Enigmatica 2: Expert - Extended

Enigmatica 2: Expert - Extended is unofficial continuation of Enigmatica 2: Expert

The aim of the addon is to make E2E even more interesting and challenging. Balance it out as much as possible, but leave the most interesting stuff untouched.

Here are +200 up-to-date 1.12.2 mods (about 400 total).
Despite this, the modpack only takes 30% longer to load than the original E2E. And the FPS in the game is even higher.

10+ additional major mods and +200 tweaking and Quality of Life addons. Some notable of them:

	New Content		QOL		Performance
	Thaumic Augmentation		Lootr		Particle Culling
	Construct's Armory		Traveler's Backpack		Sledgehammer
	LittleTiles		Flopper		Thaumic Speedup
	Rats		Hole Filler Mod		CensoredASM
	Tinkers' Evolution		Vaultopic		Had Enough Items

See full list in MODS.md

🧰 No OP items. No exploits. Less cheese No item should disable bunch of other items. Work towards crafting the powerful items, or use less powerful alternatives. The Angel Ring is harder to give way to all other flight options. Сan no longer be easily cheesed through the mob stripping farm..
💡 Better balance Generators production carefully tweaked. TCon materials reworked, OP traits remapped. Mobs spawn with random TCon's weapons. Is no longer the only correct option.
🏔️ More adventuring Better caves, additional structures, more loot, reworked planets. Exploration is optional - you can finish the modpack without even going into Twilight Forest. Added a variety of new resources and unique terrain on planets and other dimensions.
📖 Clear guide Quests and recipes reveal unpopular "hidden" mechanics More Quest chapters describing "forgotten" items
🎿 Less Strict Tedious recipes and whole branches of mods can be skipped with alternate recipes. Whole modpack can be beaten in Peaceful mode
🧱 New mechanics Added new unique crafting mechanics, adding diversity to crafting ways and other essences now have their unique mechanics to turn into ore.
🌌 Skyblock Skyblock is built-in modpack. You only need to change starting dimension Skyblock is expert-expert version and can be very tedious
