Is the reagent change for bandage temporary because of growth being disabled? I hope so because it doesn't seem like a good reagent to me...

Its not a bad regent, but i personally dont like to mine after I've gotten about 5k of personal money to spend on class switching and building a golden house, I prefer farming, so this is a real kick in the gut to me. Though I guess it cant be helped since reeds dont grow. Last map when growth was turned off I already had about 5 double chest of reeds.

I second the views on the reagent change for bandage. It should only be redstone until growth is re-implemented, then I think it should switch back to paper.
I also dislike the reagent change for hellgate since I'm planning on going Necro, but it's fair, so I can't complain. :p

You can grow reeds in a furnace with Saplings

They've said that they're working on a way to bring down lag so they can re-implement growth.
Kain's just saying it's not impossible to obtain sugarcane.

Agreed with jw - Redstone isn't a bad reagent for anything, seeing as it's relatively common underground and isn't too pricey, but paper is more appropriate for bandage, once growth is re-enabled and reeds can be farmed easily without the need to go hunting for saplings. Until then, redstone is fine.

Herocraft WOO :D

Haha, I'm so sorry, man... Hang on, are these live yet? Are you sure you can't use obsidian to get out?
Looking at the list most if not all of these changes are already live
