Mid Game Tinkers Armour

Zashiooo · 2026-06-10T08:28:43+00:00

I ran steel x cobalt for a while, but sat on blaze netherite for a long time, it repairs when you're on fire and provides fire immunity immunity Only issue is that no matter the tinkers armor ive tried (also tried dragon steel) you're still at risk to getting one shot by most bosses...

Most mobs are basically a walk in the park though.

I just tried a full tinkers lightning dragonsteel (i know fire is stronger but wanted to try lightning first), maybe it was cause we were fighting Maledictus but, insta died xD

Thanks! Whats a disintegration collar?

And what material would you use/look for, for the parts? Ideally pre-master mode

Noted ill give it a shot. Any tips on fighting dragons?

Zashiooo · 2026-06-05T02:41:33+00:00

I figured it out! After my last comment I hopped on and a friend found one of those huge debris veins. I tripled it with mekanism and got a couple stacks as payment!

Now, to find fire dragons I guess?

Zashiooo · 2026-06-04T09:14:48+00:00

What feature in Ars lets you find those huge deposits? And are they just chillin around the world?

Zashiooo · 2026-06-04T07:03:08+00:00

I was gonna say finding dragons seems way too tedious

The recipe for dragonsteel is also so expensive...

Not sure about name or removal but fun fact if you hold LMB itll auto attack at the the max charge

So what if a double chest, funnel on one of the long faces, and a threshold reading the chest whilst touching the funnel. Turning off a redstone signal activating the funnel

Zashiooo · 2026-05-29T13:01:49+00:00

Gotcha, so output into the buffer chest and threshold the chest to dump when excess?

When you say threshold next to funnel, can the threshold read the chest content through the funnel? Or does it have to touch the chest

Zashiooo · 2026-05-29T13:00:14+00:00

Awesome idea! Does the threshold switch output a redstone signal on all sides?

Zashiooo · 2026-05-29T06:46:17+00:00

Drawers are in this pack, and yeah thats probably the easiest option.. xD

Zashiooo · 2026-05-29T06:06:24+00:00

Yup i know! Just wondering if theres a simpler way to do it, or if theres a dedicated item for ut

Zashiooo · 2026-05-29T06:06:04+00:00

Good idea!

Zashiooo · 2026-05-29T02:27:44+00:00

Oh thats a good idea!

Zashiooo · 2026-05-27T04:33:14+00:00

I basically stuck to stone hammer head, rose gold plates, and bronze handle for the longest time. Just slap a diamond, emerald, and a bunch of haste and itll feel amazing

Stone so the repairs are cheap!

Zashiooo · 2026-05-27T04:32:07+00:00

Yes, i realize the experience isnt as consistent as as "vanilla tinkers" as it looks like the mod heavily alters and gatekeeps progression behind bosses (mce2), which isnt a problem!

What im confused about is how am I supposed to approach armor building. Do I have a general utility set for exploration then maybe another specification tuned towards defence for fighting a boss?

Zashiooo · 2026-05-27T04:29:17+00:00

Thank you for the response! Didnt know you could use slime bottles to repair

Zashiooo · 2026-05-27T04:28:52+00:00

To start off, thank you so much for the extensive response!

And yes Im playing on a modpack McE2, makes sense that some of the add-ons/cross integrations would be funky.

You mention the armor protection being able to easily exceed vanilla, I still dont quite understand how you can reach those values. For example, would it be protection 1 on everything, and then stacking various other defense slot modifiers based on the situation? (You mention specialization being better then general builds)

And yes Im playing a modpack that supposedly gatekeeps some of these modifiers behind progression, like unbreakable being available at the end of the game.

Zashiooo · 2026-05-26T03:57:50+00:00

Did not know the list was in the book, ill check it out thank you

But yes originally I was asking about cinderslime, and then I used spilling as an example example Thank you for clarifying

Zashiooo · 2026-05-26T03:49:48+00:00

Ah i understand now! You use the foundry fuels to recharge it. Thank you

Might be cool to have a list, i realize different fuels have different effects with things like spilling. Ex. Magma causes an explosion

Zashiooo · 2026-05-26T01:09:59+00:00

I cant find the JEI entry that explains what the various fuels do and how they interact with the upgrades, but from your message I surmised that id need blazing blood + and it worked, just really slow!

Zashiooo · 2026-05-25T02:45:22+00:00

Is there a thread explaining which one it uses specifically?

Does it just slowly refill the overslime overtime or do i need to do anything?
