The Essentials pack was made for people who want a light mix of tech, magic, and building mods. I found that a lot of the more beefier packs that included some of my favorite mods didn't run well on computers with low specs. I made this pack so everybody can enjoy some of the more popular mods with less added fluff that will bog down slower machines. You can craft various machines from Thermal Dynamics, Rf Tools, Applied Energistics. process ore and build tools to help you mine better, or maybe you want to do some farming and cooking with Pams Harvest craft and cooking for block heads. Feel like decorating? The furniture mod included can give you plenty of options to make the ideal minecraft home.
