What version are you playing on because in one of the newer versions the magic water has been disabled. And wait until spice of life kicks in... Have fun with that. And finally good luck in nether.(haven't gone there myself yet but planning to once I get a nice tinkers sword)Thought I'd give this a go, here's some feedback:
Bad or icky things:
Enviromine Body Temperature. Not sure what is going on, but this seems hardly worth it. Body temperature hardly changes no matter the external temperature. As a user of an earlier version of Enviromine, I've found keeping an eye on your body temperature pretty vital. Just swimming a river can easily lead to hypothermia. But, in Blast Off, I can stroll around the frozen deserts in the middle of a snow storm at night, and not worry at all.
Starting area - a lot of the things you start with make some of the quests pretty obsolete. Bonemeal and Watering can (aka "cheaty" infinite bonemeal). The non-water water in the spatial farm (infinite drinking water and glass bottles)
Roguelike Dungeons made out of snow, and these are supposed to be old bomb shelters? Seems odd/inconsistent.
After a while of playing, FPS plummets like crazy. Haven't established what is going on. I replaced the minimap with Opis, but once I reloaded, world was fine. Opis was also quite happy. Still investigating. Might be needing Fastcraft on my rig.
Battle music - default volume is crazily loud, I personally disabled it as it offers nothing (for me)
Minimap mod - had to change it, when it blurs as you move, it's just painful on the eyes
ItemPhysic mod I may remove. Makes finding dropped items more difficult, might be configurable
Mob Amputation/Dismemberment does make things a little annoying, lots of body parts everywhere that get in the way.
MyFit - tried it until I got the first bonus, and put the item in a chest. Gaining such a fast speed boost is annoying. I can't really see why it's in the pack.
Good things:
Taken me a while work out how to progress with my mining. Just obtained by first bit of smashed copper as a result.
Great base design
Whatever mod that causes torches to set fire to trees, 10/10!
Encumbrance system and custom stack sizes, interesting concept. Putting it here under good until I discover it's too annoying
Overall, seems a good map, but, doesn't feel like a "survival" map, even though it's got a lot of survival mods in it. I think it's because you start with so much, a large element of the danger vanishes. My biggest challenge now is to work out/remember how to make a clay bucket.
Hmmm abit more specific? what stuff are considered alot? XDAs I've said, I've mined my first piece of copper. That's as far as I've got. Compared to other similar style maps, this one does give you a lot of stuff from the start.

Now that I think of it, most skyblocks start you with bonemill & 1-2 oak saplings. There is at least 2 that I know of that give you a watering can as a quest reward, and 1 of those removed the recipe for it, so the one you get rewarded is that only one. Actually there really isn't much different given in this pack that's not in most that I have played in the last 7 months.
Is there another way to heat up the Crucible Furnace? It's eaten over two stacks of coal and took along time to heat up, just to make one titanium rod!
I suggest using a cleaver. I believe that steel does the same damage as manallyn but with lower durability. Might want to use quartz you get from the spires to upgrade sharpness. After you get necrotic bones you can add those on for life steal. To get steel melt down chain armor in a smelteryWhat version are you playing on because in one of the newer versions the magic water has been disabled. And wait until spice of life kicks in...

Extremely fun modpack, but there are few things that are confusing. NOTE: I am playing on the latest version.
1) I don't get anything when I use a hammer on meteors, is there a specific one you need?
2) I have fully levelled up my bone pickaxe, but I can't find out where I can get/make copper to upgrade it.
So how do you get water in the barrel for clay?

You can hammer hardened gravel to get stone pieces that craft into cobblestone.Probably a really dumb question, but how do I get cobblestone?
Edit: I found some by
digging down a bit from the second level of the snow dungeon near spawn, and found a dungeon made of assorted stone bricks and cobblestone
but I'm not sure if this is the intended way.
