Bleeding Winter

[BugFix]  Would you look at that, present bugs already, the Travelling Merchant rarity has been increased drastically providing more of a difficult process of obtaining emeralds and zombies have been changed to prevent them from teleporting extremely close to the player, the festive creeper will no longer destroy blocks whether charged or not and deals 1 unit of damage to allied mobs.

Welcome to the Variety of Death update, this update is generally focused on providing new and unique threats while trying to pull away from organized and predictable invasions. Introducing 20+ new mobs to spice up the survival experience all with they're unique abilities and general rewards introducing new threats to defend from and new opportunities for villager trading and starting villages, Dynamic tree support for the Twilight Forest general trees, a completely new GUI for food consumption and food saturation, altitude adjustments completely freezing the sky to unsurvivable levels to discourage skybasing as well as the void starving the player of heat the closer they get towards it and removing invasions and sleeping.

General tips for surviving: They're are several ways to survive the harsh weather the player is provided with several options ranging from advanced techs such as the heat regulator and the portable heat regulator to much simpler early game solutions such as furnaces and campfires (kindled with sticks) even sprinting, the farther you survive the more options for surviving are available to you such as traps like mines to barbed-wire fence and nails the player is also available to advanced defences from a variety of different turrets all with unique abilities to increase your survival chance.

Creating energy: Creating energy without a visual explanation can be quite difficult for some so I highly recommend watching a video or a more in-depth guide on providing energy through Thermal Expansion and extremely advance but equally information-heavy NuclearCraft, my insight would be to start simple like a steam dynamo to provide enough energy for some turrets and utility support.

Farmlife: Creating animals isn't so simple anymore and farming is more important than ever in this mod pack to create a proper breeding pen you will be required to breed 2 animals of the different sex such an example would be a bull and a cow, however, it isn't that simple animals don't breed manually but rather naturally when provided water and food most likely in a trough filled with either water or the animal's required food and some hay for them to sleep on, this difficulty comes with its benefits providing more beneficially foods through hunger points and buffs.
