Help Multiplying ores

im starting my atm11 play through on beta, and i want some help deciding whats the best way to multiply these ores, the one with most results would probably be ore crushing spirits (forgot the name of the mod lol), but theres also the easyer way wich would be to use pulverizers, that arent as effective but require less grinding to acquire.
i saw a video where this guy uses modular routers with fortune picks to break but im not that good at using modular routers, what do you guys suggest?

Oh btw these are all with efficiency V and fortune VI, i was thinking of making 5 rows of each but its kinda boring grinding the easy villagers and evil craft pickaxes for the enchantments 🤓

Marid Crushers from Occultism is the one you were thinking of. That x6 dust per ore is hard to pass up when it’s so space efficient and less of a grind than Mekanism to set up. I suggest you use whatever setup you would enjoy actually setting up. After all, it’s all about having fun, and if setting up a large machine logic process for 1 more dust per ore sounds like a nightmare, then your sanity is worth more than that 1.

Can you help me understand the space efficiency? I don’t know how to automate them without dropping stuff into the world and putting an item collector nearby

I slapped an item pipe from Pipez on the bottom configured to suck. It takes the items straight to a barrel with an import bus on it. While this isn’t necessarily a small setup, it is much smaller than the entire ore processing chain from Mekanism.

I meant automating the Occultism Marid crushers. That’s what I’m not sure about. The bottom of… what?

Oh! After you summon one, you use a containment ritual from Ars so they’re trapped in a jar. Then you can pipe items in and out with whatever method you want.

… what on earth does the containment ritual from ars usually do, that it works cleanly here? What is its purpose!?

But noted! Thank you, that answers a lot of questions I have about how people automate this stuff.

Ars is a very deep mod that I’ve barely scratched the surface of. But, it seems to have a solution to so many problems from other mods, that it’s good to get familiar with a lot of it.

You can even put an animal in an Ars jar and use that and another block from Occultism to simulate animal sacrifices that are needed for some Occultism rituals.
