Apothic Compats guide for FTB StoneBlock 4 1.9.0

Apothic Compats is part of this pack's mod list at version 0.2.4, shipped as the file apothic_compats-0.2.4.jar. It was first included in FTB StoneBlock 4 1.0.0 or earlier, so it has been in the pack for a long time.^[1]

The sources for this pack only confirm that the mod is installed and which version it is. They do not say what it adds or changes, so this page sticks to what is confirmed.^[1]

Same as in the FTB StoneBlock 4 1.21.0 guide

Good news first: there's nothing you need to craft to get going with Apothic Compats. The only material I could confirm for this mod is its tooltip text, and that text describes affixes, which are bonus properties on gear. It doesn't describe any items or recipes.^[2]

What the mod adds

The mod's text entries define affixes for several weapon types: melee weapons, dart shooters, potato cannons, scythes and staffs. Most of them also have an ancient variant with the same description. So when you find gear with one of these affixes, check its tooltip.^[2]

• Melee: Bloodied makes you deal more damage the lower your health is.^[2]
• Dart shooters and potato cannons: Magical makes your darts deal magic damage.^[2]
• Scythes and staffs: Cleaving gives your attacks a chance to also hit nearby enemies.^[2]
• Scythes and staffs: Executing kills enemies that fall below a certain share of their max health.^[2]
• Scythes and staffs: Festive gives slain enemies a chance to be a Loot Piñata.^[2]
• Scythes and staffs: Thunderstruck makes your attacks deal damage to nearby enemies.^[2]

What I couldn't confirm

Unverified I found no confirmed recipes, quests or guidebook entries for this mod in this pack, so I can't give you a first-items-to-craft order. Pack-specific values such as affix chances and thresholds are also unverified.

Apothic Compats doesn't add machines, multiblocks, power, fluids or automation. The sources for this pack only show it adding compatibility affixes for certain weapon types, plus one startup setting for custom loot curios. So this section is short, and I'm only covering what the sources actually confirm.^[2][3]

Weapon affixes

The mod's language file describes affixes for several weapon types: dart shooters, potato cannons, scythes, staves, and a general melee group. Each affix also has an ancient version with the same description text.^[2]

• Magical (dart shooters and potato cannons): your darts deal magic damage.^[2]
• Bloodied (melee): you deal more damage the lower your health is, up to a maximum bonus.^[2]
• Cleaving (scythes and staves): attacks have a chance to also hit a limited number of nearby enemies.^[2]
• Executing (scythes and staves): enemies below a certain percentage of their max health are executed.^[2]
• Festive (scythes and staves): slain enemies have a chance to become a Loot Piñata.^[2]
• Thunderstruck (scythes and staves): your attacks deal damage to nearby enemies.^[2]

The descriptions only show placeholders for the actual percentages, damage amounts and enemy counts. Those values aren't confirmed by the sources, so check the in-game tooltip on a weapon that rolls one of these affixes.^[2]

Custom loot curios

The mod has a startup option, Curios.enableCustomCurios, which controls whether custom loot curios are enabled. This pack sets it to false, so those curios are turned off here.^[3]

Unverified How the affixes are obtained (loot, upgrading or crafting), and whether the mod has any other systems, can't be confirmed from the available sources. No recipes produce this mod's items.

Apothic Compats has very little to configure in this pack. The one option the pack's config file shows is in the startup config, so it only takes effect when the game launches.^[4]

Custom loot curios

The option you're most likely to look for is Curios.enableCustomCurios. Its in-file description asks whether custom loot curios should be enabled, and this pack sets it to false. So the custom loot curios are turned off here.^[4]

Unverified The sources don't show the mod's default for this option, so it's unconfirmed whether the pack changed it from the default. If you want custom loot curios, you would have to set it to true in the startup config, but what that would add in this pack hasn't been verified.
