Powered: Any mechanic that affects game-play. For example: copper tools and armor, electricity system, mobs that drop loot, barrels. Not an example: new colors of wool, bats, name tags, complex models, hats.

Overpowered: Any powered mechanic,that allows faster and more productive game-play (better) than regular game-play. For example: double ore gain (macerators, pulverizers, etc), horses (faster travel), coal to diamond recipe, super-powerful armors, cheaper diamond level protection armor, double gain circuit crafting recipes, any automation of mining, breeding, or farming, cheaper rail recipes, more powerful lava generator, cobblestone*.

Underpowered: Any powered mechanic, which is more costly and less useful (worse) than regular game-play. For example: Macrerators compared with pulverizers, bricks compared to cobblestone, GT automation compare to all other automations, arguably factorization ore gain tripling (due to the ease of mining 50% more over having the extremely complicated and expensive setup).

Not to be confused with:

Game-breaker: Any mechanic, or combination of mechanics, that utterly nullifies the intended game-play completely and thus break the game. For example: dirt to diamond, Endgame of most mods for other mods, philosopher stone for other mods, automated mining, farming, and breeding for vanilla, GT and anything for either GT or everything.

*cobblestone is a very very cheap and easy to get block that has high blast resistance, making it by far the best building material

Consider it without scrap, since the problem is when uranium made from UU matter made from energy gives more energy then it took to make and thus violating the conservation of energy. Having a positive feedback loop when giving the mass fabricator scrap is simply making energy from the mass of the scrap. Thus it's just 56 UU matter, or 6 compressed UUM+2, for regular uranium and 7 UUM (in a U shape) if it comes as a uranium cell.

If you think it's overpowered to have "cheap" mass-energy conversion in IC2 regular using the two most expensive machines in IC2 you are probably already using gregtech so It's not a problem for you.

Tungstensteel armor should have unbreaking X.

Like the concept. Again, has to wait until the mythical update (unless you can sell it as CF hardener or something that's totally not a weapon like the mining laser)

... what?

You know, you guys are the only people I've ever encountered who would willingly make mob farms just to get zombie flesh. That stuff is one of the easiest, most accumulating, and most totally useless of all minecraft's resources- zombies will literally come towards you. After the first few days you could already have a stack of zombie flesh. No one who isn't totally addicted to exploit systems would go through the tiring and boring process of mob farming just to get a lot of fertilizer, or leather, or whatever the suggestion to make zombie flesh usable think it should give. everyone else would just be glad to have something to do with zombie flesh.

Really, everything is overpowered here because you are willing to trade having fun for half that time grinding just because it is an exploit.

Also, mob-grinders (at least, sensible ones) are laggy while working, so unless you need over 9000 fertilizer/hour (not that i can see anyone using 9000 fertilizer in a week) there won't be any need to run them for more then a few minutes a day, much less have them loaded all the time.

Or implement entropy mechanics

Well, how does anyone suppose to know that?

Manned watermills require a bit of setup and are almost never useful by the time you make them-they are little more than a waste of half a generator. A dynamo that can be crafted into a regular generator is much more useful as tier 0 (basically for macerating your very first ores and extracting your first rubber before you even have to make a proper generator and powering the last few seconds remaining in a machine). Also, manned watermills are very grindy in comparison: a watermill require you to run back and forth with water buckets, while a dynamo require you to just right click for a short while- It's balanced differently: the watermill is balanced on how annoying it is to use, while a dynamo is balanced by food supply. finally, a dynamo is much more mobile and spontaneous, since it doesn't require a bucket and an infinite water source.

Glowy bits? All my dreams have come true!

So it's a hand-held battery that gains energy and cost hunger when right clicked? so how about:

(battery)

and can be made into a generator:

How can you know he hasn't already done a secret super awesome nuclear industrial conflict mod?

Just add quartz to the old solar panel recipe instead of glass or one of the coal dust

Suggestion: add cables to the list of blocks endermen can pick up.

so we are all in favor of shared power between teleporters?

-Rotating? Okay, but it seems kind of complicated and not too useful.
-Five blocks is a bit too much- i don't want sheep coming along from outside the walls.
-Particles are awesome

ID's seems useful.

It's mainly overly difficult to set up and not really very useful- long distances are too energy intensive for regular use, and short distances are not really useful compare to the set up required. I think i would use it more frequently if linked teleporters could share power or something, but otherwise there is not much point.

Suggestion: Different machines have extra unique catastrophic failure (as oppose to just and explosion for all machines): The grinder cause extra "shrapnel" damage, the blast furnace melts down to (flowing?) lava, etc.

Suggestion: All machines has excess heat rating, like a reactor- they all gather excess heat every operation and will explode violently when overheat(except blast furnace, which turns to a lava block). Excess heat can only be diminished using heat vent covers, which dissipate heat slowly over time. Control blocks keep their excess heat when wrenched down to prevent cheating. This, of course, adds nothing to the game except being exceptionally obnoxious but that's exactly what Gregtech is about.

It's a joke. Horse Armor was an official DLC for Oblivion, the Elder Scroll game previous to Skyrim, which gave you... armor for your horse. Needless to say memetic statue ensued.
