unpredictably?
6) An upgrade so it doesn't kill items?
There are more possibilities but only having two upgrades for it is kinda sad.
K so I was wondering if anyone else is crashing upon picking up an empty bowl. Ever since I updated, every time I pick up an empty bowl my game crashes.
Ok so I noticed in the changelog that hungry nodes have been altered a bit (to my dismay as I love them) And I am left with an important question about its new properties.
Do they no longer gain new aspects when items are tossed in, or do they no longer gain any aspects (such as from 20 ignis to 21 ignis)?
I've seen some stuff in direwolf20's video, but Azanor, I must admit that unlike many of your textures, I dont like some of the new ones (for example the new stones that make up some parts of the labyrinth).Still it is a very cool gameplay update, I am just a little suprised and feel the eldritch labyrinth stones feel different from other thaumcraft blocks, then again it is eldritch and strange.
Do you mind posting a link to the video? I can't find it. D=
I have found what I think is the rarest aspect to ever find on a node. Any advice on what I should do with it? I don't want to break it, because I think the Aurum on it is useful for something
I honestly would jar it and keep in a backroom for storage. The reason being that recently there was a post about possible changing mana beans to only grow aspects from nearby nodes in order to balance it and Azanor said something about how he liked the idea. Because of this, I have been gathering nodes with rare aspects (permutatio and alienis) in case mana beans get changed. IF that node really is tainted (It looks perfectly like one) I would recommend that you energize it after adding some terra aspects into there (aim for 6 more).
I am hoping that there is a way to accellerate the process of infusing essentia because... I expect this infusion to take about, oh, 5 hours.
I noticed, when I type /help in creative that something seemingly related to the speed showed up... You can give that a try but other than altering the game via commands there are no methods. Also... My god! +10 warding? Thou shall n'er perish
It looks to me like the optimal way to feed a hungry node is now a hopper atop an item grate. The grate can accept items from the hopper, which will pass it one item at a time from a stack.
I suppose so. I haven't thought of that yet so I haven't tested it... Good idea though
The only thing is that you will have to have it around a corner from the opening to the hungry node as the hungry node has a... tendency to um.. eat everything...
Okay, a really stupid question this time: what is the intended use of crystallized essense? Mass storage (requiring resmelting to be used)? Crucible fodder?
You still might get more than that if it doesn't have any fabrico yet. Remember, node growth only cares about the specific aspect involved, not the total size of the node.
I feel you misunderstand... Hungry nodes work differently. They can only gain primal aspects and, using a process similar to a Deconstruction Table, they break down items.
I'm running TC in the FTB DW20 1.7 pack 1.0.1 1.0.2 tested both.
i'm not gaining aspects from items into a hungry node. tested with stacks and stacks of diff items. it isn't gaining new aspects nor adding to the aspects it currently has.
is this a bug in TC or just in the DW20 1.7 pack?
Hungry nodes only have a chance of gaining primal aspects from items and items must be thrown in as singular items, not as stacks. Additionally, the more aspects the node has, the lower the chance of it gaining aspects.
For example: I have my hungry node eating all drops from my mob farm and liquid death. Currently it is totalled of nearly 300 aspects. Tossing in an entire stack of crafting tables will only gain me 5-6 aspects due to the size.

Can you explain that idea to me? I must have missed that post but in context the idea sounds cool.

1. Get all staff upgrades (bone, firey, etc.)
2. Have enough warp
3. Get primal charm
4. Make it rain primal staff cores

You can pipe it in through the front too xD

Nope, you are spot on.

My post here about Hungry Nodes has screenshots and an explanation of its behaviors.
In terms of bullying nodes, I suspect (though I haven't tested) that you are right. I'm talking about the Node's consumption of matter
