Equivalent Escape
"The old gods have sent their minions after me. They shredded my defenses, my armor and my home. I can hear them gnawing on my last line of defense, and death will follow. Unless..."
And so I ripped out a random page of my mystical book of dimensional teleportations and cast it. Just to find me in an odd place somewhere in the Realm of Life, with no tools, no weapons, no power, and no way to get back home. But with a burning desire for revenge!

This is a SkyBlock-like puzzle modpack where you try to unlock items for your ProjectE table with Botania as your companion, and finally try to fight the Old Gods of AbyssalCraft.
You start in the Garden of Glass map with nothing but dirt and some roots to give you the basic Botania flowers. From there you will try to figure out how to unlock various items. Almost all items have an EMC value, so a lot of the grind with those mods is eliminated thanks to your ProjectE table. While ProjectEx is also included, this pack is about solving puzzles and not about generating insane amounts of EMC. Actually getting EMC in sufficient quantities is part of the puzzle. Once you got your basics setup you can begin on working through AbyssalCraft and find a way to kill the Old Gods that tormented you initially. But beware: those fights are not going to be easy!
Everything is lightly guided through quests to help you through the mods if you have no experience with them. Those quests are however only designed as hints and will not solve the puzzles for you. They also provide a background story for your entertainment. Technically all quests are optional, so if you already know how to handle Botania and AbyssalCraft you are free to ignore them. And for those who love them achievement quests are included as well.
This pack was made for single player, but you should be able to play it with a friend.
A small note on grinding: generally some items require you to grind something, however for certain very rare items I made some modifications so grind does not get too excessive. Rule of thumb: if it takes you more than an hour of grinding to get something you are most likely doing it wrong.
