>automating botania is fun anyways
Well no shit, sherlock. The problem is that it steers you into trying to jerry-rig a Create deploying system to automate the crucible for gold production, which is not only dogshit but especially retarded when you realize a tuff setup is both much more well designed (Botania actually is designed with some automation in mind), unlike the fucking mod mechanic that requires dropping loose items that sit in a block until a variable timer advances the recipe, and god fucking forbid there's any more steps beyond that.
Eidolon does a fine job in the pack for the purpose of major progression like the summoning gating mobs (and by extension blaze burners), but trying to put the square peg in the round hole that is automating the Crucible is absolute unwashed ass of a concept.
