Simple Skyblock

[rilzor]

After looking at some of the custom Skyblock maps available they all seem to add too much.
I have taken the original Skyblock map and just added an extra island with items for brewing a potion of weakness to enable villager curing.
yes it is a grind that's kind of the point.
pictures below.

Forgot to say this is targeted towards the Direwolf20 pack for 1.6.4 but should be ok for any packs

The reason we add to much is because its modded minecraft. In my map, most every thing is just trading with the exception of a few challange islands for fun, an end portal, and a dungeon(which was suggested by someone on my thread). Its not like we are doing it because we want to, its because we feel like its necessary. but still, its a good concept to keep it as simple as possible

Finally a map for 1.6.4. Took long enough.

I know there are people who prefer the challenge islands and extras, however I prefer the simple feel of the skyblock original where you make your own objectives to do.
I made this for myself and figured may as well upload it for others to possibly enjoy.

I sort of lost interest. Bleh.[DOUBLEPOST=1389077362][/DOUBLEPOST]

Also, since it is basically a vanilla map, you can greatly expand your horizons in vanilla with this map. You gain access to redstone, glass, diamond tools and armor and iron from golems. That plus modded villagers gives you a heck of a lot more to do.

You do know Skyblock has chalenges and objectives on the main page, right?

I do, but i think of those as "Heres what you can/should do" rather than a creative survival map, which is what i treat it as.

Since you enjoy the challenge of starting with nothing, have you tried adding this mod instead of adding extra starting items?

not going to lie, that looks amazing, i will probably use it next time i feel like starting again.

will your mod conflict with the direwolf pack??

 

[Erasmus Crowley]

I know there is a conflict with the default item IDs for factorization. FTB changes a lot of those though, so you would have to try it and let us know.

 

[goreae]

The only conflict is witchwater and molten electrum having the same ID.

I know that feel.

EDIT
Technically you don't need to give them the blaze rod. You can obtain one legit in vanilla skyblock.
