General Balancing

 

Balancing  in a modpack is the  2nd most important thing when  making it.
But instead of chaning tons and tons of recipes, you  can simply add mods that make the game difficult..
In what aspect?
In item obtaining and using...
Such as Reskillable!
A mod  that requires progression through exp for the player  to use better armour and items  such as:
- A full  set of diamond armour requires  the defense to be upgraded.
- Swinging a diamond enchanted sword will do nothing if you don't have the required levels of attack.
- To make an anvil you need to upgrade  your magic.
Many different  vanilla aspects are affected by this mod!

Adding this mod or similar like X Life health.
These type of mods make the game  "hard" not  un-playable...

Tough as nails is another great mod that hardens survival!
It adds well temperature and a thirst bar!
If you just happen to take a walk outside on a desert biome in the day, you'll start to get hotter...
So same goes for a colder biome but you'll feel hypothermia!
This mod also makes when a stone is broken to drop small rocks (of each rock type)
To counter the freezing - heating, 2 new enchantments are now added with the mod.
Cooling and warming!

Note, if you take the time to search curseforge for mods like these, you will find an abudant amount!
As many cool mods exist and keep on coming out!
Well, Merry Christmas and happy holidays everyone!
