Hello and welcome to my Biomes Builds N Battles Pack
NOTE: MODPACK WILL BE PORTING TO 1.19.4 SO MAJOR CHANGES WILL OCCUR, PREVIOUS INSTALLMENTS WILL NOT WORK AND SOME MODS WILL BE REMOVED/SWAPPED OUT FOR OTHERS
~- BIOMES -~
The general amazingness of vanilla is still widely appealing in this pack, but with other mods in the mix, it has a very nice blend of uniqueness
The magical forest from thaumcraft, in a vanilla varient, the forest is large and sizable, and quite common. Looks like a forest/swamp with less water.
There is also the magnificant addition of Oh the Biomes You'll Go refabricated, which comes with many different types of terrain styles.
It also extends into other dimensions, giving a special touch to wherever you go, but it's most present in the overworld.
Last but not lease, these mods are kind of a pair, but seperate to their own dimension, we have BetterNether and BetterEnd
Both have fantastic visual appeal, and come with alternative materials that can be used to actually survive in that dimension.
~- BUILDS -~
With the biomes comes all the building blocks for even the most elaborate design of structures, either in the wild or one you create yourself.
There are quite a few by name that add building blocks so I'll leave it to your discovery. But you won't find any shortage of things to use.
There are numerous structures in the wild you can find and some will be peaceful and some will be dangerous, by that I mean VERY.
As with the overworld, comes a plentiful variety of things from both the nether and the end, just waiting to be found by you!
Some things may take a bit longer as they are progression locked by the skills mod, but given enough time the world will be yours.
~- BATTLES -~
Combat in this pack is fairly simple, but also has some depth to it, you will find weapons of various sorts locked behind a skill
Strength and Defense are the main factors to gaining weapon usage, infact some require material, but not skill to use.
All thats left is the wild challenges out there for you to discover. And there's more than a few surprises.
In this adventure you will experience a great expansion on the vanilla world as you discover more biomes, rich with flora and finesse
Structures in more shapes and forms than you can imagine, but a diverse comfort in the freedom of the widespread caves and cliffs
Every encounter will be different than usual, new features to discover, new buildings to find, and the enemies/friendlies are custom made
~-More Info-~
This pack will be moderately difficult as there are some nasty things out there hidden away, but the skills mod will give you the edge
You will start in a random place, with a house to place and call your own, many different forms are available. The rest is up to you.
The pack comes with multiple optimisation, options for gameplay, and shader support for breathtaking scenery, and an easy option menu.
But thats not all you will find, there are structures with ancient danger, special dungeons, ruins, monestaries, hobbit homes and many more.
Progression is based on player skills, you start with some points, and earn more through xp gain, resulting in unlocks of different things.
This pack runs quite efficiently for 1.18 only needing 6-8gb ram even with shaders and textures, sodium has been configured for you to run well.
Combat has been overhauled to be slightly faster, with numerous enhancements to follow through progression and enchants.
The enchant system itself has been changed to be more selective and less random, including new enchants in the mix.
If you want a serious adventure this is definately the pack to play, future updates will provide a server pack you can use once it's stable.
Please enjoy this pack to the fullest!
