Options

What the pack is:

TL;DR: Large tech-focused kitchen-sink pack with a huge amount of design/decoration mods, with a choice on skyblock or overworld.. or both, and a focus on balance, AKA no power-creep mods.

Longer answer:

A kitchen-sink tech pack with a lot of design mods. I wanted a pack that fit as many tech and design mods as possible, where each mod adds something unique. Together allowing for limitless building potential.

I also wanted to give players the option of doing a skyblock or overworld playthrough, so you're given that choice at the start, and can work your way up to going in between dimensions more freely down the line.

Would I say that this pack is good for beginners? If I'm being honest no… there aren't quests to guide you, some of the recipes are made harder or just different, and some of the more beginner friendly features and mods aren't included. It's also not a pack that has a wholesome balance of tech and magic. That being said I wouldn't call this an expert pack either. It's something in the middle and also something by itself. The most appealing parts of it will also be its biggest detractors. Not having a definitive end-game is intentional. The pack is made for people who like setting their own goals, but having more options than vanilla affords them.

What makes the pack stand out:

Balance. No Tinkers, no draconic, thaumcraft, chickens, mystical agriculture, project e... no mods that take center-stage. There are a few end-game items, but for the most part, the mod you choose to focus on is more or less equal to any other mod you might choose.
