RAD2 FAQ: Please Read these questions before asking anywhere else.
Equipment
1.
Q: How do I Salvage Items?
A: Shift-Right-Click a Smithing Table. There is also a quest that explains this in the features|mechanics tab.
2.
Q: How do I disenchant?
A: Use the tome of scrapping, the book of disenchanting, or the tome of hungering knowledge.
3.
Q: Okay, and how do I use the book of disenchanting?
A: Right-click a player-placed grave with a grave's soul. A grave's soul is a floating purple orb that appears around these graves after a while. They can also spawn behind blacksmith structures (not the village ones).
4.
Q: Why can't I apply X enchantment to an item?
A: If it is in your inventory hold Left Alt on the book to inspect all its enchantments. Press U on one of the enchantments to see what it can be applied to. The menu added by Unique Enchantments also shows what enchantments it is incompatible with. If it doesn't have any, its probably bugged or disabled so just grindstone it down into xp.
Note: Enchantments above the max level (through apotheosis, apex upgrading, ancient tomes, etc.) won't appear in jei recipe screen, but often still work.
5.
Q: Why can't I get enchanted books from librarians?
A: They no longer sell them in this pack to encourage getting them from exploring. Seriously how is breaking and placing a lectern over and over fun smh
6.
Q: How can I get mending then?
A: There are multiple different types of mending in this pack. Life mending and Ender mending for example. There are also many other enchantments that can repair your items like Warriors Grace, Ender Marksman and Reinforced. Look for items that have it when exploring, fishing, and slaying champions and use the various disenchanting methods from the "how do I disenchant" question above.
Additionally after unlocking the end one can more reliably obtain the various types of mending through the Better End Infusion Pedestal.
7.
Q: Is there any storage bigger than chests?
A: Backpacks can be used as chests since they are placeable. The storage mod will link to the backpacks just like chests.
8.
Q: How do I get rid of the annoying bat following me? / How to get rid of constant bat sounds?
A: Take off your Spelunker Armor / Cave Crawler Armor. You will then have to kill the bat with indirect damage like lava. It won't respawn if you don't have the armor worn.
9.
Q: How do I repair XY item?
A:
Side Note: Runic anvil will only repair relics if you have xp points (the green part of xp bar)
10.
Q: How to repair Dungeons Gear Items?
A: By default every armor can be repaired using either string, iron ingots, or bones, or leather, or oak logs
-bone: bones
-cloth/robe: string
-heavy_plate: iron ingot
-hide: bones
-light_plate: iron ingot
-medium_plate: iron ingot
-pelt: leather
-wither_bone: bone (not wither bones)
-wood (beehive): oak log HAS TO BE OAK LOGS, no other wood type
Weapons: Wooden Planks
Artifacts: Bottle of enchanting
Bows and Crossbows cannot be repaired through materials. You have to use mending or another bow of the same type.
11.
Q: I noticed you can apply Protection on every item, what does that do?
A: Protection on any item makes it take longer to despawn. This is part of the vanilla changes made by Unique Enchantments.
Best Best Best
12.
Q: What is the best Enchantment?
A: This is an extremely vague question that can depend on many various factors, like on a weapon what mobs you are fighting, or like on tools, if you want to silk touch blocks or not, and if the enchantments work well together. For example the enchantment Focus Impact increases damage the lower your weapon's attack speed is. This is great on axes but terrible on daggers.
13.
Q: What is the best armor/weapon in the game?
A: It is best to use the armor that fits your needs the most. Armor is capped at 60, so try to get armor that grants special abilities rather than just focusing on stats alone. Weapons mainly rely on enchantments to deal their damage, so once again use a weapon with a secondary ability rather than just focusing on its attack damage.
14.
Q: Best specialization to pick?
A: Try to pick the one that would best suit your playstyle and what pmmo stats you want to level up the most. If you really can't decide, Warrior is a good pick when starting out as it has the most simple yet effective kit. We try to make them as closely balanced as possible but if you find one to be a bit too weak compared to the rest you can discuss it in the dreams' modpacks discord in the r-a-d-2 channel, or suggest it in the issues section here on the GitHub.
Differences between other modpacks
15.
Q: How do I pick up spawners?
A: You can't. Sorry. Spawners also disappear after 50 spawns, so they are temporary anyways.
16.
Q: What do spirit orbs do?
A: They are used to upgrade the paraglider's stamina, and also open Gateways.
17.
Q: Why is my health lower than before after I died?
A: This can happen for 5 different reasons:
- You are wearing the broken heart/phylactery charm
- You are wearing the Ring of the Seven Curses.
- You have the berserker enchant on your chestplate while having 200+ exp levels.
- You have the reckless enchant on your chestplate.
- You had an item with death's odium (if playing an older version, it is disabled now)
Answer for 1: It slowly regenerates every minecraft morning. Sleep to get it back faster. Answer for 2: You will have to head back to your death spot and retrieve the soul crystal that dropped. Answer for 3: Simply store the exp until you are back down below level 200. Answer for 4: Remove the enchant from your chestplate/inventory. Answer for 5: You will have to eat a cookie enchanted with Death's odium. Must be a stack of at least 2 cookies to work.
18.
Q: How can I mine multiple blocks in an area (like the Mattock's 3x3 mining in RAD 1)?
A: The Etherium Pickaxe, Axe & Shovel are endgame tools that can mine multiple blocks similar to the Mattock, you can also make an ars spell with the Break glyph and AOE glyph to mine a bigger area, the Astral Breaker can also mine a 3x3 area.
19.
Q: Why do spawners look like this?
A: Spawners have a limit of spawning 50 mobs
20.
Q: Why can I never find heart containers from paraglider statues?
A: Heart Containers are disabled in this pack. The advancement is still granted by having full stamina from statues.
Gui & Controls
21.
Q: What is the blue bar on the bottom left of my screen?
A: That's the soul bar, added by the Dungeons Gear mod. It is used by certain artifacts from the mod, and you can fill it up by defeating mobs while having items with the Soul Gathering attribute equipped.
22.
Q: What are Trinkets?
A: Unlike Curios these use a special menu. They grant passive buffs to the player, and more slots can be unlocked with xp. The menu is opened with R by default but it conflicts with some other binds so you need to change it.
23.
Q: What does the blue/grey feather icons mean?
A: It is the dodge meter. Pressing Left Alt and WSA or D causes the player to leap in that direction, gaining brief invulnerability during the dodge. Also a great mobility tool. Grey feathers are unusable and indicate armor weight. Stronger armor grants more gray feathers. The Lightweight enchantment reduces the gray feathers.
24.
Q: There is an inventory on my screen! How do I get rid of it?
A: Press I to hide it.
25.
Q: How do I get rid of the cube next to my crosshair?
A: You enabled rotation lock. Press K to turn it back off. Rotation lock makes all the blocks you place face in the same direction.
26.
Q: I accidentally removed the trashcan slot from my inventory! How do I get it back?
A: Press T while in the inventory to get it back.
27.
Q: I keep auto-jumping and can't turn Auto-jump off!
A: Press H to toggle between auto-jump, auto-step, and none.
28.
Q: Why can't I veinmine blocks?
A: Only ores and logs can be veinmined in this pack.
Project MMO Stats
29.
Q: How do I levelup light?
A: light you gain from certain mobs dread mobs, dragons, the wither, and bandits from atum, Twilight Forest bosses, and the shade from greek fantasy to name a few.
30.
Q: How do I level shadow?

31.

32.
Q: How do I level Alchemy?
A: Brew Potions in a Brewing Stand or craft certain potion ingredients.
33.
Q: How do I level dragonslayer?
A: Kill the Ender Dragon or one of the Ice and Fire Dragons. Each awards 300 xp, increased when a dragon skull is in your offhand, you are using a dragon bone weapon, or using another item which boosts dragonslayer xp. Additionally the Komodo dragon gives 0.1 dragonslayer but this is more as a joke and is not a reliable way to get the xp.
34.
Q: What is the max level for skills?
A: 200.
35.
Q: Why can't I use boomerang/phantasmal blade / any other melee that throws projectiles despite having the requirements?
A: Pmmo considers any projectile to be Magic or Archery even if it came from a melee weapon. For the spartan weapons you can put them in the offhand and they will work. Otherwise you will have to level up your magic.
36.
Q: Why does my weapon sometimes say I don't meet the requirements even thought I have the correct combat/archery requirements?
A: This sometimes happens when you deal magic damage while holding a melee weapon, for example from thorns damage. It does fix itself once your magic stat is high enough.
Ice and Fire Dragons
37.
Q: How to get Dragon Eggs?
A: I assume you mean the Ice and Fire ones here, you have to kill and loot a tier 4/5 dragon that has no spots and more curvy horns.
38.
Q: Why can't I find any Ice and Fire dragons?
A: Dragons only spawn 1000 blocks away from the world center. Even then they are very rare.
39.
Q: How do I loot a dead dragon?
A: Right-click with empty hand.
Dimensions
40.
Q: I can't build a nether portal! How do I get into the nether?
A: Find dimensional plasma. This is a purple fluid found near the bottom of the world surrounded by netherrack.
41.
Q: How do I get out of the nether?
A: Find a reclaimer. It looks like a black beacon. Place gold blocks in the missing spots next to it and stand in the beacon to travel home.
42.
Q: Why can't I damage the Hydra in the Twilight Forest? / Why am I burning even though I killed the Minoshroom?
A: You need to eat the Meef Stroganoff to gain access to the hydra swamps.
There is also a known bug where multipart mobs (naga & hydra) sometimes can't be damaged by melee attacks. This seems to be an issue with certain forge versions. Shooting arrows or other projectiles will still hurt these bosses however.
43.
Q: How do I get out of tropicraft?
A: Same way you got in, drinking a pina colada on a beach chair during a sunset. A beach chair can also be crafted entirely from bamboo in case you lack wool.
